MedLink International Enters Into Distribution Agreement With Medicalis

MedLink International, Inc. (OTCBB: MLKNA), a
leading provider of Healthcare IT services to the medical community,
announced today that it has entered into a Distribution Agreement with
edicalis Corporation, the industry leader providing next generation,
clincial decision support (CDS-DI) solutions and integration technologies
focused on improving the quality and efficiency of diagnostic imaging in
health care. MedLink will now offer the complete range of Medicalis
solutions to provide its radiology customers with clinical decision support
for diagnostic imaging, as well as facilitated management of radiology
pre-authorization programs from referring physicians.
"With Medicalis CDS-DI integrated into the MedLink EHR Total Office and
edLink EHR Lite at the point of care, referring physicians can take care
of the requirements related to any patient's medical imaging procedure all
within the confides of the MedLink EHR -- including ordering and scheduling
of the exam, as well as any pre-authorizations processes. Radiology groups
can significantly reduce the financial burden and create efficiencies for
the referring physician and their staff that spend as much as half an hour
to secure one pre-authorization for a patient. Not only does the solution
increase efficiencies for radiology centers' workflow through integrated
scheduling and electronic ordering but creates a significant competitive
advantage over competing radiology groups by significantly reducing the
burden on the referring physician," stated Ray Vuono, Chief Executive
Officer of MedLink International, Inc. "This offering leverages our current
relationships in the imaging marketplace and gives MedLink an additional
revenue source from the more than 500 MedLink EHR Lite installations, in
addition to the lab integration and e-prescription channels."
"Medlink's decision to embed diagnostic imaging Clinical Decision Support
(CDS-DI) and advanced workflow tools directly into their Medlink Office &
Lite EHR solutions places them on the leading edge of EMR companies
delivering significant clinical and administrative benefits to physicians
in their offices," says Ron Kelly, CEO of Medicalis. Medicalis' advanced
imaging solutions are designed to plug into EMRs and CPOEs to seamlessly
deliver advanced quality and productivity services into in the context of a
physician ordering a test. The physician's experience is similar to
prescription-drug databases currently embedded into the ordering workflow
of EMRs. Physicians using Medlink's Office & Lite EHR will be able to
place diagnostic imaging orders in the same way that they always have, and
only when there are alternative tests to consider, they will be seamlessly
presented with these options with their EHR. This process delivers the
evidence-based practices from leading diagnostic imaging and imaging
sources and advanced ordering and scheduling services while the physician
is considering tests for their patient. The seamless experience eliminates
the interruption required to reference text books or online websites.
