About Medscape

Medscape(R) (NASDAQ: MDLI) is a leading provider of digital health records and online medical information. The Company delivers patient-centered, clinical healthcare data and medical information to healthcare professionals and consumers wherever that information is needed. The core of Medscape's product portfolio is the industry-leading Digital Health Record (DHR). DHR applications and services are an integral part of the practice of medicine and are used every day by physicians and consumers across the country.

Medscape's DHR enables physicians to access patient information, share data with existing systems, communicate among practice members and capture and store quantifiable data for patient-by-patient or population-based studies. The DHR also enables practice sites to interact with their patients electronically to answer questions, schedule appointments and address personal health concerns, while offering consumers private access to their medical records and related disease management information and services. More than 15 million patients now have digital records hosted on Medscape systems. Medscape is also the leading source of peer-reviewed medical information and continuing medical education on the Web. Nearly 4.0 million members, including 675,000 registered as physicians and approximately 1.9 million registered as allied health professionals, use Medscape.com for immediate access to research, recent developments and information to guide their practices and support patient care. Approximately 1.4 million registered consumers have also come to rely on Medscape for health information.

The integration of Medscape's authoritative Web sites with the breadth of its clinical applications and products, strengthen the physician-patient relationship at--and beyond--each encounter, resulting in a positive impact on healthcare costs, efficiencies, safety and outcomes. The merger of MedicaLogic, Inc. and Medscape, Inc. in May 2000 formed MedicaLogic/Medscape, Inc., d/b/a Medscape. The Company, headquartered in Hillsboro, Oregon, currently employs approximately 365 people.
