DALLAS, TX–(Marketwire – September 16, 2010) – Addison Health Systems, Inc. (AHS), considered a pioneer (since 1996) of Electronic Health Records with its WritePad™ EHR product line, has applied on September 1^st for October 2010 EHR certification with the Austin-based Drummond Group, Inc. AHS has been very successful by offering unique capabilities for computerizing doctor specialties in pain management, alternative, sports medicine, behavioral psych, occupational and pain/rehab care.

The U.S. government announced in February of 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The ARRA act included $19 billion under the portion of its HITECH Act to promote the adoption of Electronic Health Record (EHR) technology in healthcare. Starting in 2011, medical providers can receive up to $44,000 or more by demonstrating what has termed as “meaningful use” of certified EHR technology to be eligible for government funds. 

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through its Office of National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC), has awarded certification accreditation to two organizations: The Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT) and Drummond Group, Inc. Drummond Group announced it would be taking applications immediately while CCHIT will start taking applications on September 20, 2010. 

“It has been a long process of waiting for the ONC to determine what organizations would be put in charge of EHR accreditation. Thus AHS made the decision to move forward immediately with Drummond Group, Inc. on the 1^st allowable sign up date so our thousands of clients could be eligible for up $44,000 stimulus money,” said Greg Winterkamp, CEO/President of AHS. “In fact with our ePrescribing partner, WritePad will accomplish ARRA certification from both Drummond and CCHIT!”

Drummond Group brings years of government software certification experience to the table. The company had been involved with the ONC throughout its evaluation of certification organizations. CCHIT was originally appointed by the government in 2005 as the sole certification organization and had certified EHRs under the CCHIT-created guidelines. However, with the ARRA legislation, the federal government (ONC) was provided the authority to refine and add additional criteria that now make up the new meaningful use guidelines.

“I think it is crucial that an additional certifying organization was added. Competition brings down certifying costs and adds additional controls to define practical capability providers need for using an EHR. The term ‘meaningful use’ is a product of this.” Mr. Winterkamp added, “I was very skeptical when the government got involved in the definition of the certification guidelines however, I have been impressed that so much has been done in a short period of time. The Stage 1 guidelines that the ONC has defined for 2011 certification are helpful to allow many providers to incorporate EHRs in an efficient manner.”

Scott Giddiens, Director of Sales at AHS, stated, “We are proud that WritePad will be one of the first EHRs to be certified in the U.S.! That is very important for our clients and the many prospective doctors that have been sitting on the fence waiting, to get the assurance that our EHR will be government certified.”

About Addison Health Systems, Inc.

Addison Health Systems, Inc. has been in business since 1985. With the release of the WritePad’s EHR in 1996, AHS became a pioneer in computerizing doctors. The WritePad suite of products is being used by over 4,500 physicians and, with support staff, over 17,000 users daily for their clinical documentation needs. Patients can log into stations and fill out intake information that automatically updates into the doctor’s workflow of encounter data. WritePad is utilized by pain management, chiropractic, PMR, physical therapy, osteopathic and many other physical medicine and rehabilitative care facilities and hospitals. From electronic billing, practice management, EHR documentation, ePrescribing to 3-dimensional patient education and exercise videos, the WritePad increases clinical compliance, efficiency and 3^rd party reimbursements.

TAMPA, FL–(Marketwire – September 16, 2010) –  Sage North America today announced that the Sage Healthcare Division, a provider of electronic health records (EHR) and practice management software, has launched its Customer Appreciation Program (CAP) that’s designed to say thank you to its existing customers and provide them with assistance toward adopting EHRs and achieving meaningful use requirements. Under this loyalty program, qualifying Sage customers can receive additional software to help them achieve federal stimulus incentives, manage care quality and evolve with the changes in healthcare today.

“For customers who have been part of the Sage Healthcare family, the Sage Customer Appreciation Program shows that not only do we appreciate their loyalty and commitment, but that we are invested in their success and want them to achieve their goals,” said Tony Ryzinski, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Sage Healthcare. “Many of our customers are asking how to achieve meaningful use compliance and benefit from stimulus funding. The Sage Customer Appreciation Program will help by reducing barriers practices face as they continue making investments in their business.”

Sage created the CAP to honor the commitment their customers have demonstrated by supporting Sage and its solutions over the years. More than a resource to help eligible Sage clients reach EHR and meaningful use, Sage considers CAP a rewards-style program.

