Downtime Protection and Business Continuity

Natick, MA – May 15, 2007 – Interbit Data, a leading provider of secure and reliable access to information in the MEDITECH® Hospital Information System, introduces NetSafe, a new product which provides downtime protection and business continuity to hospitals and providers. NetSafe provides a critical service to both hospitals and providers to assure access to patient information when network systems are down or temporarily inoperable.

NetSafe captures reports generated by the HCIS, automatically extracts data elements and stores the reports at locations throughout your network at regular intervals to ensure the most recent patient data is readily available. In the event of a network or system outage, users can search the local reports for patient information, viewing or printing the information from PDF files. NetSafe assures users peace of mind that the critical patient data within their network is always accessible on their network even when the network is not functioning.

“Healthcare facilities need continuous access to critical patient data in order to provide the highest quality care,” said Arthur Young, president of Interbit Data. “When the systems become unavailable because of a network or system outage, having the most recent patient data readily available eliminates the potential risk of having out of date information on their patients.”

NetSafe offers additional features and benefits that ensure efficiency, security and peace of mind:

• Define and capture an unlimited number of reports and rules.
• Scan reports for locations and automatically deliver to appropriate devices.
• Store data at an unlimited number of locations throughout your network.
• Send reports to multiple locations to improve efficiency.
• Encrypt and/or zip data to maintain confidentiality and preserve space.
• Search data with a simple GUI client to retrieve report information.
• Create audit trail through comprehensive logging and store logs of all reports on the central server.
