NorthPoint Domain Launches Physician Extender Software Version 2.0

Boston, MA—(April 21, 2004) NorthPoint Domain is pleased to announce the release of Physician Extender Software version 2.0 (PES 2.0). PES 2.0 is the point-of-care patient education application within NorthPoint Domain's accelerator suites that provides physicians and staff the opportunity to prescribe up-to-date, patient-focused information on specific conditions, diagnostic tests, and treatment options. Post care and after care health education, which are germane to a patient's specific ailment, is included in the release of PES 2.0, affording medical specialty practices and their patients the ability to access a library of health and wellness articles focusing on issues such as healthy eating habits, stress management, smoking cessation, exercise benefits and coping with disease.

Physician Extender Software 2.0 is the first major upgrade to the product since its initial launch in 2001. "Our PES 2.0 product directly addresses patient literacy concerns as well as the growing need to educate and communicate with the patient at the point of care," said Peter M. Nicholas, Jr. Chairman and CEO of NorthPoint Domain. "New additions and upgrades to PES 2.0 include improved ease of use, new and intuitive login and user instructions, enhanced navigation, bi-weekly "Hot Topic" articles and further refined disease specific content organization along the entire continuum of care." The new "Hot Topics" section features brief, specialty-specific articles written for the patient on new treatments, therapies, guidelines, and lifestyle issues. A new Hot Topic article will be posted bi-weekly and all previous Hot Topic articles will be archived and accessible through PES 2.0. PES 2.0 gives users the ability to send patient education and Hot Topic articles electronically via email, affording patients the opportunity to share information with family, friends, and/or caregivers. In addition, there is an increased emphasis on the health and wellness center available to all patients. The "Take Control of Your Health" health and wellness offering enriches the patient-physician relationship and online experience while contributing to patients' overall health and wellbeing.
