Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: ADAT), a provider of secure web-based software applications and telehealth products and services for healthcare organizations, announced financial results for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2012.

Selected highlights for the quarter include:

• Strengthened our management and sales teams with the addition of Mr. Sunil Hazaray as our new Chief Commercial Officer. Sunil will focus primarily on sales and partner relationships.
• Delivered our initial product order to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in connection with the training and test-in phase of our telehealth project and deployed the VA’s new Disease Management Protocols (DMP’s) recently released for its telehealth patients.
• Completed a $4.0 million secured loan financing with certain accredited investors, including several board members and the company’s executive management team.

Following the end of the quarter, we announced that the VA has exercised its first option to extend the term of our contract for Home Telehealth Devices and Services.  The base contract with the VA also includes three additional one-year options to extend the contract.  We also announced that CenterLight Health System, a leading non-profit provider of rehabilitation and long-term healthcare services, selected our Inscrybe® Referral Management solution to standardize, streamline and accelerate care order processing and completion.

Ben Benjamin, Chief Executive Officer of Authentidate, stated, “We continue to make solid progress with each of our core products and services as demonstrated by the new customer projects and partner relationships we have announced during fiscal 2012.  We have also consolidated our telehealth business and added some resources to support our growth, including the recent addition of Sunil Hazaray as our Chief Commercial Officer. Sunil has a rich background in our core markets from his experience as the CEO of Viterion TeleHealthcare, a Bayer Healthcare business, and management positions with other leading healthcare companies. Sunil has hit the ground running and will focus on sales and partner relationships which should help us to accelerate our revenue growth. With respect to our VA telehealth project, we are in the final stages of the test-in phase for both our device and voice based products and services and we believe we are the first provider to deploy the VA’s new DMP’s. Although these new DMP’s are quite extensive and required a significant amount of work to complete, we are pleased to support the VA in its efforts to better deliver care to our veterans. We believe we are close to the growth stage of our project and that the recent contract extension from the VA reflects positively on our progress.  During fiscal 2012, we have also added new customers and partner relationships from the private sector for our telehealth, hospital discharge and referral management products and we believe the recent consolidation of our telehealth business has enabled us to more effectively address emerging customer needs for combined solutions.  We continue to monitor a number of opportunities and will update our shareholders as they develop.”

Mr. Benjamin concluded, “We are very excited about the prospects that lie ahead for Authentidate and we believe the company is well positioned for future growth. Although our revenue growth has been slower than we would like, we have continued to manage our operations through challenging economic conditions and our growth has been offset in part by the acquisition of one of our hosted services customers. As reflected in our operating expenses, we have added sales and support resources during the year so we can pursue a number of near term opportunities. In March we added net proceeds of approximately $4.0 million from a secured loan transaction which will also help to support our growth initiatives as our markets develop.  We are seeing increased interest in our products and services as hospitals and other healthcare providers look for automated solutions to manage compliance, reduce costs and coordinate care for their patients. We believe our business will benefit from these trends and that our products and services provide the tools necessary to meet these emerging market needs.”

Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 were approximately $764,000 compared to $729,000 for the prior year period. These results reflect an increase in revenues from our telehealth products and services, partly offset by lower revenues from our hosted software services due primarily to the acquisition of one of our customers and the related contract expiration.  Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 increased approximately 16% compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012 due to higher telehealth revenues for the current period.

Net loss from continuing and discontinued operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $2,018,000, or $0.04 per share, compared to $1,621,000, or $0.04 per share, for the prior year period.  The increase in net loss for the quarter is due primarily to higher cost of revenues related to the increased telehealth revenues, higher selling, special shareholder meeting and stock option expenses and the non-cash amortization of acquired licenses and debt discount on the senior secured notes payable.  The net loss for the prior year quarter also includes income from discontinued operations.

Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 were approximately $2,176,000 compared to $2,157,000 for the prior year period. These results reflect the same trends as the third quarter.

Net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was approximately $5,597,000, or $0.12 per share, compared to $10,493,000, or $0.25 per share, for the prior year period. The net loss for the current period reflects the same trends as the quarter. The net loss for the prior year period reflects a loss from discontinued operations, including a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $5.4 million, offset in part by a gain on the sale of certain non-core assets.

As of March 31, 2012, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $3,760,000, the company had working capital for continuing operations of $4,254,000.

Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: ADAT), a provider of secure web-based software applications and telehealth products and services for healthcare organizations, today announced financial results for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2011.
Selected highlights for the period include:

- Increased our ability to respond to emerging market needs in the telehealth space by completing a transaction whereby ExpressMD Solutions, our former joint venture, became a wholly-owned subsidiary and we entered into a royalty-free license for the related intellectual property.

- Commenced the training and test-in phase of our telehealth project with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for the four regions designated by the VA for this project phase which follows the deployment of our supporting infrastructure at the VA location in Austin TX. 

- Expanded the sales channels for our products and services through our national reseller agreement with SHI International Corp. and our group purchasing program agreement with the Premier healthcare alliance.

Ben Benjamin, Chief Executive Officer of Authentidate, stated “We are continuing our efforts to shape our company into a premier healthcare information technology provider and believe we are well positioned for significant growth as opportunities for each of our core products and services continue to develop. With respect to our VA telehealth project, we have completed the training and test-in phase of the project in three of the four regions designated by the VA and are scheduled to complete the fourth location later this month.  We have also taken initial product orders for these locations and believe we are moving closer to the growth phase of our project. We continue to work with project directors and purchasing coordinators at the VA to move our project forward as quickly as possible and have placed orders to manufacture additional product to support the VA as well as other growth opportunities in this market, including our recently announced project with Meadville Medical Center.  We also believe the transaction to make ExpressMD Solutions a wholly-owned subsidiary is well timed as government healthcare reforms begin to take effect.  We believe this move will allow us to increase our focus on growing our telehealth business and enable us to more effectively combine our telehealth solutions with our hospital discharge and order and referral management solutions to support emerging healthcare market trends focused on the post acute continuum of care for patients.”

Mr. Benjamin continued, “Although we are continuing to experience increased customer interest and market awareness for our products and services and have added new customer projects during the period, we are not satisfied with the pace of our revenue growth.  While we continue to manage our operating expenses during these challenging economic times, we have added some additional sales and support staff during the period to help take advantage of near term opportunities. We also believe we will gain additional market traction through our new reseller arrangement with SHI and group purchasing program with Premier.

We remain focused on driving growth for each of our core products and services and believe we will benefit as government reforms begin to take effect during 2012 and healthcare providers continue to look for ways to significantly reduce costs, shorten the length of hospital stays, reduce hospital readmissions, shift patient care towards wellness and preventative care programs and automate healthcare records and processes. As always, we will update our shareholders as opportunities in our marketplace develop.”

Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 were approximately $661,000 compared to $723,000 for the prior year period.  These results reflect lower revenues from our hosted software services due primarily to the acquisition of one of our customers and the related contract expiration and lower revenues from our telehealth products and services due to the timing of product shipments. Revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 were lower than the first quarter of fiscal 2012 due primarily to the timing of telehealth product shipments which offset an increase in revenues from our hosted software services for the quarter.

Net loss from continuing and discontinued operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $1,664,000, or $0.03 per share, compared to $7,275,000, or $0.16 per share, for the prior year period.  The decrease in net loss for the quarter is due primarily to a payroll tax credit and lower depreciation and amortization expenses which offset lower revenues and higher selling, special shareholder meeting and stock option expenses for the period. The net loss for the prior year period also includes a loss on the sale of our German subsidiary, including a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $5.4 million.

Revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2011 were approximately $1,412,000 compared to $1,428,000 for the prior year period. These results reflect an increase in revenues from our telehealth products and services which was offset by lower revenues for our hosted software services due primarily to the contract expiration discussed above.
Net loss from continuing and discontinued operations for the six months ended December 31, 2011 was $3,579,000, or $0.08 per share, compared to $8,872,000, or $0.22 per share, for the prior year.  The net loss for the current period reflects the same trends as the quarter.  The net loss for the prior year period reflects the loss from discontinued operations discussed above offset in part by a gain on the sale of certain non-core assets.

At December 31, 2011, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities amounted to approximately $2,075,000 and working capital for continuing operations was approximately $4,247,000.

Chronic illnesses such as sleep apnea and diabetes can land patients in and out of the hospital. But these patients can avoid repeated hospital stays if their health problems are addressed before they become severe. That’s why the Meadville Medical Center is rolling out a new program to catch problems while they can still be addressed with simple measures, like medication.

“Can we provide continuous care to them at their home and improve their quality of life?” asks Barry Bittman, chief innovations officer at the hospital in northwest PA.

