SureQuest Systems, Inc. Announces Agreement with Netsmart Technologies, Inc.
DALLAS, Jun 9, 1999 (BW HealthWire via COMTEX) -- SureQuest Systems,
Inc. (OTC BB:DIET), a Nevada Corporation, today announced a marketing
and licensing agreement with Netsmart Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:NTST).
The Agreement provides for Netsmart's wholly owned subsidiary Creative
Socio-Medics to sublicense SureQuest dietary software systems to its
behavioral health care clients. Creative Socio-Medics is a leading
provider of consulting, software development, project management and
training to the behavioral health care market.
The Company also announced that it has completed the first stage of
development for its affiliated consumer web site, MenuTrition.com.
MenuTrition.com, which is scheduled to be on-line in the next 60 days,
will ultimately include many of the sophisticated features from the
existing SureQuest nutritional and dietary software. In addition, the
site will allow users to create complete family health profiles,
provide nutrient and supplement recommendations, and permit grocery and
vitamin purchases at significant discounts. MenuTrition.com is being
designed with the intent to be the most comprehensive free nutritional
web site on the Internet. Current sites found on the likes of Yahoo
(Nasdaq:YHOO), America Online (NYSE:AOL), GeoCities (Nasdaq:GCTY),
Excite (Nasdaq:XCIT), iVillage, Inc. (Nasdaq:IVIL) and Infoseek
(Nasdaq:SEEK) have not offered a complete nutritional and e-commerce
destination. Management believes MenuTrition.com will compete directly
with current web destinations hosted by companies such as General
Nutrition Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq:GNCI), Kaire Holdings, Inc. (OTC
BB:KAHI), Mannatech, Inc. (Nasdaq:MTEX), Whole Foods Market
(Nasdaq:WFMI), Aetna US Healthcare (NYSE:AEI) and Micro Laboratories,
Inc. (OTC BB:MLAR).
SureQuest Systems, Inc. is a leading provider of dietary management
software to the health care and food services industry.
