Fluent Medical and Nightingale Announce a Partnership to Provide Anesthesiologists With a Simple, Easy to Use Solution to Capture Charges and Improve Patient Care

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - Sep 25, 2012) - Nightingale Informatix Corporation (TSX VENTURE: [ NGH ]), one of Canada's leading Electronic Medical Records companies, partners with Fluent Medical to create iPatient™ Anesthesiology, a powerful anesthesiology-specific solution that captures charges more efficiently and helps eliminate lost or missing charges and increase revenue. In addition, anesthesiologists can easily document case details and procedure types, surgery information and anesthesia times.

iPatient Anesthesiology's intuitive, visual workflow is designed around the surgery schedule that reflects the simplicity of a paper-based process. This process is still commonly used by many anesthesiologists, meaning they can use iPatient with little or no training. Adding diagnoses, charges, times and modifiers is as effortless as clicking on a list of commonly used items that are grouped into standard categories. In addition, there is a fully searchable library of all diagnosis and charge codes as well as a crosswalk to automatically bring in corresponding ASA codes. iPatient also allows various role assignments such as anesthesiologist, CRNA and biller, all with multiple access levels. Anesthesiologists working in teams can not only see their colleagues' surgery schedules, they can also add times for those involved in the same procedures, improving overall care coordination. Finally, from an auditing perspective the solution satisfies CMS PQRI reporting requirements and improves coding compliance.

iPatient syncs instantaneously between desktop and mobile versions. Mobile devices currently supported include iPhone™, iPad™ and iPod® touch. Additional platforms such Android™ and Blackberry® will be supported shortly. Access from any device is protected by iPatient's HIPAA-compliant security at all times.

Fluent Medical, based in New York City, is an innovator in healthcare communication solutions. The company's iPatient™ suite -- a point of care charge capture tool, a sign out/hand off solution, and secure messaging -- has seen an increase in adoption across major healthcare facilities. Fluent Medical's suite of applications has been designed by physicians with an emphasis on ease of use, efficiency, and security.

Nightingale is one of the fastest growing health care service and software companies in North America and is recognized as an industry leader in Web-based clinician and community based electronic medical records (EMR) serving the needs of small primary care practices, multi-physician outpatient clinics, and large scale regional health organizations and networks. Coupled with integrated practice management and transcription, Nightingale's comprehensive service offering allows customers to enhance patient care, increase revenue opportunities and optimize operations. Nightingale is continuously innovating and enhancing its services to meet the needs of its growing and diverse customer base. Nightingale -- Healthcare connected. [ www.nightingalemd.ca ]