Patients with chronic conditions need to be monitored regularly. To make that process easier, Meadville will start giving some of its patients a touch-screen device called Electronic House Call, which connects to tools such as a blood-pressure cuff. Each day they will have to answer certain questions tailored to their conditions. It might ask a patient if she woke up with swollen ankles or had trouble breathing, then ask her to weigh herself on a scale that’s connected to the device. The results are sent over the Internet to a medical team at the hospital.

“If a person has congestive heart failure and we’re worried about the patient gaining three pounds in a day because of fluid retention, and they weigh three pounds more today than they did yesterday, we get an email,” Bittman explains.

He says patients will get the device if their medical histories and severity of their illnesses show they’d benefit from it. Patients will receive other help, including health coaches and transportation to regular doctors’ visits.

The United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS), which plans to roll out a telemonitoring service for 3 million patients, could learn a lot from the U.S. Veterans Health Administration (VHA) home telehealth program, according to a new report from U.K. research firm 2020health.org. From an American perspective, the report raises the question of why telehealth hasn’t gained more traction in this country, considering the VHA’s success with it.

The VHA program, which served 50,000 veterans in 2011, is the largest telehealth project in the world, the report said. Patients enrolled in the program–most of whom have chronic conditions such as heart failure, COPD, hypertension, diabetes, and post-traumatic stress disorder–receive free telemonitoring equipment and attention from care coordinators who teach them how to manage their own care.

The VHA began exploring telehealth in the late 1990s, and it rolled out its current program, called Care Coordination/Home Telehealth (CCHT), between 2003 and 2007. According to a 2008 study cited in the U.K. report, the program reduced hospital bed days by 25% and hospital admissions by 19% for a cohort of 17,000 participating patients. A full 87% percent of the patients said they liked the program.

Extrapolating from these results to the patients who are expected to enroll in the NHS telehealth program, the researchers predicted that the initiative could reduce the NHS’ utilization of healthcare resources by 20% to 56%, depending on patients’ health conditions. Results of a recent U.K. telehealth pilot showed reductions of 15% in emergency department visits and 14% in admissions and bed days. Mortality rates dropped a whopping 45%.

[ With strong outcomes data like this, a major barrier to telemedicine adoption will drop: Telehealth Reimbursement Will Grow, Health Leaders Say. ]

One key to VHA’s success with the CCHT, the report said, has been the integration of telehealth data with its electronic health record (EHR) system, and the availability of EHR data to all providers in the VHA system. “This allows all validated telehealth data to be accessed through the patient record,” the report said. “Whilst this is a large amount of data, physicians find the information immediate and useful for determining patient treatment.”

The nurse case managers, the report added, provide summary notes at least monthly, and these are also available in the EHR.

Without the care coordinators’ summaries and alerts, physicians would never be able to deal with the home monitoring data, observed Kenneth Kizer, MD, a former undersecretary for health in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), in an interview with InformationWeek Healthcare. “If we’re going to get individual practitioners to adopt telehealth, we’ll have to make the burden of data management as easy as possible,” said Kizer, who launched the VHA’s telehealth program in the late ’90s and is now director of the Institute for Population Health Improvement at the UC Davis Health System in Sacramento, Calif.

But the challenge of data management is not the main reason why the U.S. healthcare system has not widely adopted telehealth, despite its proven ability to cut costs and improve the quality of care. Speaking of telehealth, as well as technologies such as EHRs and mobile health apps, Kizer said, “The barrier is that the payment [method] doesn’t support these alternative ways of providing care.”

Salaried VHA physicians, the U.K. report noted, have largely accepted telehealth because it benefits patients and doesn’t cost them anything. In contrast, Kizer pointed out, private U.S. practitioners don’t have the resources to provide their patients with home telemonitoring–and would lose money if they did so.

“If you’re making money off of a visit, or a face-to-face encounter, telehealth loses its attractiveness,” he stated. “A major barrier to telehealth having the widespread uptake in the U.S. that it could and should have is simply our payment models.”

Even in the VHA system, Kizer said, the telehealth program is not an unalloyed success. “The VA is a very big system, and there’s better penetration of telehealth in some places than others. But it’s still not universally a routine part of care. It’s still in many places an add-on, and that’s one of the biggest barriers to telehealth everywhere.”