Sage customers have the benefit of choice. Based on customer feedback, many practices would prefer to stay on the practice management system, such as Sage Medical Manager, they’ve used and trusted for years while they focus on implementing an EHR. Others are ready to make a bigger change and take advantage of the full Sage Intergy product family. Sage Intergy EHR and the Sage Intergy Meaningful Use Edition allow customers to select the best path for their practices.

“Navigating the complexities of the ever changing healthcare economy has been a major source of anxiety for many customers,” said Ryzinski. “Sage is committed to helping our customers evolve with these changes, meet upcoming regulatory requirements such as 5010 and ICD-10 as well as achieve meaningful use — all of which equate to better patient health care outcomes, which is always our ultimate goal.”

LAKE MARY, FL–(Marketwire – September 14, 2010) – PediaVision, a company dedicated to solving the critical problem of undiagnosed vision problems affecting thousands of children, today announced that Seminole County Public Schools has expanded its vision screening program to help identify more children whose vision problems could potentially threaten their ability to learn and inhibit academic performance. The school system is expanding its PediaVision screenings and instituting annual exams to include even more children in the district. Fifty-one schools in the district are now screening their entire schools, not just required grade levels. Also, with the help of local doctors and VisionQuest, parents unable to afford vision services for their kids can now receive eye glasses and vision exams at lower costs.

According to Prevent Blindness America, one in four school-aged children has a vision problem significant enough to affect learning. If caught early, most vision issues in children can be corrected providing them a better quality of life.

Since August 2009, Seminole County Public Schools has screened nearly 5,000 students with PediaVision devices, referring approximately 25-30 percent of them to eye care specialists. PediaVision is the only binocular vision device that produces highly accurate vision screenings with instant results for children of any age. The software produces written results and recommendations as to whether or not a subject should be referred to an eye care specialist. Conducted from three feet away, screenings are simple, non-invasive and as easy as taking a picture.

Britt Smith, executive director for exceptional student support services for Seminole County Public Schools, says while school districts in Florida and across the country face intense pressure to improve academic performance, many simply don’t realize the severity of undiagnosed vision problems and how they can negatively impact students. He selected PediaVision because of its accuracy, ease of use and the ability to screen large populations of students without having to increase personnel. He urges school districts to re-evaluate current vision screening methods and consider state-of-the-art technology to help kids.

“Traditional vision screening methods are inadequate. PediaVision screening devices offer accurate, instant results allowing thousands of kids across the district to be examined by eye care specialists and reap immediate benefits. We want students to get the help they need and break those barriers. Unfortunately, we all find ways to accommodate vision issues without properly identifying the underlining cause of the problem,” said Smith who was shocked when his 15-year old son failed a restricted driver’s license vision exam.

“This wasn’t an issue of a parent not taking his child to the doctor or lack of medical care access; it was a matter of accurate detection. I would trust the PediaVision device more than any other vision screening method I know of, and I love that we don’t have to increase staff to screen more kids,” he added.

Esther West, 2^nd vice district governor of district 49A, says Alaska’s main goal is to eradicate preventable blindness and has been responsible for more than 13,000 screenings in the state. For the last four years, the Lions of Alaska have used 14 devices and they recently ordered 12 more for their community health care center facilities in rural Alaska.

“With PediaVision, we can quickly tell if children have Amblyopia or ‘lazy eye’ and if we get them treatment early enough, it’s curable. If I had to compare PediaVision with our original screener, it’s the winner hands down. Before PediaVision, screening was a very cumbersome process because we had to wait for pictures to be interpreted by doctors to get results. With PediaVision, it takes more time to enter the data than it does to get results, and they’re very accurate,” said West.

She also said that it’s very easy to train people how to screen. “If you can type and follow instructions, you can screen with this device. PediaVision is unbelievable. It’s absolutely the best thing we’ve ever worked with.” 

West recalls how a PediaVision screening helped a student conquer behavioral problems in the classroom. “He frequently caused trouble because he couldn’t see. But nobody knew it. He was trying to take the attention away from himself so people wouldn’t know. We screened him and got him glasses. When I went back to the school a few months later, he ran up to me, grabbed my legs and said I was the lady who gave him his eyes.” According to national studies, approximately 70 percent of juvenile delinquents have a vision issue.

Wyoming also selected PediaVision for its Lions Early Childhood Vision project to reach large populations of children with developmental disabilities. The project is committed to ensuring all children in the state of Wyoming receive the highest quality eye care. Currently using 19 PediaVision devices, the state can now screen children in rural communities who are typically hard to reach.

