eNotes Systems Announces Its Inaugural Telemedecine Program With LifeHouse Retirement Properties, Inc.

    LOS ANGELES, Sept. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- eNotes Systems, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: ENSY) announced today that it will be launching its
inaugural telemedicine beta test project with LifeHouse Retirement
Properties, Inc., the owner and operator of ten long-term healthcare
facilities.
    Upon implementation, the eNotes platform will provide LHRP with the
ability to simultaneously teleconference among the LHRP communities,
medical providers, and residents, as if the consultations were taking place
in person. The eNotes platform provides the ability to communicate in
complete privacy over a HIPAA compliant network that never touches the
internet. The eNotes private telephone network will also provide the
ability to instantaneously transfer medical files and radiological charts
pixel for pixel between the medical providers and the on-site nurses at
LHRP. In many instances, this will achieve the effectiveness of a
face-to-face consultation without the need for the physician to leave his
or her office while allowing the resident to remain in the comfort of the
assisted living community. The eNotes platform will allow LHRP to save its
residents' time and expense by reducing potential trips to medical
providers, while enhancing medical care.
    Physicians will also be able to store and forward consultations,
procedures, and medical information for reference. The 100% secure
transmission of medical information will eliminate "hacking" and
misdirected transmissions, providing guaranteed reliability of transmission
through redundant telephone switches throughout the United States. The
superior technology of the eNotes platform operates by way of an easy to
use plug and play system and provides simultaneous video/audio transmission
with no perceptible delay in transmission. This "real time," no latency
feature of the eNotes platform allows for a body of consultative and
diagnostic uses not previously available: radiologists may read and
interpret x-rays on-line; pathologists may examine specimens at a distance;
cardiologists may read electrocardiograms directly from a remote EKG
machine; dermatologists may view skin lesions magnified at the area of
interest, with the image transmitted to the dermatologist's location; and
obstetricians may dial up the fetal monitor connected to a patient in
delivery so as to monitor the rate of uterine contractions and the fetal
heart rate.
    In the case of community-based physicians, eNotes' telemedicine program
has the potential to keep more patients in the local community to obtain
services. This presents an enhanced business opportunity for physicians in
the local community, many of whom have experienced a drain of routine
medical services to medical centers during the last decade. According to
The Georgia College of Medicine, which has been a pioneer in telemedicine,
up to 75% of follow-up care can be performed in the local community. eNotes
will also be essential to enhancing clinical support for the regional
healthcare provider, and in assisting in the involvement and participation
of the specialist at the appropriate time.
