Ultrasis Plc
('Ultrasis' or 'the Company')
Ultrasis and Agilisys Announce Strategic Partnership to bring Market-Leading
Healthcare Products to the UK's Public and Private Sectors
Ultrasis, the market leader of computer delivered interactive healthcare
products, today announced their Strategic Partnership with Agilisys, one of the
UK's most innovative IT and business process service providers.
Agilisys will now work in partnership with Ultrasis in taking its products to
market, targeting its own private and public sector client base as well as new
opportunities. Agilisys clients include a number of blue chip organisations such
as HBOS, Bank of Ireland, McDonald's, Lastminute.com and AOL as well as a number
of long-term partnerships with local authorities.
Agilisys has also completed development of the web-enabled version of Ultrasis'
'Beating the Blues' product - a computerised cognitive behavioural therapy
(CCBT) programme for mild and moderate depression. 'Beating the Blues' has been
proven to be a cost effective and time efficient way of helping people suffering
from these conditions to get better and stay better. In February 2006 the
National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommended 'Beating
the Blues' as a treatment option for all people presenting with mild or moderate
depression in primary and secondary care.
In addition, Agilisys will work with Ultrasis to implement the commitment made
in the White Paper 'Our Health, Our Care, Our Say' for the implementation of
'Beating the Blues' across the NHS by March 2007, once this has been finalised
by the Department of Health.
Nigel Brabbins, Ultrasis CEO adds: 'Agilisys has done an excellent job in
delivering a web-enabled version of Beating the Blues ready for launch. This
will enable Ultrasis to offer total flexibility in delivery, administration and
increased choice to healthcare professionals and patients alike. In addition, by
collaborating with Agilisys to bring our products to market we are already
building a significant pipeline of opportunities.'
Charles Mindenhall, Agilisys CEO, comments: 'Ultrasis has developed some great
products that are truly market leading as evidenced by the NICE endorsement. We
are delighted to be able to work with them to bring their products to market,
and to be able to expand our offering to our current clients. We look forward to
a long and successful partnership, supporting ongoing development and the growth
of the business.'

Mental illness 'biggest problem'
By Scheherazade Daneshkhu
Published: June 17 2006 03:00 | Last updated: June 17 2006 03:00
Three-quarters of the 6m people suffering from depression fail to receive treatment because of a shortage of qualified therapists, according to a report by Lord Professor Layard who called on the government to expedite funding to treat a "great submerged problem".
Mental illness had replaced unemployment as the UK's biggest social problem, said Lord Layard, as 1m people were receiving incapacity benefit due to it - more than the 950,900 claimant count of people out of work and receiving benefits.
One in six people suffer from depression or chronic anxiety and their inability to work resulted in a loss to national output of 12bn a year, equivalent to 1 per cent of national income.
A founder-director of the Centre for Economic Performance at the London School of Economics and occasional adviser to the government on well-being, Lord Layard called for "a complete revolution" to deal with a problem which, though widespread, "shame often keeps out of sight".
Lord Layard, is author of a recent book, Happiness, in which he argued that the objective of economic policy in affluent countries should be well-being and not economic growth.
He said the biggest single cause of misery in society was not poverty but mental illness. "There are few forms of deprivation worse than chronic mental illness," he said. At least half those suffering from chronic anxiety or depression could be successfully treated through psychological therapy at a cost of 750 per patient, according to the report, to be published on Monday.
Although the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence had issued guidelines to this effect, they were not being implemented because there were too few therapists, it added.
Only a quarter of those with mental illness were receiving treatment, mainly in the form of medication which was less effective than therapy.
The report outlined a seven-year 600m centrally led plan which would include the training of 10,000 therapists.

odsalrob copy of my one of my posts from earlier in the year
jamee106 my feeling is until sept when revenues become clear then it might trade in a different range.for long term holders like myself it makes no difference if they is a short time spike like the last one,having said that it is news driven and if tipped in a paper or a mag it will spike for day traders to get out,the co are moving away from this as it wants a stable s/price so they are being selective in the issue of newsflow.are you looking to exit on the first spike?
most of this is still relevent even though the s/price is well off from when i posted this.i still cant see much headway until sept unless a big deal is put out via rns that is not on a trail basis the market wants to see what revenues have been secured and the outlook.the company wont release revenues before the end of july
as it has not a duel listing here and in the us ,in that case they would issue every 3 months.

Ultrasis plc appoints Capital to boost financial communications
Ultrasis plc, the provider of computer-delivered, interactive healthcare products and associated services, has appointed Capital MS&L to lead its financial PR and investor relations.
The AIM-listed company wants to ensure potential investors, analysts, commentators and the healthcare sector are informed about its progress in delivering computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) programmes for the treatment of depression, stress and anxiety.
Using its expertise in health, psychology, software development and programme management, the company is targeting its computerised healthcare products at the NHS, the corporate sector and other healthcare providers in the UK and US.
Ultrasis won key endorsement in February 2006 when the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommended its Beating the Blues product, developed in collaboration with Dr Judy Proudfoot and her colleagues at the Institute of Psychiatry, London, as a treatment option for people with mild or moderate depression.
As the first to offer computerised products based on CBT and interactive multimedia, Ultrasis remains the world leader in this field. The Company's portfolio of clinically valid products helps people tackle stress, anxiety, depression and related chronic conditions.
Beating the Blues, in particular, is expected to have a major impact on the ability of GPs to offer non-pharmaceutical treatments and reduce waiting lists for cognitive behavioural therapy. CBT has been shown to be a cost effective and time efficient way of helping people suffering from anxiety and depression to get better and stay better.
Commenting on the appointment of Capital, Nigel Brabbins, Chief Executive of Ultrasis plc, said: "The NICE endorsement of our first product was a major landmark for us, but this sort of recognition is the result of a sustained effort by our team. Now more than previously, we need to make certain our stakeholders and customers understand our offering."
Peter Curtain, the Capital director leading the account, said: "We are delighted by this vote of confidence by the Ultrasis Board and look forward to working with this terrific Company."

This may be good news, maybe a little more positive info a little more often will help stabilise the share price a bit and stop the recent trend of declines in shareprice continuing.

I remember a post, I think it was Haystack with the immortal words "This share is doomed"... It made I laugh!
Seriously though, it would be worth understanding this a bit more, does anyone have any insight into this?
With over 50% of my stake now evaporated into thin air I have long past given up caring when it drops but would LOVE to understand why it is bucking the trend! Are there transactions that cannot be seen here? Cynic, I am sure you will have an opinion here!

Are there transactions that cannot be seen here?
gb yes there has been sells to the m/makers that will not show up on the buys & sells, this is why the s/price has been in a down trend since earlier in the year once the overhang is cleared then it should start to recover.
