[By NBC-1TV H. J Yook]EasyMed Services Inc. (CNSX:EZM)(PINKSHEETS:EMYSF)(MUN:EY6) (“EasyMed” or the “Company”) announces that the report of a large-scale study conducted by the University Hospital of Geneva, using EasyMed's Easy SmartCare technology, has been published in the BMC Health Service Research journal (2013 Apr 4;13:125) and is now available online with open-access publisher, BioMed Central.

BioMed Central publishes open-access, online, peer-reviewed journals in the fields of science, technology and medicine (STM). It is owned by Springer Science+Business Media, the world's largest STM book publisher and second largest journal publisher.

“In October, 2012, we informed investors about a study to test the relative effectiveness of telephone calls and text messages for reducing missed appointments in a primary care context,” stated Mr. Tejinder Sahota, CEO of EasyMed. “The study was undertaken by the University Hospital of Geneva using EasyMed's Easy SmartCare technology platform and involving 6,450 patients. The results of the study confirmed our own assertions that text messages are just as effective as telephone calls in reducing missed appointments but are far more resource-efficient. Texts were preferred by the majority of patients and reduced missed appointments by almost 30%, resulting in significant cost savings for the relevant hospital departments.”
