CSI's High Standards Consistent with Latest ACA Guidelines

San Diego, California, March 21, 2007 -- CSI Financial Services, a national leader in automated patient financing solutions and management of self-pay healthcare accounts, today announced that its internal corporate policies fully conform to the latest healthcare collections and debt purchasing guidelines issued by the board of directors of ACA International, the Association of Credit and Collection Professionals (ACA).

According to Mitch Patridge, CSI's chief executive officer, CSI adopted standards and processes that are consistent with today's ACA guidelines when the company was established in 1993. According to Patridge, "We have always sought to follow the highest standards. Though the recent ACA Statement won't significantly impact our operations, we welcome this type of industry oversight. It encourages a high level of professionalism and ethical conduct within a field that is new and rapidly growing -- and thus is particularly vulnerable to procedural shortcuts and missteps."

Called "Healthcare Collection, Servicing and Debt Purchasing Practices -- Statement of Principles and Guidelines," ACA's three-page document sets forth specific procedural, operational and ethical guidelines relating to the collection, servicing and purchase of healthcare debt. ACA formally published the guidelines on February 22 as a direct result of a yearlong study of the healthcare receivables marketplace. A task force of ACA member agencies, ACA member debt purchasers and healthcare providers conducted the study. The guidelines address patient communications, business relationships, legal and compliance and operations.

In a public press release, ACA noted that the sale of healthcare receivables is a relatively new phenomenon. Nevertheless, ACA President Mike Shoop points out that "ACA member agencies have always been sensitive to healthcare providers' needs, and now these companies have a new tool for communicating that respect and dedication to their healthcare clients."
