SAN DIEGO, CA, October 10, 2006 –IntelliDOT™ Corporation, an innovator in patient safety and workflow management solutions for healthcare, today announced that the company has signed a three-year agreement with the Amerinet Incorporated. Under terms of the agreement, IntelliDOT will provide optimized pricing for its handheld bar code patient safety technology, the CAREt™ System, to more than 2,100 Amerinet member hospitals nationwide.

The CAREt System is the first nurse-centered workflow manager to connect caregivers with the information systems they need at the point of care. Built on a design that complements the way nurses work, the CAREt System provides a straightforward user interface that supports a comprehensive approach to medication safety and documentation at bedside, in a variety of healthcare settings.

”We are pleased to welcome IntelliDOT Corporation as a new group purchasing partner,” said Allen R. Dunehew, RPh, MPA Chief Contracting Officer. “By offering the CAREt System, we give our member hospitals a proven technology to help their patients, staff and bottom line.”

"We are eager to support Amerinet's mission to promote quality health care delivery and help providers better manage expenses,” said Thomas Klopack, president and chief executive officer of IntelliDOT Corporation. “The user-friendly CAREt System is proven technology that eradicates bedside medication errors and enhances the overall quality of care by protecting caregivers and improving bottom-line financial results for hospitals. By adding this technology, Amerinet members can move another step closer to eliminating medication errors in their hospitals."

The integrated hardware and software solution provided by IntelliDOT results in a cost-effective “smart hardware” system for hospitals looking for a customized design for caregivers at the bedside.  By simply scanning a patient wristband, the CAREt Handheld guides the nurse through all required medication administration and documentation tasks that have accumulated for a patient.  Information is clear, organized and delivered right into the caregiver's hand, right when it's needed.
