MedPlexus Offers Introductory Pricing on Integrated Electronic Health Records and Practice Management Solution through June 2006, and Introduces M+ Methodology Pathway for Incremental EHR Adoption.

Solutions offer predictable, affordable complete or phased EHR adoption, resulting in a faster return on investment, improved practice efficiency, workflow and patient care.

BALTIMORE - May 22, 2006 - MedPlexus, an innovative developer of mobile and Internet-based administrative, financial and clinical software for physician practices, is showcasing its Integrated EHR and Practice Management Solution at the Towards the Electronic Patient Records (TEPR) 2006 Annual Conference and today announced a promotional offer on MedPlexus' Integrated EHR and Practice Management Solution, through June 2006. MedPlexus also introduced its M+ Methodology Pathway for incremental EHR adoption.

MedPlexus directly addresses two of the primary barriers to EHR adoption: affordability and deployment disruption to busy practices.

• The ASP-hosted Integrated EHR and Practice Management Solution is available through June 2006 for $500 per month, per physician, plus a 50% discount off of an already affordable training and implementation package. This feature-rich solution is ideal for physicians familiar with healthcare IT, or those looking for rapid adoption.


• The M+ Methodology Pathway offers e-prescription and the physician office message center for a reduced monthly fee of $100 per physician, with a nominal implementation and training fee. Designed for practices wanting to gradually integrate EHR, this starter-solution allows physicians to order additional EHR capabilities along the path towards a complete EHR implementation.

"This is an opportunity for small medical practices to invest in excellent information technology applications at a good price," says Vinson J. Hudson, president and Physician's Office Management/Medical Information System (POMIS) industry analyst for Jewson Enterprises.

Simple Deployment

Special pricing, along with MedPlexus' ability to configure, install, train and support without ever visiting the practice sites, provides one of the most cost-effective opportunities for physicians to reap the benefits MedPlexus offers. Deployed remotely over the Internet, physicians can avoid time-intensive, on-site installation disruptions. Online training allows physicians and staff to schedule for convenience, further minimizing practice disruption. Depending on physician pacing in implementation, MedPlexus solutions may be up and running within hours or days. "The ease of use of MedPlexus' EHR is a key benefit to our office. Training time for a new hire was low, with minimal disruption," said John Wilson, M.D., a family practitioner in Daly, CA.

Unparalleled Support and Low Maintenance

MedPlexus' easy-to-maintain solutions eliminate the need for full time IT staff, saving practices time and money. Outstanding customer support is available by phone or online, with extended hours. Both solutions automatically back-up and update, without prompting, freeing physicians to focus on patient care.

Increased Practice Efficiency

MedPlexus supports better care through better business. MedPlexus solutions meet HIPPA requirements and allow practices to work more efficiently with a faster return-on-investment. These solutions streamline practice processes, eliminate work redundancy and time-consuming paper management.

The Integrated EHR and Practice Management Solution features payer eligibility verification, authorization, increased coding accuracy and near-instant automatic billing at the end of a patient visit. Report features allow physician practices to analyze practice profitability and payer contracts, a business-critical tool necessary to maximize practice efficiency.

Additionally, physicians can securely access patient records anytime and anywhere, improving after-hours care and data entry. Connectivity with laboratories, pharmacies and payers streamlines processes, and eliminates the time and manpower traditionally required with paper processes. Without paper files, data entry, file management and storage are all refined to a swift, cost-effective process. "The streamlining of prescription processes is amazing," said Dr. Wilson. "Everything is at your fingertips and available wherever you are."

Physician Tested Solutions

MedPlexus solutions reflect market awareness, gained from an extensive pilot program development phase working closely with health care experts and physicians. "Invaluable feedback from the pilot program enabled MedPlexus to refine solutions that support the priorities and constantly evolving needs of physicians," says Vinson J. Hudson.
