iMedica Grows Software Licenses Sold by 70 Percent in 2007, Adding Physician Practices Across USA

Demand Increases for Comprehensive Clinical Information Solutions
for Small-To-Midsize Physician Practices

iMedica's Patient Relationship Manager(TM) brings greater speed,
control, portability and accessibility to optimize physician
practices' clinical and financial performance
DALLAS--(Business Wire)--
iMedica Corporation, a leading developer of healthcare software
solutions for physician practices, grew its sale of software licenses
by 70 percent in calendar year 2007 over 2006. The growth of physician
practices for iMedica reflects increasing interest in EHR and PM
solutions by small-to-midsize physician practices seeking greater
speed, control, portability and accessibility to practice clinical and
business information. While the majority of iMedica's clients are
primary care or family medicine practices, other specialties in
iMedica's growing client base include pain management, rheumatology,
orthopedics, endocrinology, urology, nephrology, neurology, radiology,
urgent care, corporate health, hospitalists and mental health.

The growth of iMedica's client base also highlights the urgent,
national need for integrated EHR and PM solutions across medical
specialties around the country. Physician practice clients added in
2007 range from the Downey, California-based Center for Urological
Care, to the Williamstown, New Jersey-based Professional Pain
Management. Other 2007 physician practice client acquisitions include:

-- Adult Care of Austin (internal medicine), Austin, Texas

-- Endocrine Consultants of Nebraska (endocrinology), Lincoln,
Nebraska.

-- Mann ENT Clinic (ear, nose and throat), Cary, North Carolina

-- Polar Wind Medical Center (primary care), Fairbanks, Alaska

-- StatMD (urgent care), New Hyde Park, New York

-- CHD Meridian (corporate health), Nashville, Tennessee

-- 4C Hospital Group (hospitalists), Scottsdale, Arizona

"Physicians within every specialty are reaching beyond standard
implementation barriers such as cost, skepticism over ROI, and fears
of lost productivity to select and implement a robust, single-
application and database electronic health record (EHR) and practice
management (PM) solution," said Michael Nissenbaum, iMedica's
President and CEO. "iMedica's Patient Relationship Manager(TM) (PRM)
is easy to use, maximizes reimbursement and enhances quality.
Physicians have an opportunity to enhance their clinical and financial
performance, while experiencing greater speed, control and access to
clinical and business information and higher satisfaction with the
practice of medicine."

Colonnade Medical Group, a six-physician internal medicine group
in Lancaster, Ohio, selected iMedica's PM and EHR solutions based on
iMedica's track record of investing in new and emerging technologies,
as well as its commitment to support clients through an eight-member
implementation staff and a program of 10-to-15 minute video training
vignettes for physicians.

"We wanted a vendor with the resources to keep pace with the
changing healthcare environment and with a reputation for providing
excellent client support," said Troy Edwards, M.D, an internist at
Colonnade Medical Group. "iMedica's PRM is not only easy to use, but
also offers a billing component that allows our practice to submit
more accurate claims and get paid faster."

Also experiencing the benefits of iMedica's PRM is Familia Care,
Inc., a Las Colinas, California-based practice, whose 11 physicians
take a bi-lingual approach to serving the healthcare needs of the
Hispanic community.

"We chose iMedica PRM because of its ability to deliver patient
information in both English and Spanish and to boost revenues enough
to facilitate the opening of three to eight new clinic locations,"
says Roberto S. Skertchly, Familia Care's CFO and vice-president of
administration. "iMedica's PRM fits our workflow, bridges the needs of
multiple locations, and helps us customize and personalize patient
handouts."

Comments from Edwards and Skertchly complement a January 2008
survey from the Healthcare Information Management Systems Society
(HIMSS), where 75 percent of IT professionals said that improved
quality of care would be the biggest benefit of clinicians using IT.
Just 16 percent of respondents said that improved staff efficiency
would be the most significant benefit.

iMedica's PRM, a fully-integrated solution that uses Microsoft's
flexible .NET technology, is certified by the Certification Commission
for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHIT). A unique, proprietary
feature replicates data onto a tablet PC or laptop, enabling
clinicians to access or update patient charts from anywhere and at
anytime without being connected to the Internet, LAN or WAN. PRM also
offers total security by repopulating data lost in a power outage or
disaster within 30 to 40 minutes.
