Simavita to Integrate with MatrixCare EHR Solution


SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA--(Marketwired - June 3, 2015) - Simavita Limited ("Simavita" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SV)(ASX:SVA), a global leader in the digital healthcare sector, is pleased to announce the execution of a Corporate Integration Agreement (the "Agreement") with MatrixCare of Bloomington, Minnesota, USA.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Simavita and MatrixCare will collaborate to jointly develop an integrated solution to effect interoperability between Simavita's Smart Incontinence Management (SIM™) solution and MatrixCare's electronic health record (EHR) solution. The parties will also work together to deploy the integrated solution and their respective technologies to the US aged care sector.

MatrixCare is a leading EHR provider to the US long term, post-acute care healthcare market. Its solution is currently deployed across more than 7,000 aged care facilities in the US.

Once complete, the integrated solution will enable the significant number of Long Term Care organisations that currently use the MatrixCare EHR solution to seamlessly integrate the data generated by Simavita's SIM™ technology into their overall healthcare systems.

The use of electronic health record solutions by aged care providers, such as the one offered by MatrixCare, is now mandated in the US. The ability of SIM™ to integrate seamlessly with such systems represents a major opportunity to gain widespread acceptance of its technology in that market.

"We are extremely pleased to be partnering with MatrixCare to develop interoperability with their EHR solution," commented Simavita CEO, Philippa Lewis. "As a leader in their field, MatrixCare's EHR solution is widely used across the US and we are confident that an integrated solution will open many doors for Simavita to deploy its unique SIM™ technology," Mrs. Lewis continued.
