PracticeXpert Completes Acquisition of Transcriptions Plus


LOS ANGELES, Jan. 10, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- PracticeXpert, Inc. (OTCBB:PXPT), today announced that it has completed the acquisition of Transcriptions Plus, a transcription services company located in Palm Springs, California

Transcriptions Plus has been in business for more than 20 years, is headed by transcription industry veterans and currently has approximately 15 clients, which include a number of hospitals that service approximately 1200-1300 hospital-based physicians. Revenues in its most recent fiscal year were approximately $800,000. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the previous owners of Transcriptions Plus received a cash payment of $300,000, and a $100,000 note payable over twelve months.

Jonathan Doctor, chief executive officer of PracticeXpert, stated, "While our core business is medical billing and practice management solutions for physicians, with the acquisition of Singer Medscript in Texas last year we added transcription services as an ancillary product offering. Many of the physicians to whom we provide medical billing and other related services, also use transcription services. By offering transcription services to our current customers, it provides us the opportunity to add additional revenues from our existing customer base.

"It is our intention to combine the operations of the southern California business, and our Texas operations, into one transcription division that will provide transcription services to physicians from all of our other divisions, as needed. Completion of this acquisition will double the size of our transcription revenues, and give us additional opportunities to sell our medical billing services and practice management solutions to those physician customers acquired through this transaction."
