MMRGlobal CEO Robert H. Lorsch said, "We are encouraged by the fact that the Company continues to receive validation of its intellectual property from the USPTO and other similar agencies globally. As a result of the increased media attention surrounding the Affordable Care Act, patients, employers and providers are recognizing the importance of individuals and families having secure online access to their personal health information through the use of Personal Health Records, which also can maintain other important documents such as insurance policies and claims data. We believe the market for Personal Health Records such as the Company's MyMedicalRecords PHR and other healthcare IT products that MMR licenses and provides will continue to grow. There are no accidents. By sticking with MMR's core mission of creating products and services designed to help reduce medical costs and save lives in an emergency the Company believes it is in the right place at the right time."
