Ramp Announces Five-Year CareGiver(TM) Contract With Rockville Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center
NEW YORK, Feb. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ramp Corporation (Amex: RCO)
today announced that it has signed a 5-year contract with the Rockville
Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center ("Rockville") for the deployment of
its HealthRamp CareGiver technology. Ramp, through its wholly-owned
HealthRamp subsidiary, markets CareGiver, a comprehensive solution for the
long term care industry that allows facility staff to easily place orders for
drugs, treatments and supplies from a wireless handheld PDA or desktop
Internet web browser.
"CareGiver fits our long-term needs to drive quality patient care in the
most efficient manner. CareGiver's future development will bring even greater
flexibility and control for our nursing staff, while providing easy and
comprehensive information for management," stated Rockville Skilled Nursing
Administrator, Steve Edelstein.
"We continue to find very strong initial demand for our CareGiver suite of
technology across long term care facilities of all sizes and specialties.
Rockville represents a smaller venue, with its own tailored needs, where
CareGiver can provide a significant amount of utility for all types of users.
Our contracting efforts are gathering steam, and we remain excited about the
possibility for dramatically increasing our CareGiver beds under contract over
the coming months," stated Ramp CEO and President, Andrew Brown.
Ramp Corporation, through its wholly owned HealthRamp subsidiary, develops
and markets the CareGiver and CarePoint suite of technologies. CarePoint
enables electronic prescribing, lab orders and results, Internet-based
communication, data integration, and transaction processing
over a handheld device or browser, at the point-of-care. CareGiver enables
long term care facility staff to easily place orders for drugs, treatments and
supplies from a wireless handheld PDA or desktop web browser. HealthRamp's
products enable communication of value-added healthcare information among
physician offices, pharmacies, hospitals, pharmacy benefit managers, health
management organizations, pharmaceutical companies and health insurance
companies. Additional information about Ramp can be found at http://www.Ramp.com.