The U.K. report recommended 10 steps to maximize the impact of the NHS’ telehealth program. These include leadership commitment, long-term investment, changes in infrastructure, incremental adoption, the use of risk stratification in patient selection, the use of dedicated care coordinators, clinician engagement, a strong emphasis on training, and integration of monitoring data with EHRs.

Trackback: VA Telehealth Lauded As Model Healthcare Program

Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: ADAT), a provider of secure web-based software applications and telehealth products and services for healthcare organizations, today announced that Meadville Medical Center has selected Authentidate’s Electronic House Call™ (EHC) remote vital signs monitoring solution to monitor patients with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) and other chronic diseases.  Meadville Medical Center is using the EHC solution as part of a chronic disease management program that is the result of a collaboration with Highmark Blue Cross and Blue Shield.

“Meadville Medical Center is using the remote vital signs monitoring program to improve chronic condition outcomes and ongoing care for our patients after discharge from the hospital. As part of our Community Care Network model, the Electronic House Call solution will allow our clinicians to remotely monitor our patients’ conditions and continue to coordinate their care after they leave the hospital. Electronic House Call is designed for this type of program and includes the intuitive technology and rich feature-set that we were seeking to support our continuous care objectives, our patients and our own clinicians,” commented Dr. Barry Bittman, Chief Innovation Officer of Meadville Medical Center.

The EHC remote patient monitoring solution allows patients to return home, while providing for frequent updates of patient data to healthcare providers without a face-to-face visit. Medical teams use EHC remote patient monitoring to oversee the progress of their patients, reducing costs and allowing for improved patient care. EHC is used for patients who require ongoing management of their chronic diseases such as Chronic Heart Failure (CHF), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Diabetes, Hypertension and Sleep Apnea. The easy-to-use EHC touch screen device delivers better continuity of care to specific patient segments that require regular monitoring of medical conditions. Automated reminders increase patients’ compliance with care plans, diets, medication schedules and follow-up physician visits. While improving medical condition monitoring, EHC can also provide patients with disease management education. Healthcare providers can view each patient’s vital statistics and make adjustments to care plans on the secure web application, which is then communicated to the patient via the EHC device.

“We are delighted to support Meadville Medical Center with our EHC solution,” said Marcus Wagstaff, Sales Director at Authentidate. “EHC enables a higher level of patient care, which supports both the hospital’s and the healthcare insurer’s goals for improved outcomes and reduced readmissions.”

CHARLOTTE, NC – The Premier healthcare alliance, a national performance improvement organization, has awarded a group purchasing agreement to Authentidate for the provision of remote patient monitoring telehealth solutions in the Premier Physiological Monitoring, Vital Signs category.

Premier has than 2,500 U.S. hospital members and members also include more than 80,000 other healthcare sites.

As a contracted supplier, Authentidate’s Electronic House Call, Kiosk and Interactive Voice Response solutions will be available for purchase by the hospitals, clinics and other healthcare organizations that are members of Premier.

Authentidate’s remote patient monitoring telehealth solutions enable patients to return to their normal routines, while providing frequent updates of patient vital signs and related data to healthcare providers.

Providers can use remote patient monitoring, which reduces costs and allows for improved patient care, to oversee patients who have chronic diseases such as congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes, hypertension and sleep apnea.

The Electronic House Call, or EHC, and the multi-user Kiosk touch screen devices are designed to improve patient care and reduce costs by delivering patient vital signs and patient responses to session questions about their condition to healthcare providers through the secure web-based application. The EHC and Kiosk devices both connect to a variety of industry-standard peripherals that measure patient vital signs. The Interactive Voice Response (IVR) service uses voice recognition technology to allow patients to answer their session questions and enter their vital signs data verbally or using the keypad from any touch tone phone.

A patient’s vital signs and answers to session questions are immediately viewable on the secure web-based application by authorized care providers. Automated reminders are available for monitoring sessions, medication schedules, diets, disease specific education modules as well as follow-up physician visit reminders. These features help to increase care plan compliance, prepare patients to self-manage their disease in accordance with the care plan devised by their healthcare provider and contribute to improved overall outcomes, say Authentidate executives.

November 10, 2011

Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: ADAT), a provider of secure web-based software applications and telehealth products and services for healthcare organizations, today announced financial results for the fiscal 2012 first quarter ended September 30, 2011.

Selected highlights for the quarter include:

- Deployed our infrastructure at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) location in Austin TX to support our VA telehealth project.

