Orlando, FL, March 6, 2006, PR/Newswire - AMICAS, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMCS), a leader in radiology and medical image and information management solutions, announced Vision Series Financials 7.0, a major version release, representing a significant investment to its proven financial software platform. The release will be highlighted at the AMICAS National Customer Conference (ANCC), the company’s annual client conference on March 6-8, 2006, in Orlando, Florida.

Vision Series Financials 7.0 has been designed with the entire Vision Series suite of products and services in mind. Specifically, the release is expected to provide greater interoperability with Vision Series RIS and Document Management offerings. Additionally, 7.0 provides a large number of feature requests and enhancements designed to provide a greater degree of usability, flexibility and integration. "As a leader in end-to-end imaging center and broader imaging business software solutions, Vision Series Financials is the foundation of an imaging business’s operations," said Mr. Glen Lefeber, vice president Financial Products Group at AMICAS, Inc. "By increasing the level of interoperability, we further enhance our customer’s ability to improve productivity and efficiency in their revenue cycle operations," added Mr. Lefeber.

The enhanced product is the result of a collaboration and direct feedback from the company’s financials customer base, and specifically the AMICAS Customer Advisory Committee (CAC). The AMICAS CAC is a group of highly knowledgeable and leading customers which meets on a quarterly basis and plays a big part in prioritizing key feature development and guiding the process.

"I am pleased that AMICAS takes the time to really listen to its customers – to make them a part of the definition and prioritization of future product features and enhancements," said Mr. Ted Lagala, Vice President and Chief Information Officer of Sonix Medical Resources, a business of over 18 imaging centers, billing services and health management services (www.sonixmr.com). "In doing so, they are able to deliver a product that meets the needs of the industry, ultimately serving as an impetus for business growth."

"A robust and automated financial solution lays the groundwork for great product intra-operability, including PACS, RIS and Document Management. Vision Series Financials 7.0 is designed and developed with this in mind. As our customers’ needs evolve, so will their product requirements - to empower our customers to build their business, we continue to develop products to support such growth," Mr. Lefeber added.

Vision Series Financials represents over thirty years of experience in the revenue cycle management business. Vision Series Financials provides comprehensive automation of all facets of medical revenue cycle management including tight integration with AMICAS EDI Services.

Mr. Peter McClennen, president of AMICAS, Inc. said, "We are very fortunate to have such a tremendous group of customers that utilize our financials products line. Led by our CAC and supported by many other active customers, we are able to develop in partnership directly with customer requests to deliver an enhanced offering of our market leading product."

Vision Series Financials 7.0 is scheduled to be generally available in the second half of 2006.
