Healthcare Automation, Inc. Acquires Encounter Technology Solutions, Inc., Broadening Its Integrated Software Solution Warwick, RI (January 11, 2005) - Healthcare Automation, Inc. (HAI), an innovator in home healthcare software, announced today that it has acquired the assets of Encounter Technology Solutions, Inc. ("ETS") of Atlanta, GA. "Several of our important customers have successfully implemented Encounter's palm-based clinical point of care system," said Ken Pereira, CEO of HAI, "Our software has already been integrated for all disciplines of home healthcare operations. The business combination made perfect sense." Curtis Eade and Kay Wetherbee, the founders of ETS, join HAI as part of the transaction, complementing HAI's team of over sixty professionals serving home care orginizations throughout the USA . The point of care software, developed by ETS, operates using Palm OS devices and is integrated with HomecareNet, HAI's Windows-based operations and financial software for home care and hospice agencies as well as home infusion and DME companies. Clinicians use the ETS software and the palm device to record OASIS and assessment data, clinical notes, medications, and other key information during a visit at the patient's home. Admissions and clinical data flows between HAI's HomecareNet system and the ETS system seamlessly, allowing administrative staff to exchange critical information with clinicians in the field. A clinician's schedule is maintained and synchronized between the office and the clinician's palm device through a direct or wireless connection; completed visits become available for immediate billing. "Opportunities abound to serve our collective customer base," said Curtis Eade. "joining HAI provides ETS an opportunity to expand the use of its products to all disciplines of homecare within a larger company and install base. Our combined offerings create a powerful competitor in the market for advanced homecare software and services." Healthcare Automation, Inc. (www.healthcare-automation.com) provides software and outsourced reimbursement services to home health and hospice agencies, infusion providers and DME providers. Headquartered in Warwick, RI, with operations in Andover, MA, the company employs software specialists, engineers, clinicians and reimbursement experts to meet today’s homecare needs.
