In mid-2003, Informed Decisions and Florida Medicaid, with the support and approval
of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, entered into a collaboration
to launch the wireless eMPOWERx system to 1,000 of the highest prescribing Florida
Medicaid prescribers. Since Informed Decisions implemented eMPOWERx, Florida Medicaid
has achieved a significant reduction in severe drug interactions, accomplished major
cost savings, and accomplished a reduction in fraud. Consequently, Florida has requested
and approved expansion of the program.

Informed Decisions is currently the prime contractor for collaboration with the
Mississippi Division of Medicaid to provide eMPOWERx to 225 of the State’s top Medicaid
prescribers.
