Lifespan Focuses on Medical ScreenPhone Applications

Tom — Wed, 06 May 2009 13:49:20 +0000

Lifespan (Pink Sheets:LSPN) (www.lifespaninc.com) will commence the marketing of the Medical ScreenPhone, its internet access telephony product, to the 14 trillion dollar US healthcare industry as a medical verification, authorization and billing solution as well as a home care communications tool. Lifespan anticipates that the medical marketplace introduction will be rapidly followed by deployment into the hospitality, banking/finance, security and other telecom markets.

Lifespan CEO, Mr. Ken Berscht stated, “Increased efficiencies are sorely needed in healthcare. Currently, administrative costs in healthcare exceed $200 billion each year. The Medical ScreenPhone can be easily utilized to significantly improve the efficiency of a small part of the US medical electronic data transfer (EDT) and electronic medical record (EMR) market. But the best part of the use of the Medical ScreenPhone in this industry is that it will ultimately improve the practice and delivery of healthcare to the benefit of doctors and their patients.”

As a result of the sensitive and highly personal nature of electronic medical records (EMR), electronic data transfer (EDT) and all other health information, system-wide security and simplicity of use has been integrated into the Medical ScreenPhone. The touch screen Internet access, comprehensive encryption technology, smartcard authentication processes, and secure HIPAA certified server networks, safeguard the transmission and storage of patients’ confidential data and medical information.

Medical ScreenPhone based EDT provides numerous benefits to healthcare providers. It eliminates the need for office staff to prepare claims manually, endlessly wait for a telephone response or re-key repetitive transaction information. With ScreenPhone there are no complicated and expensive computers, no paper forms, no faxes, no envelopes and no stamps. Medical office staff can perform more efficiently, saving Doctors and Insurers time and money.

The ScreenPhone combines the Internet features of a PC, such as information access, web surfing and email, with the simplicity of a regular telephone. The 8.2-inch full color touch screen gives easy access to the Internet while the normal telephone handset and retractable keyboard provide an easy-to-use interface connection. The ScreenPhone will be fully configured for PSTN modem connectivity and high speed Internet connectivity through 10BaseT Ethernet and supports voice over IP (VOIP).

Medical ScreenPhone terminals are specially configured to perform medical eligibility confirmation, authorization, claims submission, electronic medical record access and transmission, home monitoring, prescription submission, and medical data transmission.

Stocks dip on cautious remarks by Fed Chief

Stocks dipped in morning trading following a big advance Monday that sent the Standard & Poor’s 500 index into positive territory for the year and the Dow Jones industrials up more than 200 points. Positive news on the housing market drove the gains.

Careful remarks from Bernanke gave investors little comfort. The Fed chief told Congress that the economy should start growing again later this year, but he warned that economic activity is likely to be held back by more job losses.

The mix of caution and optimism contained in Bernanke’s remarks highlighted the conflicting forces that have been tugging at the market in recent weeks.

An increasing amount of upbeat economic data has driven stocks to their best two-month performance in nearly 35 years. However a number of dark clouds still hang over Wall Street, including growing unemployment and mixed news from first-quarter corporate earnings reports.

This week, two major news events could easily upset the market’s mood. Results are due out Thursday for the government’s “stress tests” on banks, and on Friday the government will report monthly payroll data, one of the economic indicators most closely watched by investors.

Early Tuesday, the Dow was down 12.35, or 0.2 percent, to 8,414.39. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 4.31, or 0.5 percent, to 902.93, while the Nasdaq composite index fell 16.16, or 0.9 percent, to 1,747.40.

Investors drive stocks higher on heels of better economic and earnings news.

In a welcome surprise for Wall Street on Thursday, the Labor Department said initial claims fell last week by 14,000 to 631,000. Economists had predicted an increase.

Thursday’s readings bolstered investors’ growing belief that the U.S. economy, while not yet healthy, is nearing a bottom. The stock market surged more than 2 percent Wednesday after the Federal Reserve said the contraction appears to be slowing.

Investors know the stock market usually rebounds before the economy does, and they do not want to miss out on a rally. The Dow Jones industrial average is already up 25 percent from its 12-year low in early March.

Earnings reports have also been beating expectations over the past few weeks. On Thursday, many companies reported profit declines — including Dow Chemical, Newell Rubbermaid and Newmont Mining — but their results topped analysts’ forecasts. And Motorola Inc.’s first-quarter loss was smaller than analysts predicted.

In early trading, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 82.91, or 1 percent, to 8,268.54. Broader stock indicators also rose. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 7.86, or 0.9 percent, to 881.50, and the Nasdaq composite index rose 20.93, or 1.2 percent, to 1,732.87.

Wall Street extends Monday’s losses ahead of first-quarter earnings

Wall Street extended its losses into a second day Tuesday as worries about banks’ balance sheets and poor first-quarter earnings reports intensified.

The Dow Jones industrial average dropped more than 150 points while the broader indexes fell more than 1.5 percent.

