MMRGlobal Projects Significant Increases in Revenues From Government Mandated Programs

LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 21, 2014) - MMRGlobal, Inc. (OTCQB: MMRF) ("MMR" or the "Company") today announced that in addition to its projections that first quarter 2014 revenue from all sources is expected to be among the highest in MMR's history, the Company believes that trend will continue based on federal laws and rules including the recently updated Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA). Under the HITECH Act, Meaningful Use requirements mandate that eligible healthcare providers make available personal health information online such as through a Personal Health Record (PHR) to at least fifty percent of all patients, while under the amended CLIA, laboratories will be able to offer direct access to lab test results to one hundred percent of all lab patients through Personal Health Record systems and patient portals including MyMedicalRecords or other systems that may be licensed by MMR. As a result of the government mandates driven by the Affordable Care Act, HITECH and CLIA, MMR believes its revenues will grow at rates significantly higher than projected industry growth rates while its Personal Health Record patents and other intellectual property increase in value. 

Calling attention to an article regarding the updated CLIA at http://ihealthtran.com/wordpress, the Company believes that the new federal rule on the exchange of health data from labs will have a significant effect on both MMR's revenues and its ability to license its patented PHR products and services. With the new rule removing legal barriers that prevented patients from receiving laboratory results direct from the labs in all 50 states, subscribers to the Company's MyMedicalRecords PHR can now have their laboratory test results easily sent into a secure, password-protected PHR account.

In a Frost & Sullivan report announced on March 6, 2012 entitled "The U.S. Personal Health Records Market: Understanding Technical and Strategic Imperatives around Consumer-Focused Health IT," Frost & Sullivan projects the market for PHR software to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8 percent, specifically from $312.2 million in 2012 to $414.8 million in 2015. According to references used in an October 15, 2012 investment report for Cerner Corporation (http://tippie.uiowa.edu/henry/reports12/cern_f12.pdf) and in 2013 MMR patent valuations (http://tinyurl.com/m3xecgv), the world healthcare IT market is expected to grow from $99.6 billion in 2010 to $162.2 billion in 2015 at a CAGR of 10.2%. In the case of MMR's most recently completed quarter, the Company expects to announce growth at multiples of more than several hundred percent, compared to the previous year.
