Subtitle: Acquisition of the market leader for hospital information
systems

Koblenz (euro adhoc) - January 11, 2011: CompuGroup Medical stays
focused on pursuing their growth strategy. The company today executed
a contract with MCS for the acquisition of all assets of Parametrix
AG and Parametrix Deutschland GmbH. With this purchase, CompuGroup
Medical, the provider of medical information technology, is now
represented in the Swiss healthcare market. Parametrix is the Swiss
market leader in the hospital information sector.

The company, who has 51 employees, has their primary headquarters in
Niederwangen near Bern and also has a subsidiary in Eltville,
Germany. With a market share of close to 30% of the acute care
hospital sector and nearly 20% of rehabilitation and social services
facilities, Parametrix is a market leader for hospital information
systems (HIS) in Switzerland. The total revenues in 2010 were almost
6 million euros, based on the acquired assets.

"The acquisition of Parametrix is a strategic investment in the acute
care and rehabilitation market and a further step in our pursuit of
being a leader in the worldwide e-health market," emphasized Frank
Gotthardt, chairman of CompuGroup Medical AG. "Our expansion strategy
has proven itself to be successful and we will remain on that path
and continue our growth so we can provide even more hospitals and
medical centers with optimal solutions at the international level,"
continued the company founder.

The entry into the Swiss healthcare market comes at a very opportune
time. Based on numbers that were provided by the OECD, in 2006
Switzerland had the second-highest healthcare expenses in the world
when measured as a share of the gross domestic product. After the
successful integration of Parametrix´s products into the corporation,
the existing software will be upgraded for the international platform
strategy. Swiss hospitals will therefore have access to modular
solutions that can easily be integrated into existing processes. They
will contribute to slimming down operating procedures and thereby a
significant reduction of costs.
