Compliance 360 Forms Alliance With Medical Consultants Network Inc.

Partnership Will Go a Long Way in Enabling the Paperless Hospital

ATLANTA -- June 9, 2004 -- Compliance 360, the leader in enterprise compliance management applications, today announced that it has entered into a partnership with Medical Consultants Network (MCN), one of the nation's leading publishing and consulting firms for healthcare compliance issues.

MCN primarily offers education services and content concerning compliance issues to organizations throughout the healthcare industry. By way of the partnership with Compliance 360, MCN now has a technology arm whereby its materials are now offered through the Compliance 360 software platform.

"In the past, healthcare organizations had policy and procedure manuals in order to show auditors how they were meeting compliance regulations," said Amanda Nollet, CEO, Medical Consultants Network. "When it became possible to digitize policies and procedures and put those either on the Internet or on a corporate intranet, we partnered with Compliance 360 and helped advise the company in designing the Policy Manager module of their solution. We did this because we were extremely impressed with the robustness of the company's core compliance management solution."

Users today need a compliance management solution that encompasses all the necessary domain expertise of their industry. While it is important that a compliance management solution enable users to easily access, modify, share and manage the documents that they need to do their jobs in meeting compliance issues and adhering to regulations, users also want to load their own policies and procedures and document collections into more than just a repository. The strategic relationship between Compliance 360 and MCN enables users to manage mission-critical, regulatory compliance documents in a solution designed to meet the specific needs of healthcare organizations.

"MCN has opened doors for us to take our product into organizations that were trying to build and support compliance solutions themselves -- facilities that were not geared to IT development, service and support," said Steve McGraw, CEO, Compliance 360. "We like to think that we enable healthcare entities to do what they do best and that is deliver patient care, while we do what we do best -- delivering compliance management solutions that meet the needs of how healthcare facilities actually operate."

Specifically, in terms of the Compliance 360-MCN partnership, users appreciate the fact that they now have one program where they can get MCN's materials, which focus exclusively on educating users on regulations and compliance issues within healthcare. Beyond the content provided by MCN are links provided by Compliance 360 to all the actual regulations that apply to the healthcare industry.
