Jan 07, 2010 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- MMR Information Systems and
Unis-Tonghe Technology, or UNIS, have signed a definitive joint venture
agreement to deploy a customized version of MMR's MyMedicalRecords proprietary
personal health record, or PHR, services and MMRPro professional document
imaging and management solutions in China.

UNIS, a subsidiary of Unisplendour Corporation, and a division of Tsinghua
Holdings, is one of the China's IT firms.

UNIS intends to launch the MyMedicalRecords technology platform along with a
Chinese electronic medical records (EMR) system using MMR and UNIS technology in
support of UNIS medical records development project, said MMR.

Luo Jianhui, vice president and chairman of Unisoft Group for UNIS, and Robert
Lorsch, chairman and CEO of MMR, made the announcement.

The joint venture, working with Nihilent, MMR's technology partner in India,
will integrate the MyMedicalRecords PHR and MMRPro system into an EMR health IT
platform to be used in China's healthcare market.

MMR also plans to work with UNIS to ultimately provide electronic safe deposit
box storage solutions based on its MyEsafeDepositBox to the fin ancial, legal and
insurance industries, which UNIS will help MMR introduce in China.

Mr Lorsch said: "The Chinese version of MMR's popular personal health record,
plus integration of MMRPro into a Chinese EMR system, will benefit Chinese
citizens by providing them access to copies of their own personal health
information. Currently, the Chinese population has very limited access so
clearly this solution will make it easier to share medical records throughout
the public and private Chinese hospital system, which has not been easily done
in the past.

"By enabling hospitals and doctors to share a patient's health history utilizing
existing medical records, the best possible care can be provided while reducing
medical costs to individuals and the government."