Rebecca Allen, project coordinator, said they are thrilled with the device because it allows them to get quick, accurate readings even on the most difficult of children. “Children with developmental disabilities are 5 times more likely to have vision difficulties. In Wyoming, we’re working closely with parents and doctors to ensure that kids who are having vision difficulties are quickly identified and can get the help they need in a timely manner. With PediaVision, we trust the screenings. Parents are so ecstatic that they’re making immediate appointments for their kids to be seen by the eye doctor. We have very good follow up, and the kids who need help are getting it right away.”

PediaVision’s CEO David Melnik commented, “We are extremely pleased that schools and community projects across the U.S. have selected PediaVision. They are truly leading the way to bring revolutionary change in vision screening. Eighty percent of a child’s learning is visual, so a child’s ability to clearly see in the classroom is critical. We would like to encourage all schools, local communities, and national and state legislators across the country to consider new vision screening technology to help prevent vision problems in children.”

About PediaVision
PediaVision is dedicated to solving the critical problem of undiagnosed vision problems and transforming the lives of thousands of children each day by helping private medicine and public health systems provide thorough, automated and objective vision screening.

The company was initially founded by a team of optometrists and ophthalmologists. These medical professionals were confronted daily with the impact of permanent vision loss in children.

PediaVision has a proven technology and a management team with medical expertise and a strong track record of transforming industries. For more information about PediaVision, and to help the fight against undiagnosed vision problems in children, please visit www.pediavision.com.

MISSION VIEJO, CA–(Marketwire – September 14, 2010) –  SafeShot Technologies, LLC, a leader in safety syringe innovation, today announced the successful development and patent filings on a new “low dose” version of its revolutionary safety injection technology called the “Epiphany Ultra.” This technology allows for safe injections in 1ml and lower volumes using the same simple, single-handed vacuum retraction technology used in its larger versions. SafeShot Technologies Epiphany and now Epiphany Ultra are the world’s first and only available, full line of safe, compliant, simple and affordable technology that works equally well across the full spectrum of desired injection drug delivery needs, including pre-fills, clinical, home, consumer and immunization/vaccination.

The problem of infections and the transfer of blood borne illnesses due to injections have plagued the world for decades, causing needless suffering and deaths and costing the healthcare system an estimated $1.2 billion a year. SafeShot Technologies is focused on designing affordable safety technology to revolutionize the healthcare industry by protecting the nearly 1 million patients and frontline healthcare professionals who are stuck each year in the U.S., while preventing the global spread of HIV/Hepatitis which annually impacts 22 million people.

“This is a huge milestone for our engineering team and company because of the precision required in designing an ‘Ultra Low Dose’ safety syringe that is as simple and affordable as the Epiphany Ultra,” said Robert Beart, Emeritus Professor of Surgery at USC’s Keck School of Medicine and CEO of SafeShot. “Epiphany Ultra completes the entire spectrum of safe, compliant injection drug delivery in ‘all sizes’ while breaking the cost barriers that have prohibited healthcare facilities from broadly adopting the most effective safety technology for their facilities. Its innovative design saves time in training, administering injections, and we are proud to say, it will ultimately saves lives.”

The, Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act of 2000 requires healthcare facilities to create, maintain, and annually update information on commercially available technology designed to eliminate or minimize occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens. Yet many healthcare professionals are still not being equipped with safety solutions to eliminate exposure to blood borne pathogens and sharps injuries.

SafeShot Technologies identified the five key characteristics of a safe, effective and affordable solution to tackle the global issue of needlestick injuries and spread of HIV/Hepatitis from syringe re-use. “Omitting any one of these characteristics in syringe development directly jeopardizes the ability to give a safe shot or eradicate the issues of needlestick injury and syringe re-use,” said Michael J. Madden, Safeshot Technologies Board Member and former Vice President of Advocacy and Development for Providence Health & Services. “I’ve been in the hospital business for a long time, and needlestick injuries have always been an issue for me and for the institutions that I’ve managed.”

The Epiphany Safety Syringe meets all 5 key factors to safe injection drug delivery, including:

• The device must be “auto disabling” destructing after a single use
• The device must provide protection from accidental needlesticks
• The device must be safe through disposal, acting as it’s own sharps container
• The device must not create a blood splatter or aerosol
• And… the device must be affordable

With the global production of non-safety syringes in the tens of billions, a traditional reusable syringe can be produced for about 10 cents. Primarily due to the higher cost of safety syringes, hospitals have been slow to adopt the latest technology, despite legislation which mandates adoption of the best safety solutions. SafeShot’s Epiphany Syringe costs are comparable to a traditional syringe. The issues of accidental needlesticks, re-used needles, downstream injuries and biohazardous waste are directly addressed with this new innovation.

