BARIDATA Chooses OpSource to Deliver and Manage Life-Changing On-Demand Healthcare Solution; SaaS Places Critical Medical Information at the Fingertips of Healthcare Professionals to Help Obese Patients Live Longer, Healthier Lives

SANTA CLARA, CA - February 6

OpSource, the SaaS experts, announced today that BARIDATA, an on-demand electronic medical records (EMR) solution provider, has selected OpSource Optimal On-Demand to deliver and manage its life-changing application, designed to help physicians, hospital administrators and insurance companies provide better long-term outcomes for patients suffering from obesity. By delivering its offering using the SaaS model, BARIDATA provides healthcare professionals with round-the-clock access to a comprehensive set of resources for tracking and managing patients-all for a simple monthly fee, with no software to purchase or install. This highly secure and efficient EMR solution is fully HIPAA-compliant, with multiple levels of access privileges to ensure privacy, while enabling users to communicate, exchange medical records, and assess patient progress.

"BARIDATA is all about changing the trend of obesity, and enabling patients to live longer, healthier lives," said Mark Miles, CEO of BARIDATA. "To deliver our services with ubiquitous web access and the levels of service quality and availability our healthcare customers require, we needed a partner that could provide a complete SaaS solution. With OpSource, it's like having an entire division of our company to manage and monitor the technical infrastructure, the software application, and customer service -- with the added advantage of having a very predictable, growth-based pricing model. OpSource provides everything from the secure records retention and reporting we need for HIPAA compliance to the 24-hour call center that's so critical when the health of patients is on the line -- they continually go above and beyond to meet our business needs. OpSource is proving to us every day the power of SaaS for meeting critical medical needs."

"BARIDATA is on the leading edge of healthcare services," said Treb Ryan, Chief Executive Officer of OpSource. "Our complete SaaS solution is perfectly aligned with BARIDATA's business goals, enabling this innovative company to connect healthcare professionals with the critical patient information they need to diagnose, prescribe and deliver the best possible care -- anywhere, any time. These are the kinds of breakthrough capabilities that SaaS makes possible today, and OpSource is leading the way with not only a complete package of SaaS technologies and services, priced on-demand, but also the business model to work with BARIDATA as an integral partner to build and grow their success over the long term."

With OpSource Optimal On-Demand and Success-Based Pricing, BARIDATA is able to offer its licensed, subscription-based EMR solution with the highest level of application availability, security, and support. The complete solution from OpSource includes a fully managed SaaS infrastructure, a 24x7 call center under BARIDATA's brand, full application management, and more.

The entire infrastructure is built on OpSource's patent-pending technology platform, which supports rapid integration and deployment of on-demand offerings.

About BARIDATA

With approximately 125 million overweight patients in the U.S., quality of care and patient management have become key issues for medical professionals.
