NorthPoint Domain Inks Deal with Urology Society of America

Boston, MA—(November 29, 2001) NorthPoint Domain, Inc., a medical software developer, and the Urology Society of America, a new society for urologists with more than 1,500 members, today announced a partnership.

Under terms of the agreement, the Urology Society of America will help distribute Urology Domain, a suite of software products that provides disease-specific information, resources and utilities for urologists and their patients. NorthPoint Domain launched Urology Domain on August 1.

"This initiative represents our strong customer focus," Peter M. Nicholas, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of NorthPoint Domain, said. "Our customized Internet products provide urologists with a physician-directed resource that allows them to maximize efficiencies in their practices and focus on what they do best — providing patient care."

"The Society's joint effort with Urology Domain marks a dynamic and forward-thinking approach to assist urologists in the dissemination of critical information regarding diagnosis and continuing care to their patients," Wesley E. Harrington, executive director of the Urology Society of America, said. "USA is extremely pleased to enter into a dynamic partnership with NorthPoint Domain. Incorporating Urology Domain into urologic practices will greatly enhance not only each practice's reputation for professionalism, but also the level of care provided to patients."

"Patients are now taking a more active interest in medical issues and their own health care through the use of online research," Mr. Harrington said. "Therefore, it is imperative for physicians and their practice management professionals to provide the most up-to-date and comprehensive array of information to satisfy this demand. The Urology Society of America believes strongly that Urology Domain offers the best solution for clinical practices." The Urology Society of America, founded in March 2000, is based in Waltham, MA.

"The Urology Society of America is dedicated to 21st century ideas," Joseph N. Macaluso, MD, president of USA, said. "Our mission statement calls for the use of current and evolving electronic media for communication and education of our member constituents and their patients. NorthPoint Domain, with its revolutionary approach to the traditional role of physician as information giver, fits perfectly with our goals and vision." Dr. Macaluso, managing director of the Urologic Institute of New Orleans, is also chairman of the Urology Domain Medical Advisory Board.

Urology Domain is the third domain launched by NorthPoint Domain since its founding in August 1999. Cardiology Domain, created for cardiologists, was introduced in March 2001. Vascular Domain, created for vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists, was launched in June 2001. NorthPoint Domain shares a vision with leading physicians worldwide that online disease management utilities and patient services are increasingly crucial to the practice of medicine.
