** For Immediate Release**

Sacramento, California September 1, 2008 -- E*Healthline.com, Inc. has announced the introduction of E*Prescribe©, a comprehensive electronic solution providing

physicians with vital point-of-care and access for the transmission of prescriptions electronically to a patient's pharmacy of choice. This innovative technology immediately identifies any of the patients duplicate medications, allergies and drug interactions with their existing medications. While each legible prescription is electronically captured, the system decreases prescription errors caused by any illegible readings of a physician's handwriting, and automates the process of checking for drug interactions and allergies, leading to improved patient safety and increased efficiency. The System also checks for insurance status to ensure that the selected drug is covered by the patient's health plan. E*HealthLine's 'E*Prescribe©' offers Integrated technology, combining the company's 'Vital©' Personal Health Record System and 'Phoenix©', an Integrated Practice Management System and Electronic Medical Record System, or a stand-alone E*Prescribe© solution. This Internet based affordable solutions will also be offered as an Application Server Provider (ASP) or licensed model, with an outreach to the healthcare arena, both domestically and internationally

The United States Congress has passed Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers (Act of 2008 H.R. 6331). The Act, for the first time ever, provides financial incentives to physicians who adopt electronic prescribing. The Act will increase Medicare payments to physicians who regularly utilize electronic prescribing by two (2) percent in 2009 and 2010, then slightly less over the next three (3) years. Physicians who do not use the technology would see their payments cut by one (1) percent in 2011, and a maximum of up to two (2) percent for 2013 and beyond.
E*Prescribe© Enterprise ASP model is E*HealthLine's latest contribution to the patient's safety within the challenged healthcare Communities.
