ORLANDO, Fla. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - LDM Group, LLC (LDM), a leading provider of behavior based prescription
management programs, announced today at the Healthcare Information and

solutions. The new partnership combines the strength and value of both
companies to provide industry leading online, point-of-care and mobile

and technology vendors to develop significant health websites that
fulfill patient needs. Our turn-key solutions provide LDM clients with a
leading health portal faster and more cost-effectively than any other
solution available," said MediResource COO, Pierre Paquette.
MRI will contribute its significant content assets, including drug and
disease libraries, patient support group directories, 20 additional
health libraries, health tools, health risk assessments and digital
health coaching. The combined MRI and LDM delivery platforms can serve
