Subtitle: CompuGroup Medical supports the global e-health forum as a platinum
partner

Koblenz (euro adhoc) - On October 25 and 26, 2010, players in healthcare will
meet in Hamburg for the global e-health forum. Under the heading of "Strategies,
Solutions and Services", decision-makers, users and providers will have the
opportunity to learn from each other and to establish relationships. As a
platinum partner, CompuGroup Medical supports the transnational exchange of
expert knowledge and will also present their own innovations.

Medical knowledge grows at an astonishing rate - it doubles approximately every
4 years. Physicians are inundated with a flood of complex information and
guidelines. This is barely manageable for any individual. However, it can be
doable, with IT-supported knowledge transfer. The magic word is software-
assisted medicine (SAM). In a presentation on 10/25/2010 at 12:15 pm,
CompuGroup Medical (CGM) will share information about the characteristics of
intelligent medical decision support systems provided through CGM SAM.

The CGM SAM solutions create a link between medical actions, medical knowledge
and the service provider: the CGM SAM server supports medical treatment teams
in pending decisions. This is the pivotal element of the system: It stores
clinical pathways, prepares patient data and provides individual suggestions
for guideline-appropriate therapy. The information is tailored to each
patient´s individual health data and is offered individually for each patient
in the doctor information system, precisely when the physician needs this
support.

Beyond that, CGM SAM solutions enable the electronic exchange and linkage of
medical information between various service providers. CompuGroup Medical is
thusly the first provider of complex medical knowledge in a preprocessed,
context-appropriate format. This makes CGM SAM the most modern form of
healthcare system organization - with a proven increase in efficiency of more
than 15%.

One out of every two physicians in Germany uses CompuGroup Medical software
solutions and globally there are 370,000 customers in 18 countries. This
extensive coverage provides the prerequisites to be able to deliver the
complicated procedures of software-assisted medicine (SAM) and to securely link
sensitive data beyond the confines of medical practices, hospitals and even
across borders, for the best quality in patient care and maximum health
benefits.
