Salt Lake City, Utah (August 16, 2007) –

AdvancedMD® Software, Inc. www.advancedmd.com, the leading provider of Web-based practice management solutions for physician offices, announced today that they will add to its award winning offering by releasing Medical Messenger, a fully integrated patient communication system by Proximiti Communications.

“AdvancedMD is always looking for ways to add features that help our physician clients run better, more efficient and more profitable practices,” said Jim Pack, President and CEO of AdvancedMD. “Proximiti’s Medical Messenger seamlessly integrates with AdvancedMD’s scheduler to significantly improve patient satisfaction while driving down the number of no-shows – increasing office efficiency and revenues.”

Medical Messenger helps medical practices plan, manage and deliver patient communications. The system automatically calls, emails or text messages patients (based on their preferences) with appointment reminders, recall notices and other general communications.

Judy Huffman, Office Manager at Piedmont Endocrinology Associates in Hickory, NC says: “Our staff had to call over 100 patients a week (many of them 2 or 3 times) to confirm appointments and schedule follow-up visits. Now, Medical Messenger makes all these calls for us saving time and money everyday.”
