FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

InTouch Delivers Web Based, Intuitive and Secure Patient Information for McKesson HIS Database

MEMPHIS, TN - Sept 18, 2003 (Send2Press Newswire) -- Perceptus
(www.perceptus.net), a company specializing in healthcare software has
released InTouch, a product that allows physicians and staff to easily
access patient information using only a web browser.  The software is
intuitive and simple to use allowing access to results, transcriptions,
(including support for Arrendale Associates TA and SoftMed), orders,
insurance, demographics, images, (MedRecsPlus, IBM WAF) census, and other
desired patient information. InTouch is fully compliant with HIPAA (Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) and securely
delivers patient information for McKesson's Series 2000 customers.

Many hospitals have not yet accepted internet based patient information
systems due in part to patient confidentiality concerns and provisions
contained in HIPAA that identifies large financial penalties for divulging
confidential information. InTouch delivers patient information to
physicians and staff in a highly secure environment. Hospitals don't want
just bits and pieces but proven integrated turnkey solutions that address
every part of information delivery from the web server all the way to the
physician's desktop.

A partial list of how InTouch is made HIPAA compliant:

* Two factor authentication for access
* System generates random one time password
* Logs what each user views and if it is viewed again after the data changes
* Physicians only see patients they have a relationship with
* Data is encrypted (128 Bit SSL) to the desktop
* Automatic cover page feature to protect viewed information
* Automatic logoff after specified time of no activity
* Change of token access PIN allowed by end user
* Ability to lock access to selected physical PC's for a user

The system does not require an external interface engine or other product
to clone or duplicate information to another system. This eliminates the
duplication of confidential patient information. Because data is retrieved
directly from the HIS (Hospital Information System) residing on the AS400
it provides immediate posting of the most accurate and timely information
for physicians.

Purchase price is $75,000 for a single CPU, There is a $25 30-day fully
functional trial available via the Perceptus web site. Reseller inquiries
are invited.