- Improved top line results for the quarter over the same period last year and added new projects for our Inscrybe® Healthcare solutions and our ExpressMD^TM Electronic House Call^TM telehealth solution, including KC’s Home Health Care, Inc. which was previously announced.

- After the end of the quarter we received our security clearance for the VA project and strengthened our balance sheet with net proceeds of approximately $3.64 million from a registered direct offering of our common stock and warrants completed in October 2011.

Ben Benjamin, Chief Executive Officer of Authentidate, stated, “During fiscal 2012 we have continued to make solid progress with each of our core service offerings and have added some additional sales and support staff, as evidenced by the increase in our expenses for the period, to better position the company to take advantage of our near term opportunities. With respect to our VA telehealth project, we have deployed our infrastructure at the primary project site in Austin TX and have received our security clearance to operate. While this process has taken longer than we expected and delayed our ability to generate revenues, we have made significant progress and believe we are close to moving to the next phase of our project. We continue to work with project directors at the VA to implement our solutions as quickly as possible and we have been meeting with regional purchasing coordinators to demonstrate our telehealth products and services. As the VA enters into its new budget cycle for fiscal 2012 that started in October, we believe we are well positioned for significant growth as we start taking orders for this project and we are gearing up to manufacture additional product to support the VA as well as other growth in this market. Regarding our other solutions, we have begun to work with some new customers for our hospital discharge solution which we believe will give us additional momentum in this market and we are continuing to experience increased customer interest in this solution as well as our referral and order management solution as hospitals and other healthcare providers look for ways to manage costs, comply with new rules and regulations and coordinate care for their patients. As always, we will update our shareholders as opportunities in our marketplace develop.”

Mr. Benjamin concluded, “Although revenues increased for the quarter compared to the prior year period, we are not satisfied with the pace of our revenue growth. Based on customer interest, we believe market awareness of our solutions is increasing and that we are well positioned for increased revenue growth from each of our product and service offerings as we move through fiscal 2012 and beyond. We strengthened our balance sheet with the net proceeds from our registered direct offering in October which will help to support our growth initiatives as our markets develop. While economic conditions remain very challenging, we believe we will benefit from government healthcare reforms that begin to take effect in January 2012 as well as industry trends that are all geared towards significantly reducing costs, shortening the length of hospital stays, reducing hospital readmissions, shifting patient care towards wellness and preventative care programs and automating healthcare records and processes. We believe the fundamental value proposition of healthcare information technology remains strong and that our products and services will help contribute to a more efficient healthcare system.”

Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were approximately $751,000 compared to $705,000 for the same period last year. These results reflect an increase in revenues from our telehealth products and services partly offset by lower revenues from our hosted software services due primarily to the acquisition of one of our customers and the related contract expiration. Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 decreased approximately 3.6% compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 due primarily to lower hosted services revenues for the current period which were offset in part by higher telehealth revenues.

Net loss from continuing and discontinued operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was $1,915,000, or $0.04 per share, compared to $1,597,000, or $0.04 per share, for the prior year period. The net loss for the quarter reflects higher selling expenses, special shareholder meeting costs and stock compensation expenses which offset higher revenues for the period. The net loss for the prior year period also reflects a gain on the sale of certain non-core assets of approximately $351,000 offset in part by a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $186,000.

At September 30, 2011, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities amounted to approximately $938,000 and working capital for continuing operations was approximately $3,155,000. In October 2011, the company received net proceeds of approximately $3,638,000 from a registered direct offering of its common stock and warrants which will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including to support opportunities for future growth.

Management will host a conference call on Tuesday, November 15, 2011, at 4:30 p.m. ET, to discuss the fiscal first quarter financial results. The dial-in number for callers in the U.S. is (877) 869-3847 and the dial in number for international callers is (201) 689-8261.

Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: ADAT), a provider of secure web-based software applications and telehealth products and services for healthcare organizations, today announced financial results for the fiscal 2011 fourth quarter and year ended June 30, 2011.

Selected highlights for fiscal year 2011 include:

- Selected by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) as one of six approved suppliers for its Telehealth Program, already one of the largest in the world. As an approved VA supplier, VA facilities throughout the country will be able to utilize our Electronic House CallTM (EHC) and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) products and services to remotely monitor patients and enhance patient care.

