MD Technologies Acquires Premier Medical Consultants, Inc.
Florida-based Company Enhances Medtopia RCM Business
BATON ROUGE, La. (Feb. 20, 2005)
-- MD Technologies Inc
. (OTCBB: "MDTO.OB")
, a leading healthcare technology and solutions provider, announces the acquisition of Premier Medical Consultants, Inc. of Largo, Fla. Premier Medical Consultants will retain its name, management, staff and operation, but becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of MD Technologies Inc. Premier Medical Consultants' founder, Jon Trezona, joins the MD Technologies management team as vice president of development.
Premier Medical Consultants, Inc. provides comprehensive billing and consulting services for physician practices and other healthcare entities. Premier currently services over 100 physicians in two states. The addition of the company's systems and Trezona's development expertise will help Medtopia users navigate the new complexities of healthcare finance. When compared to the cost of internal operations, many find that outsourcing selected services not only saves money, but also performs better because of their functional focus.
"This is the second company we've acquired in three months to grow our company and increase our service offerings", said Jose S. Canseco, vice president of mergers and acquisitions. "We're demonstrating to our shareholders that we're on an aggressive growth plan that will help place us as one of the top companies in our market".
In July 2005, MD Technologies sold $5 million of convertible debentures to finance acquisitions like Premier Medical Consultants, Inc. and Medical Group Services, Inc. of Tampa, which MDTO purchased in Nov. 2005.
"Today's financial managers share an intensifying list of challenges: tighter cash flow, decreasing reimbursements, aging technology, costly labor, tougher compliance demands, and the ever present bad debt", explained Trezona. "Joining the MD Technologies team will allow us to serve clients better and focus on developing better tools to enhance their outsourcing strategy".

Davis, chairman.