About SafeShot Technologies

SafeShot Technologies, headquartered in Mission Viejo, California, is a new generation safety syringe development company with the mission to solve the needlestick issue with innovative technology. The Epiphany Safety Syringe is the first patented vacuum-triggered, one-handed, single-use, auto-retractable, auto-disable safety syringe designed to provide superior value. SafeShot has more than a dozen U.S. patent applications and foreign counterparts in other major jurisdictions to address this growing problem.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA–(Marketwire – August 30, 2010) –  Today at VMworld 2010, QuorumLabs (www.QuorumLabs.com) announced a new release of the onQ Business Continuity Appliance that doubles previous performance and capacity. onQ 2.2 provides one-click instant recovery for up to 25 physical and virtual servers per appliance, and can scale to any number of servers using multiple appliances.

Unlike traditional multi-product enterprise solutions, onQ is a simple, turnkey appliance that pre-integrates a number of sophisticated technologies — such as replication, deduplication, snapshots & continual virtualization — into a single box. onQ automatically maintains and manages up-to-date virtual machine clones on a bare metal hypervisor to give companies high performance instant recovery in the event of a failure without requiring any additional hardware or software. onQ goes beyond off-site and on-line backup and makes complete business continuity easy and affordable — without the complexity, cost, or lengthy deployment projects required of traditional enterprise solutions.

“To provide an equivalent solution to what QuorumLabs has packaged into a single appliance requires a high level of engineering and an extended migration and integration project,” said Bob Boyer, chief marketing officer, Transcend United. “For small and mid-sized companies who need business continuity, this has been a barrier to deploying virtualization-based solutions since they don’t have the in-house expertise or the time. It’s a lot to tackle. That’s where onQ fits in: an easy to implement, easy to maintain and easy to test appliance.”

Price and Availability

QuorumLabs’ partners offer onQ in a variety of ways to meet customer needs, including via managed services, or dual-appliance configurations with up to 13 terabytes internal storage (expandable with external storage) starting at under $15,000 for a pair of replicating appliances.

BAY HARBOR, FL–(Marketwire – August 26, 2010) –  SmartMetric, Inc. (OTCBB: SMME) announced today that its fingerprint activated Biometric Data Card can be now used to provide the highest level of both security and portability for a person’s medical history and full medical records.

Colin Hendrick, President and CEO, stated, “Once again our research and development team has pioneered another exciting breakthrough in our Biometric Data Card. We believe that nothing like this exists anywhere in the world today. We are currently in negotiations with several worldwide corporate entities regarding the rollout and commercialization of our breakthrough products. We will be updating our shareholders as soon as possible on the status of these talks, as well as our previously announced legal actions against Visa and MasterCard.”

Unlike other portable solutions, the SmartMetric Data Card can store Gigabytes of medical information including full EKGs, complete CT and MRI digital images, and similar data making up an individual person’s complete medical records. Storage of digital images, in particular, requires significant digital storage capacities. Unlike other systems that are severely limited in the amount of digital data that can be held in a portable solution, the SmartMetric Data Card is in fact a powerful digital computer with significant memory capacity sitting inside a Data Card the size of a standard Health Insurance Card. Most importantly, the SmartMetric solution provides the highest level of portable security for the patients information in that it can only be accessed after the patient touches the surface sensor on the Health Card triggering the Card to scan the persons fingerprint and matching it with their fingerprint pre-stored inside the card. Only after a finger print verification internally in the card is the data able to be accessed or viewed by a Doctor, Hospital or even an EMT’s computer.

About SmartMetric, Inc.

SmartMetric, Inc. has developed a portable biometric identity and transaction card capable of storing a wide variety of personal information while protecting you against identity theft and fraud. It is one of the most advanced portable identity authentication solutions in the world today. The card contains a biometric fingerprint scanner and reader which only you can unlock and is smaller and thinner than a credit card. The SmartMetric card is ideal for a wide range of consumers, including Personal, Government and Corporate.