- Added several new projects for our Inscrybe® Healthcare referral and order management solution and our ExpressMD Electronic House Call telehealth solution, including University of Utah, Medical Plus Supplies, Ameri-Quipt of NC, Superior Oxygen & Medical Equipment, Kennedy Health System, Ritecare Medical Products, Visiting Nursing Association of Western New York, Chicago VNA, Inc., Lehigh Valley Respiratory Care, Primary Wound Care and a telehealth distribution agreement with Rotech Healthcare Inc. that have been announced.

- Increased revenues for the quarter and fiscal year periods compared to the same periods last year and reduced the loss from continuing operations for the current year periods.

- Appointed O’Connell (Ben) Benjamin as Chief Executive Officer.

- Settled the shareholder class action suit.

- Completed the sale of certain non-core assets for net proceeds of approximately $2.35 million, a private placement of the company’s securities for net proceeds of approximately $4.46 million and the sale of our German subsidiary for net proceeds of approximately $1.30 million.

Ben Benjamin, Chief Executive Officer of Authentidate, stated, “Fiscal 2011 was a year of significant accomplishments for Authentidate, including our selection as a provider of telehealth solutions for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the addition of a number of new customers for our healthcare solutions and the sale of our German subsidiary which will enable us to focus all of our resources on opportunities for growth in the healthcare marketplace. We believe that the contract award from the VA has positioned us well for growth in the telehealth space and has provided additional market awareness for our telehealth products and services as well as our hospital discharge and referral and order management solutions. Although we are disappointed by the pace of our revenue growth during fiscal 2011, we believe we have continued to make progress with each of our core service offerings as demonstrated by these new contract awards and the increasing market awareness of what we offer to the healthcare marketplace. We are in the process of building out the infrastructure to support the VA and continue to experience increased customer interest in our solutions as healthcare providers search for ways to manage administrative and patient care costs. In addition, we are seeing an increase in customer inquiries about combining our solutions to help meet the emerging need for hospitals and other healthcare providers to coordinate care for their patients. All of our solutions are well suited for these tasks and offer the necessary tools to help reduce healthcare costs and enhance patient care. We are monitoring a number of opportunities in our marketplace and will update shareholders as they develop.”

Mr. Benjamin concluded, “Although we continue to operate in a very challenging economic environment, we improved our operating results from continuing operations for the quarter and the fiscal year periods as revenues increased and we continued to manage our operating costs as the markets for our products and services continue to develop. In October we strengthened our balance sheet with net proceeds of approximately $3.64 million from a registered direct offering of our common stock and warrants. We expect to use these funds to support operations, including the rollout of our telehealth and hospital discharge products and services. We continue to believe that our core telehealth, hospital discharge and referral and order management solutions offer significant opportunities for future revenue growth and that we are well positioned to benefit from government healthcare reforms and market trends to reduce healthcare costs, shorten hospital stays, reduce hospital readmissions and increase preventative care and care coordination for patients.”

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from continuing operations were approximately $708,000 compared to $659,000 for the same period last year. These results reflect an increase in transaction volumes and growth from new customer projects. Revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 were flat compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2011.

The loss from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was approximately $1,940,000, or $0.05 per share, compared to $1,983,000, or $0.05 per share, for the prior year period. The decrease in the loss from continuing operations for the quarter is due primarily to higher revenues and lower expenses from our cost management activities. Net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 was approximately $2,062,000, or $0.05 per share, compared to $1,805,000, or $0.05 per share, for the prior year period. The net loss for the quarter includes a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $122,000 compared to income from discontinued operations of approximately $178,000 for the prior year quarter.

Revenues for the year ended June 30, 2011 from continuing operations were approximately $2,795,000 compared to $2,419,000 for the same period last year. These results reflect the same trends as the fourth quarter.

The loss from continuing operations for the year ended June 30, 2011 was approximately $6,786,000, or $0.16 per share, compared to $9,047,000, or $0.25 per share, for the prior year. The decrease in the loss from continuing operations for the year is due primarily to higher revenues, lower expenses from our cost management activities and a gain of approximately $351,000 on the sale of certain non-core assets. Net loss for the year ended June 30, 2011 was approximately $12,555,000, or $0.29 per share, compared to $9,005,000, or $0.25 per share, for the prior year. The net loss for the current year includes a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $5,769,000, or $0.13 per share, including a non-cash loss on disposal of $5,405,000, compared to income from discontinued operations of approximately $42,000 for the prior year.

