All of HPS products and services incorporate the industry’s highest standards for security and

capitalize on the increasing emphasis on secure and HIPAA compliant claims processing;

secure clinical record keeping. HPS software products include:
• HPS Total Administrator is a HIPAA compliant software suite used by insurance
payers, particularly by a niche market that includes unions and other self insured benefit
plans covered under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Clients
can choose which modules to purchase and implement. All modules integrate with one
another, including: eligibility; medical, dental, and hospital claims processing; medical
management; disability and death benefit management; and pension and annuity
management.
The market for HPS Total Administrator, principally self insured health plans, is over
10,000 customers in the United States, with 1,500 in the NY-CN-NJ tri-state area alone.
Revenue from a new sale averages $600,000 with ongoing maintenance revenue of
18% of sales. HPS currently has 27 self-insured health plan clients (principally union
funds) and has over an 80% win rate responding to requests for proposals. HPS has
expanded its sales reach by winning clients in the Mid-West. Few of the 10,000 plus
self-insured health plans meet the federal requirements for HIPAA security and EDI.
Nearly all of these plans will significantly benefit from using the HPS product.

• The HPS Smart HealthCard is a revolutionary health care record keeping system which
combines the functionality of a patient-controlled personal health record with that of a
physician based medical record. The system is a web-enabled combination of a patient-
controlled smartcard and a secure data repository. It simply and inexpensively allows for
the coordination of patient care, as well as timely and secure insurance eligibility
confirmation and claims processing. It will be marketed to large private and government
payers and to large employer groups in the United States and overseas. The system
provides patients with a longitudinal health record and the ability to ensure that their care
Health Plan Systems, Inc,

is coordinated and meets expected care guidelines and safety standards. It provides
payers with significant cost savings for eligibility maintenance and claims processing,
while providing data needed for quality improvement and disease management. The
card can be “branded” so that it is seen as a benefit from an employer organization or
health plan or other organization. The record belongs to the patient so that if there is a
change in employer or health plan the record is maintained with no loss of data or
continuity. The system provides significant time and cost benefits for clinicians,
including real-time eligibility and claims processing Clinicians will be provided card
readers by the payer organization using the system. It does not have the usual cost and
complexity barriers to physician implementation of outpatient computer based record
systems.
Other Western countries are implementing far less robust and functional healthcare
smart cards. Survey data indicate acceptance of patient control over their own health
records and the use of a smartcard with healthcare information. The market size in the
United States, not including ongoing maintenance and transaction fees, is
approximately $9 Billion The first large scale implementation will be in Khanh Hoa
Province in Central Vietnam, where the public health authorities have approved a
project to coordinate care for its 1.2 million citizens. This will be a large scale proof-of-
concept as well as a pilot project for Vietnam’s 85 million people.

• Other Products and Services: HPS Total Administrator and the HPS Smart
HealthCard system contain functionality which can be marketed and licensed
separately. Examples include: a web-based provider practice management solution;
an EDI interface which enables other practice management vendors to provide HIPAA
compliant and secure EDI transactions; clearinghouse functionality which enables
payers to provide legally mandated HIPAA compliant eligibility queries and claims
processing; a credentialing module incorporating National Committee for Quality
Assurance (NCQA) standards, which allows hospitals, group practices and managed
care organizations to maintain clinician credentialing information that is required by
regulatory and licensing entities, as well as for billing and payment. HPS also provides
high quality and cost effective software customization services often requested by its
clients. This includes private labeling of its software, and complete customer support.
HPS has invested approximately $5 Million, internally funding all of its research and
development of Smart Healthcard. It is now well positioned with cost effective, easy to
implement, and integrated software solutions for payers, patients, and providers.

for other expenses necessary for securing patents and preparing for a private placement of
$10 to $20 million.
