Former AMISYS CEO to drive corporate growth through increased adoption of
member‐centric care management software
BEDFORD, Mass.; – December 4, 2008 – Casenet, Inc., a provider of innovative care management
software solutions, today announced that Kevin Brown has been appointed chief executive officer
effective immediately. Brown has more than twenty years of experience managing fast‐growth
technology companies within the healthcare industry. His expertise in enterprise product development
and customer support across payer markets will add further focus to Casenet’s mission of creating
cutting‐edge care management software solutions backed by solid customer service support. Former
CEO Brian O’Neill will be transitioning to an advisory role.
“As CEO, Mr. O’Neill has successfully led Casenet’s rapid growth as an innovator in care management
software from its early stages. The Board thanks him for his considerable contributions to Casenet and
wishes him every success in the future,” stated Peter Grua, partner at HLM Venture Partners.
Mr. Grua continued, “We are excited to have Kevin take the helm at Casenet. Kevin is an experienced
entrepreneur with a successful track record of growing enterprise solution healthcare companies and his
expansive network and deep industry knowledge will provide the team with an even better
understanding of where the market is going, which will drive innovation and help anticipate and fulfill

Brown was formerly president, CEO and chairman of the board of AMISYS Managed Care Systems, a
provider of health insurance and managed care information systems. During his ten year tenure, he
grew the company from a one million dollar managed healthcare software business to a 68 million dollar
(1998 revenues) publicly‐held market leader with 105 health plan customers. Later, Brown was
president and CEO of Amisys Synertech Inc. (ASI) where he increased revenues by 20 percent, developed
a consumer‐directed processing product, and drove a customer service initiative that resulted in the

profitable offshore business that helped ASI realize significant cost savings and improved ASI’s market

DSTHS since its formation, which serves a customer base of over 150 payers.