As of June 30, 2011, the company’s cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled approximately $2,424,000, working capital for continuing operations was approximately $4,939,000 and deferred revenue was approximately $232,000.

KC’s Home Health Care, Inc. (KC’s) a leading home health agency in the  Kansas City, Missouri area, implemented ExpressMD’s Electronic House Call™ (EHC) remote vital signs monitoring solution to improve condition outcomes for chronically ill patients in assisted care facilities. This solution allows patients to submit daily input through an EHC device designed for multi-patient monitoring without leaving their assisted care facility. ExpressMD’s telehealth solution is well suited for patients who have chronic diseases such as Chronic Heart Failure (CHF), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Diabetes, Hypertension and Sleep Apnea, which are the types of chronic illnesses that KC’s Home Health Care manages.

“KC’s decided to implement ExpressMD’s remote monitoring solution to extend the care continuum for the patients served by us and our referring physicians. The ease of use for patients in their homes or assisted living environments made this a straightforward choice for our clinical team, and has enabled KC’s to improve patient care compared to other home care providers. ExpressMD’s top notch training and support services were also a major factor in our considerations,” commented Charles Johnson, President of KC’s Home Health Care, Inc.

The innovative ExpressMD remote patient monitoring solution improves patient care and reduces costs by delivering results to healthcare providers securely via the Web without requiring an in-person physician or hospital visit. The easy-to-use touch screen device delivers better continuity of care to specific patient segments that require regular monitoring of medical conditions. Automated reminders are designed to increase patients’ compliance with care plans, diets, medication schedules and follow-up physician visits. The ExpressMD solution can also be used to deliver disease-specific patient education as needed. Healthcare providers can view each patient’s vital statistics and make adjustments to care plans online, which are then communicated to the patient via the remote monitoring device.

“We welcome KC’s Home Health Care to our growing Telehealth community,” said Marcus Wagstaff, Sales Director at Authentidate. “Recently, we are seeing more home care companies like KC’s adopting our Telehealth technology to improve chronic illness management.”

Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: ADAT), a provider of secure health information exchange, workflow management services and telehealth solutions, today announced that it has been selected by the University of Utah to supply the Utah Telehealth Network (UTN) Utah Remote Monitoring Project, “Improving Healthcare One Patient at a Time” with its Electronic House Call^TM (EHC) remote monitoring device, remote monitoring kiosk device and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) telehealth solutions made available through its ExpressMD^TM Solutions joint venture company.

“UTN is a mature telehealth network connecting hospitals, clinics and health departments. UTN provides support for a growing variety of telemedicine programs, with the aim of positively impacting patient outcomes and contributing to ongoing healthcare redesign and payment reform efforts in Utah. This project will implement new methods for chronic disease management for patients in rural and urban Utah,” said Dr. Marta Petersen, Director of Utah Telehealth Network and Vice-Chair, Department of Dermatology, University of Utah School of Medicine.

Scope of the Utah Remote Monitoring pilot project includes a centralized care coordinator, four clinics requiring concurrent monitoring of 15-20 patients each, and two additional locations to pilot the kiosk-based systems for 30 concurrent patients each. Project directors anticipate acquiring a care manager workstation, 60-80 patient home units, 2 Kiosks and 15-20 IVR patients, all dependent on finalization during implementation. Funding for this project is provided by a three-year Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Office for the Advancement of Telehealth (OAT) Telehealth Network Grant. Other project partners that will be able to utilize Authentidate’s telehealth solutions include University of Utah Health Care Stansbury Health Center and Stroke Center; the Association for Utah Community Health; Community Health Centers Inc; and the Utah Navajo Health System.

Dr. Sarah Woolsey, Community Health Centers commented, “The Utah Remote Monitoring Project was selected by the HRSA and OAT to show how Telehealth programs and networks can partner to improve access to quality health care services for underserved rural and urban communities. We want to demonstrate that patients will have better access to care, engage patients with Diabetes Mellitus and hypertension in their own management with support from the remote care system, and actually improve their health outcomes.”

“We are seeking innovative ways to deliver improved care to patients who are not able to reach traditional care facilities easily on a regular basis. The Utah Remote Monitoring Project will allow patients to have access to quality health care nearer their homes,” commented Donna Singer, CEO of the Utah Navajo Health System.

