Press Release Source: Visual Healthcare Corp. On Tuesday March 29, 2011, 12:01 pm

RENO, NV--(Marketwire - 03/29/11) - Visual Healthcare Corp. (the "Company") (Pinksheets:VSHC - News) announces that some of the new web based software platforms it has been developing will have the capacity to enable flexible light applications to help physicians bring down the cost of following patients suffering from chronic conditions. A new generation of efficiency applications will have to be deployed if U.S. health costs are to be contained, ranging from elimination of duplication to better home care monitoring of seniors.

Many different disease management programs attempted over the past two decades have been unsuccessful in trying to help providers and caregivers manage conditions which affect large sections of the population in a chronic, systematic fashion. Management of chronic illness has long been thought to benefit from information database technology.

It has long been common knowledge that chronic conditions may in fact represent and affect an inordinate slice of American healthcare spending. A recent study in the October 2010 issue of McKinsey Quarterly, published by McKinsey & Co., postulated that up to three quarters of all healthcare expenditures may stem from chronic conditions. The authors of the study, Dr. Stefan Brandt, PhD, Dr. Jan Hartmann, MD, and Dr. Steffen Hehner, PhD, make a strong case for the need to bring these costs under control.

"We need technology based solutions so physicians can save time and cost in treating chronic diseases," says Visual Healthcare Chairman Gerard Dab. "We intend to provide tools that can support the wide array of distinct applications that will be required to bring down the cost of caring for some 100 million Americans who suffer from well-known chronic illnesses."
