LEXINGTON, Ky., Jan. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VirtualHealth Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: VHGI) announced today that they have reached a mutual understanding and verbal agreement in principle to sell secure data and messaging provider, Secure eHealth, LLC, and certain other technology assets to Wound Management Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: WNDM). Both parties have completed the due diligence process, agreed to the price and terms and are currently drafting definitive documentation on this transaction with an expectation to close the transaction within the next two weeks. In addition to the sale of Secure eHealth, VHGI will also be transferring all of the intellectual property assets of the real-time prescription drug monitoring company Veriscrip and the Private Access Convertible Note and Agreements. Wound Care Innovations, a WNDM subsidiary, currently licenses the Cifra solution from Secure eHealth and will initially use this highly secure messaging system, document courier and database to share and compile information for ongoing evidence based case studies on its patented collagen CellerateRx® products for treating diabetic wounds. According to Jim Renfro, President of VirtualHealth Technologies, "The time was right for VHGI to divest itself of Secure eHealth, our primary focus now is on the building of shareholder value by directing our efforts where the market is providing the greatest opportunity." Renfro continues, "For now that direction is the development of our gold mining assets which promise to have tremendous value in a relatively short amount of time."

As currently negotiated, the terms of acquisition will include $100,000 in cash and a note for $400,000 also included is Wound Management's purchasing of VirtualHealth's convertible note and agreements with Private Access, Inc., the Irvine based innovator in privacy-enhanced search technology and licensee of Secure eHealth's System Tray Notifier. However, VHGI will retain its near 5% ownership interest in Private Access which was received under the original investment into Private Access. A royalty agreement will also be established for VHGI relative to any business acquired by Secure eHealth using the Veriscrip real-time prescription drug monitoring technology. Specific details will be set forth in the definitive transaction documents. Closing of the transaction is dependent on the successful negotiation and execution of the definitive transaction documents.
