Following the exit from the smart card business December 31, 2008, SPMI began initial work to launch its new business of providing financial services to plaintiff personal injury attorneys and their clients. The acquisition of One Source is one part of this new business initiative. SPMI intends to pro-actively support personal injury attorneys and injured victims by: - directly investing in appropriate personal injury cases to pay for necessary and appropriate treatment for musculo-skeletal injuries resulting from accidents and certain other expenses of injured victims; and - providing a care management program that advocate for the injured victims by moving treatment forward to conclusion without the delay and hindrance of the legal process. The Market. SPMI believes there are more than $250 Billion in tort lawsuit settlements annually. The number of motor vehicle accidents, medical mal-practice, wrongful death and other negligence claims, settlement amounts, and jury verdicts in the United States are increasing. The growing backlog of cases and the increasing length of time to bring a case to trial or settlement coupled with the rising costs of litigation create a financial burden for the injured victim in a personal injury case. SPMI believes that insurance companies and the defense bar have created impediments to prompt and effective medical treatment. SPMI also believes that the lack of defined and coordinated treatment plans and documentation can diminish the ultimate settlement value of a case. SPMI Business Model SPMI addresses this market by: - Paying for necessary medical treatment; - Advancing funds to pay for other expenses; - Managing and coordinating patient care to support the case settlement value. SPMI Case Investment Strategy SPMI's case investment strategy is to fund, in appropriate instances, physical therapy, diagnostic imaging, pain management services, surgery, and other expenses. SPMI will utilize a proprietary process to evaluate each case and analyze the likelihood and amount of a settlement prior to investing in a case. If SPMI makes a determination to invest in a case, the patient's care may, depending on the nature of the injury and the scope of the treatment, be managed under SPMI's care management program. SPMI will refer the patient to physicians, faculties, and care providers, some of which may be under contract to SPMI. SPMI will either pay for the cost of the care at pre-negotiated rates or purchase the receivable from the care provider at pre-negotiated rates depending on the nature of the service. Prior to rendering medical services, SPMI will obtain letters of protection from the attorney. A letter of protection obligates the attorney to pay for medical services provided by SPMI, from the settlement proceeds in a case. If SPMI will make advances to an accident victim, SPMI will contract directly with personal injury accident victim and would obtain a partial, non-recourse, interest in and to any future settlement or judgment related to the pending claim and/or lawsuit. SPMI is paid when the case settles, and is exposed to the risk of non-payment. SPMI expects that some cases will not be favorably determined for the accident victim, with the result that SPMI will suffer a loss of the amounts invested in the case, however, SPMI believes that overall, the number of cases favorably determined will offset the number of cases that are not favorably determined and produce acceptable returns for SPMI and its shareholders. SPMI Care Management Strategy SPMI's care management program was developed by Dr. William Donovan. SPMI's care management program generally begins with physical therapy. If there is no improvement in patient condition following sufficient amounts of physical therapy, the patient is referred for pain management therapy and diagnostic imaging, and if medically necessary, surgery. SPMI believes that its care management program improves the medical outcomes for injured victims by providing timely, medically necessary, treatment of injuries and improves the settlement value of the injured victim's case by completing required medical treatment prior to settlement and providing clear and consistent medical records. Marketing SPMI will primarily rely on patient referrals from plaintiff personal injury attorneys. SPMI intends to target plaintiff personal injury attorneys in larger and midsize metropolitan areas located in states that are considered 'plaintiff' friendly. SPMI will indentify specific plaintiff personal injury attorneys with large amounts of activity and market SPMI's services directly to these plaintiff personal injury attorneys. SPMI believes that its services and attorney support will be favorably received and result in referrals numbers of injury patients that will be sufficient to execute its business plan. SPMI intends to be operational in at least ten cities by September 2011.
