Certify Data Systems Completes Series B Funding

Ziegler HealthVest Partners Leads the Round; Cites Progress, Growth and Momentum
as Affirmation for Continued Investment
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Certify Data Systems, Inc., a leading provider of healthcare information
exchange solutions for hospitals and physicians` offices, announced today that
it has closed a round of Series B funding led by Ziegler HealthVest Partners LP.
Ziegler, a venture capital fund that invests in healthcare services, healthcare
IT and wellness, made a Series A investment in Certify in August 2008.

Certify offers an innovative clinical information exchange solution for
hospitals and physicians` offices that allows disparate systems to securely and
seamlessly exchange clinical data, such as lab reports, discharge summaries and
other important patient data. Certify`s enterprise-class hospital Gateway and
physician HealthDock appliance work in concert as a completely integrated health
information network. The Certify solution securely processes all forms of data -
everything from HL7 and XML to PDFs, faxes and emails - and delivers this
information in real time to the hospital`s and physicians` information systems,
even if those systems are otherwise incompatible.

"Ziegler`s additional investment in Certify is a further affirmation of our
confidence in both its product and its management team," said Keith Henthorne,
managing director of Ziegler HealthVest Management LLC. "We are impressed by the
progress and momentum Certify has demonstrated in developing and marketing its
groundbreaking clinical information exchange solution."

In recent months, Certify has added four integrated delivery networks to the
growing list of healthcare systems that employ its solution and strengthened its
management team with the appointment of healthcare industry veteran Jeffrey
Rideout, M.D., as chief strategy officer.

"These are exciting times for Certify," said Marc Willard, Certify Data System`s
founder and CEO. "Our growth as a company is an indication of both the value of
the solution we offer our clients and the energy and expertise of our management
team. We appreciate this additional investment by Ziegler and we are confident
that the coming months will confirm Certify`s position as the industry leader in
clinical information exchange."