BOCA RATON, FL–(Marketwire – August 19, 2010) –  David H. Fater, CEO of Vicor Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: VCRT), today announced that Drs. Daniel Weiss and Jerry Anchin, Vicor’s Chief Medical Officer and Director of Research and Development, respectively, participated in the start of a new cardiac screening initiative being conducted by Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), a London-based non-profit organization. Vicor Technologies is a biotechnology company focused on the development of innovative, non-invasive medical devices using its patented, proprietary PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm and software. Vicor is currently in the process of commercializing diagnostics that accurately risk stratify specific target populations for future pathological events including cardiac death resulting from arrhythmia or pump failure, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction, and trauma victims in need of lifesaving intervention.

Specifically, Drs. Weiss and Anchin trained technicians in the use of the Company’s PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm and supervised initial data collection efforts. Approximately 30 14 year olds were tested with the PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm. The multi-year CRY initiative will offer free cardiac screening to 14 year olds (DOB 1995); 14 is the earliest post-puberty age for which proactive screening is considered valuable. Participants will then be tested annually through age 19. In addition to identifying those youngsters who are at elevated risk of sudden cardiac death for referral for further evaluation, a goal of the study is to assess the changes that occur in those risk factors through the teenage years. Approximately 600 young people are struck down by sudden cardiac death annually in the U.K. Ten percent of the estimated seven million individuals fitting this description are expected to participate.

Dr. Sanjay Sharma, the consulting cardiologist spearheading the initiative, selected Vicor’s PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm for use in the CRY screening initiative. The ultimate goal of the screening initiative is to improve the accuracy of identifying teenagers at elevated risk of sudden cardiac death in the future.

“We’re delighted by the level of enthusiasm the CRY staff showed for the PD2i^®. Initially, the technicians were hesitant about including the PD2i^® test in their screening regimen because they were unfamiliar with it. Once they discovered how easy to use it is — by lunch time of the first day — they were very excited to be using the PD2i^®, a tool that, they said, adds tremendous value to their efforts by enabling a risk prognostic. The CRY screening initiative is an incredibly well-organized and professionally-run operation. No doubt it will be a great success in furthering understanding of cardiac death in the young,” stated Dr. Anchin.

The CRY screening initiative takes place two weekends per month at the Inherited Cardiovascular Disease and Sports Cardiology Centre at St. George’s Healthcare NHS Trust. Azra Loncarevic-Srmic, project manager, oversees three ECG technicians, an echocardiogram technician, a resident cardiologist, and two schedulers. According to Ms. Loncarevic-Srmic, they anticipate screening 300 participants per weekend.

“We’re honored to have our PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm selected for use in this important initiative. Given the consistently accurate results achieved, to date, with the PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm in risk stratifying adults at risk of sudden cardiac death, we’re confident that the PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm will prove beneficial in identifying youths in need of treatment to prevent a cardiac episode,” stated Mr. Fater.

Dr. Sharma is Professor of the recently-created Inherited Cardiovascular Disease and Sports Cardiology Centre at St. George’s Healthcare NHS Trust. The Inherited Cardiovascular Disease and Sports Cardiology Centre is the world’s first specialist, multi-disciplinary facility dedicated to providing services to populations — those between the ages of 14 and 35, including families and athletes — affected by or at risk for sudden cardiac death. St. George’s is one of England’s largest teaching hospitals and the first hospital in the United Kingdom to develop a specialist clinic for young sudden cardiac death after receiving CRY’s donation of echocardiogram equipment. CRY was founded in 1996 to raise awareness of conditions that can lead to sudden cardiac death and sudden cardiac death syndrome in those between the ages of 14 and 35. Additional information about CRY may be found at http://www.c-r-y.org.uk/.

About Vicor Technologies, Inc.
Vicor Technologies is focused on commercializing innovative non-invasive diagnostics employing its patented, proprietary point correlation dimension algorithm (PD2i^®). The PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm is a deterministic, nonlinear measure of electrophysiological potentials that predicts future pathological events with a high degree of accuracy in target populations.

The PD2i Analyzer™, which has FDA 510(k) marketing clearance, measures heart rate variability. Physicians performing diagnostic tests with the PD2i Analyzer™ are able to receive reimbursement under existing CPT codes. The PD2i VS™ (Vital Sign), in clinical trials under a collaborative effort with the U.S. Army Institute for Surgical Research (http://www.usaisr.amedd.army.mil/), risk stratifies combat and civilian trauma victims. The PD2i CA™ (Cardiac Analyzer), in various clinical trials, identifies patients at elevated risk of cardiac death resulting from arrhythmia or pump failure.

Vicor anticipates developing additional applications utilizing the PD2i^® nonlinear algorithm to enable early detection and risk stratification for a variety of other disorders and diseases. Additional information is available at www.vicortech.com.
