“Alta Terra Ventures… developer of the MaxOS Linux operating
system, has announced that it has entered a licensing agreement
with Pro-Active Health Inc. (PAH), a private US company providing
health care providers with instant and secure patient information
over a network only accessible to authorized users. The agreement
permits PAH to run MaxOS Linux on its clients’ servers and desktop
computers, and the MaxOS Linux embedded OS in their hand held
wireless units.”

“Pro-Active-Health Inc. brings a new technology to the health
care arena. It is a closed doctors’ network designed to enhance
healthcare to the patient, while assisting the professional
healthcare provider in achieving a higher quality of patient
service, improving the efficiency of the provider and still
protecting the patients’ privacy.”

“It will automate many of the services of health care providers.
In fact, many of the aspects that would appear to be PAH
competition, such as chip cards, data base systems, medical
billings, and patient file systems, are potential clients for PAH.
The company is already marketing the product, and has received an
order for the system in South Korea.”
