ATLANTA, GA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/19/09 -- ALR Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: ALRT) announces that insurance carriers will reimburse physicians for remote care of patients by using the ALRT Health-E-Connect System. Healthcare professionals can monitor patient data on-line and intervene to improve clinical outcomes using the proprietary Health-E-Connect System. The ALRT platform is a technology tool for caregivers to track diagnostic data, including blood glucose and nebulizer treatments, for timely review, patient communication and intervention.</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT face="Times New Roman,Times New Roman,Times,serif" size=2>The ongoing benefit of this extension of care is expected to enhance adherence to physician prescribed therapie s for the benefit of patients with chronic conditions such as diabetes, COPD and cystic fibrosis. Improved adherence including medications, daily blood glucose and other diagnostic testing, diet and exercise, will prevent or delay complications due to chronic diseases. It will also improve outcome and reduce the cost of care. Other chronic conditions, like HIV/AIDS, coronary heart disease and congestive heart failure, are future ALRT targets to be included in remote care.</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT face="Times New Roman,Times New Roman,Times,serif" size=2>ALRT's System is compatible with several of the leading glucometer brands and nebulizer compressors. With reimbursement approval for physicians, there will be significant demand for compatible glucometers, nebulizers and other durable medical equipment (DME) for remote care.</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT face="Times New Roman,Times New Roman,Times,serif" size=2>About ALR Technologies Inc. The ALRT Health-E-Connect Disease Management System is designed to enhance compliance of prescribed therapies and report diagnostic data from a number of devices to health professionals for monitoring of patients.
