About LanVision Systems

LanVision is a healthcare information technology company focused on digitally
streamlining healthcare by providing solutions that improve document-centric
information flows while complementing and enhancing existing
transaction-centric healthcare information systems.  The Company's workflow and
document management solutions bridge the gap between current, inefficient
paper-based processes and transaction-based healthcare information systems by
1) electronically capturing document-centric information from disparate
sources, 2) electronically directing that information through vital business
processes, and 3) providing access to the information for authenticated users
(such as physicians, nurses, administrative and financial personnel and payers)
across the continuum of care.

The company's workflow-based products and services offer unique solutions to
specific healthcare business process bottlenecks within the Medical Record life
cycle and the revenue cycle.  The Company offers process improvement solutions
such as remote coding, abstracting and chart completion, remote physician order
processing, pre-admission registration scanning, insurance verification,
financial screening, secondary billing services, explanation of benefits
processing and release of information processing.

LanVision's products and services also create an integrated document- centric
repository of historical health information that is complementary and can be
seamlessly "bolted on" to existing transaction-centric clinical, financial and
management information systems, allowing healthcare providers to aggressively
move toward fully Electronic Medical Record (EMR) processes while improving
service levels and convenience for all stakeholders.  These integrated systems
allow providers and administrators to dramatically improve the availability of
patient information while decreasing direct costs associated with document
retrieval, work-in-process, chart completion, document retention and archiving.

LanVision's systems can be provided on a subscription basis via remote hosting
services or installed locally.  LanVision provides ASPeN, ASP-based remote
hosting services to The University Hospital, a member of The Health Alliance of
Greater Cincinnati, M. D. Anderson Cancer Center and Children's Medical Center
of Columbus, Ohio among others.  In addition, LanVision has installed its
workflow and document management solutions at leading healthcare providers
including Stanford Hospital and Clinics, the Albert Einstein Healthcare
Network, Parkview Health System, ProMedica Health System, Inc., the University
of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Medical University Hospital Authority of South
Carolina, and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