Authentidate’s remote patient monitoring solutions bring the kind of personalized care to patients in their homes that was previously only available in acute and post-acute care settings. EHC is an easy-to-use in-home, touch screen remote monitoring device that provides scheduled care plan reminders and allows patients to enter their own vital signs. The remote monitoring kiosk performs the same functions as EHC for multiple patients from a single common location like a clinic or school. Clinicians use the EHC, the IVR, or the kiosk solution to remotely monitor their patients’ vital signs and gather additional pertinent information about their patients’ health to supplement in-person visits. Clinicians can review their patients’ remote monitoring session results securely using the secure web-based application and remotely manage or adjust their patients’ care plans, medication reminders and related information. Clinicians can also use the EHC to provide disease-specific education to their patients in real-time.

Healthcare providers are beginning to use remote patient monitoring to deliver better continuity of care, especially for patients with chronic illnesses. Telehealth solutions also benefit patients who are in need of regular monitoring but are located far from their physician or specialist. In addition, these patients generally show higher compliance with care plans, resulting in a reduction in hospital readmissions and overall improved outcomes.

Zachary Madrigal, Director of Southwestern Region at Authentidate, said, “We are proud that The University of Utah Health Sciences  clinical team and the Utah Telehealth Network have selected our advanced  telehealth solutions to support the Utah Remote Monitoring Project. Authentidate is dedicated to supporting the success of this important telemonitoring initiative.”

Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: ADAT), a provider of secure health information exchange, workflow management services and telehealth solutions, today announced the results of a recent customer review it conducted with Pulmonary Associates of Lancaster, PA, which implemented Authentidate’s Inscrybe® Healthcare to eliminate paperwork and streamline referral and order management in their practice.

Background
Pulmonary Associates of Lancaster, Pennsylvania is a privately owned physicians’ practice specializing in Pulmonary Medicine, Critical Care Medicine and Sleep Medicine serving Lancaster, York and Reading counties in Pennsylvania. Their offices are located in the Lancaster General Health complex.

As their practice grew, the quantity of home care and home medical equipment paperwork increased incrementally with the additional patient workloads. The total quantity of paperwork related to patient care order requests arriving daily on Pulmonary’s facsimile machines and being dropped-off to their offices had reached unmanageable levels. “There were endless amounts of paper generated on a daily basis, something had to change” said Sue Ammerman, Practice Manager at Pulmonary Associates.

The Inscrybe® Healthcare Referral and Order Management Solution
Pulmonary Associates implemented Inscrybe Healthcare referral and order management solution to combine its fax, paper and electronic communications into one secure web-based dashboard. Inscrybe enables physician practices to initiate, exchange, update, electronically complete and sign medical referral orders from homecare and other healthcare organizations including Durable Medical Equipment (DME) / Home Medical Equipment (HME) suppliers, Home Health Agencies (HHA), and hospitals faster and more accurately than ever before while eliminating paper management in the process.

Inscrybe Results at Pulmonary Associates
Administrative and Clinical Staff Time Savings
Pulmonary Associates saves fifteen to twenty hours of overtime each week that were previously spent by their staff organizing and responding to paper forms. By using Inscrybe, Pulmonary Associates’ addressable overtime and overhead expense savings in this area are conservatively estimated at roughly an 85% reduction.

Paperwork Elimination and Improved Management
Inscrybe has virtually eliminated the growing mass of paper forms that the group previously had to deal with on a daily basis. Inscrybe organized everything in one portal so they can view what has or has not been processed in a single well-managed view. Since everything is now electronic, the completed forms can be downloaded from Inscrybe and stored in their EMR system without having to scan any paper.

A Higher Level of Efficiency
Using Inscrybe enables Pulmonary Associates to respond to and return care order requests in a matter of hours versus days. The home care providers receive the necessary completed paperwork from Pulmonary Associates faster, which enables a quicker response to patient’s needs.

“Our relationships with our supplier companies have improved tremendously because the frustration that used to exist between the supplier company staff and the Pulmonary Associates staff has been virtually eliminated. In addition, when I have new companies that contact us to ask if we would be willing to send them business, my first question is, do you use Inscrybe? If the answer is no, I tell them that is our preferred method of being able to deal with the paperwork and if you are not hooked-up with Inscrybe, we are not going to have much of an incentive to work with you. Most of the supplier companies that we do work with use Inscrybe, and that’s great for us,” concluded Ammerman.

For additional information on how Inscrybe can help your practice at www.inscrybe.com or call Inscrybe’s Physician Services Group at 877-467-2792.
