OCS, INC. AND SIMIONE CONSULTANTS ADVANCE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT


Seattle, WA (July 16, 2008) – OCS, Inc. and Simione Consultants announce a new way for home health agencies to compare their financial data, without relying on cost reports. The new Financial Monitor™, a comprehensive collection of reports that evaluates financial performance with trended graphs and comparisons to national benchmarks will be introduced at the NAHC 14th Annual Financial Management Conference in Las Vegas. This new offering combines the financial data and reporting expertise of Simione and OCS.
