“I am proud of our progress in growing our customer base, strengthening our
product line, and improving the efficiency of our implementation process, all
while controlling our expenses,” stated Glen Tullman, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer. “In our TouchWorks(TM) unit, we continue to see strong demand
for our products as demonstrated by the agreements we announced today. Our
clients are reporting strong physician utilization and return-on- investment;
both are key drivers in the purchase of additional modules and critical to our
long-term success. Additionally, our Physicians Interactive(TM) unit continues
to make solid penetration into the largest pharmaceutical companies in the
world, driven by our ability to quickly reach and communicate with physicians.”

Tullman continued, “Last week, at our first National TouchWorks Users
Conference, over 130 attendees representing 46 clients joined us to discuss the
progress they are making with our applications. We previewed Version 9.0 of our
TouchWorks modular electronic medical record as well as new versions of the
Hewlett-Packard iPAQ PDA and Microsoft Tablet PC operating system. The response
to our current offering, as well as our new advances, was overwhelmingly
positive.”

up 13% from the comparable period in 2001. Technology revenue for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002, increased by 38% from $15.3 million in 2001 to
