Medicaid Asthma Compliance Program to Begin Implementing ALR Technologies' Constant Health Companion for Compliance and Monitoring of Disease Management Services


WINSTON-SALEM, NC -- (MARKET WIRE) -- February 14, 2007 -- ALR Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: ALRT) announces that PageMinder, Inc., a health compliance services company based in Nevada, MO, is kicking off their program to provide specialized disease management services to a population of Missouri Medicaid asthma patients. ALR Technologies' compliance reminder and monitoring system, the Constant Health Companion™, will be utilized in this new program designed to keep people healthier and to reduce overall cost of care.

Bob Reed, President of PageMinder, reports that they are excited about the expected positive outcomes. "By ensuring that patients administer their medications and treatments on time, we expect to deliver better medical outcomes while at the same time lowering the overall cost of patient care," he explains.

"The Constant Health Companion system provides important features and benefits that not only help keep patients on their disease management regimens, but also allows for intervention as needed. We expect both healthier patients and lower costs for Missouri Medicaid. The Missouri Medicaid program is a leader in implementing advances that will provide better care for their patient population and we think this is something that will be of interest to other state Medicaid programs too," adds Reed.

In a 2005 Missouri Medicaid study, Medicaid costs were shown to be lower for diabetes patients, by $3,416 annually per enrollee, using a compliance reminder system.