Word that the International Monetary Fund was set to forecast $4 trillion in bad assets on banks’ books added to concerns about the financial industry. Published by The Times of London, the report underscored investors’ fears that the U.S. government’s recent efforts to purge banks of troublesome loans might not work.

Meanwhile, investors are bracing for the coming flood of first-quarter earnings reports. Aluminum giant Alcoa Inc. will kick off earnings season Tuesday after the close of the market.

Investors have been more optimistic in recent weeks, sending the major indexes up more than 20 percent from 12-year lows in early March on increasingly positive news about the economy. But many analysts have warned that the rally might not be sustainable, especially as first-quarter earnings loom.

In early morning trading, the Dow Jones industrial average dropped 155.07, or 1.9 percent, to 7,820.78. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 17.15, or 2.1 percent, to 818.33, while the Nasdaq composite index fell 29.17, or 1.8 percent, to 1,577.54.

Lifespan Prescribes Home Based Health Care Solution

Tom — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 14:27:32 +0000

Lifespan Inc. (Pink Sheets:LSPN) (www.lifespaninc.com) Lifespan announces that when Baby Boomers start turning 65 in 2011, approximately 8,000 Americans will become Medicare eligible every single day. The US currently has 37 million people over age 65, a figure the Census Bureau projects will hit 67 million by 2020 and 71.5 million by 2030 – nearly 20 percent of the U.S. population. At the same time, medical technology advances will continue to improve the survival rate of severely ill and injured patients, who then need home based health care, extensive therapy and nursing care.

Dr. Quyami the Company’s Chief Scientist and the Director of the nonprofit Centre of Excellence for Surgical Education & Innovation (www.cesei.org) stated that, “Technically advanced telemedicine based home healthcare is an extremely cost-effective, yet significantly underutilized health care option for seniors on Medicare.”

Additionally Dr. Quyami said, “In these times, it is crucially important that every taxpayer dollar is efficiently utilized. For basic health care, that means helping more Medicare patients receive the benefits of technically advanced home care systems, and online information and provider intervention, while expanding technical capacity to more economically accommodate their needs.”

Dr. William Blase is also adding his considerable expertise to the Lifespan Project by joining the Medical Advisory Board. Dr. Blase has had a distinguished career in all aspects of the medical profession, with a practice emphasis on Ophthalmology, a background in medical research, as well as administration and management issues of modern medical practice.

Dr. Blase is formerly the Chairman of the Department of Ophthalmology at the Hemet Valley Hospital and a Director of California Eye Care. Dr. Blase was also a Trustee for a California District Hospital System. Dr. Blase has also served eight years as a Trustee of the Valley Health System in Riverside California and was formerly the Chairman of the Board, as well as a Trustee of the Employee Health, Pension, and Retirement Funds.

Dr. Blase is also a Diplomate of the National Board of Medical Examiners, the American Board of Ophthalmology, and has published numerous articles and several book chapters. Dr. Blase is a graduate of Dartmouth College, the University of Virginia School of Medicine and Oxford University, and did his medical post graduate training at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore MD.

Lifespan Eyes Booster Shot for Electronic Medical Records

Tom — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 14:03:51 +0000

Lifespan Inc. (Pink Sheets:LSPN) (www.lifespaninc.com) Lifespan announces that as a result of the recently approved $20 billion devoted to Healthcare IT in the Stimulus Package, Dr. Quyami the Company’s Chief Scientist has determined to focus on utilizing the Lifespan System to create a HIPAA compliant Electronic Medical Record (EMR) for each person prescribed or utilizing Lifespan’s medical peripherals. The Company’s goal is to create a comprehensive program that will incorporate the results of testing systems into a web based EMR that will be instantly accessible by Patients, Physicians and other Providers.

Mr. Stuart Brame, the Company’s Chief Information Officer said, “The combination of the potential stimulus funding and the patents, technologies and medical scientific breakthroughs related to home health care that Dr. Qayumi and the Centre of Excellence for Surgical Education & Innovation (www.cesei.org) bring to the table certainly create opportunities for Lifespan. I am particularly excited about furthering the development of the ‘virtual patient’ which leads directly to the development of interactive 3D electronic medical records.”

President Obama’s Stimulus Package provides $20 billion to health care IT and pushes government agencies, doctors and hospitals to adopt Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and get medical records online. This is exactly the kind of impetus the Medical Industry needs to commence implementation of advanced technical solutions to the current healthcare morass. The goal is make sure your doctor has instant access to all your current medical information.

It is currently estimated that only 15 to 20 percent of physician offices and 20 to 25 percent of hospitals use electronic medical records, according to a study by the Rand Corp., a think tank based in Washington, D.C. This study estimates that EMR could save more than $77 billion in efficiency costs a year by reducing patients’ length of stay and doctors and nurses administrative tasks.

A new study shows that hospitals are way behind the curve in that effort. A Harvard study finds less than one in 10 hospitals has electronic records with doctors notes, patient’s allergies, shot records, x-rays, and prescriptions and few are able to communicate outside the building. Meaning, when you go to the emergency room they likely can’t pull down the records of what happened when you saw your physician last week.
