According to an article published in the August 22, 2006 edition of the New York Times (By Gina Kolata), "By 2030, predicts Robert W. Fogel, a Nobel laureate at the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business, about 25 percent of the G.D.P. will be spent on health care, making it "the driving force in the economy," just as railroads drove the economy at the start of the 20th century." Certain statements contained in this news release, which are not based on historical facts, are forward-looking statements as the term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are subject to substantial uncertainties and risks in part detailed in the respective Company's Securities and Exchange Commission 10-KSB, 10-QSB, S-8 and 8-K filings, that may cause actual results to materially differ from projections. Although the company believes that its expectations are reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its businesses, expectations, representations and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from their expectations. Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include the company's ability to execute properly its new business model, to raise substantial and immediate additional capital to implement its continuing business model, the ability to attract and retain personnel - including highly qualified executives, management and operational personnel, ability to negotiate favorable current debt and future capital raises, ability to manage the care of its patients with reasonable medical loss ration, ability to negotiate beneficial managed care agreements with a diversified and expanding provider base, continue to supply the services needed by the HMO clients as well as the growing list of physician clients and the inherent risk associated with a diversified business to achieve positive cash flow.
