ECSL Ecare Solutions Inc (PK)

EncounterCare Solutions, Inc., (Pink Sheets:ECSL) an integrated healthcare company focused on the health information technology, telemedicine, and homecare markets, announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Building Blocks Home Pediatric Services has launched its private label HIPAA compliant Electronic Medical Data Exchange (EMDE) portal through CyberMedx Medical Systems LLC (a subsidiary of ECSL). The EMDE is an automated and integrated data management system designed to improve homecare service efficiency through near real-time homecare medical data access. The EMDE portal provides patient information which is accessible by licensed providers to manage individual patients which are at home. Initially, Building Blocks will deploy the EMDE to manage home sleep therapy studies and wound care therapy for infants and children in the State of California. ECSL believes that the market opportunity in the State of California alone for Building Blocks exceeds $2.5 billion. In announcing the agreement, Ronald Mills, Sr., President and CEO of EncounterCare stated, �The business of managing patient care remotely has never been so obviously needed as with wound care. There is a very limited supply of Enterostomal Therapists and their expertise is critical to managing wounds successfully to obtain the optimum patient outcome. The Electronic Medical Data Exchange allows the therapist to manage individual patients remotely by evaluating the wound and advising field nursing staff on the individual patient�s care. We have been very pleased with the overall reception by both the private and public healthcare community organizations. We have also been working on several national agreements in wound therapy and skin care programs, and expect to have some meaningful announcements in the near future.� Jill Evans, Vice President and General Manager of Building Blocks Pediatric Home Health Services stated, �Wound care is one of the fastest growing parts of our business. There is a tremendous need for the EMDE service and our unique way of managing the patient remotely will help us extend the reach of our program and services, and substantially improve the delivery of healthcare from the care provider to the patients.� About EncounterCare Solutions: EncounterCare Solutions, Inc.
