ATLANTA, Aug 19, 2008 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- PILLQ | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- MedAvant Healthcare Solutions (MedAvant) (Nasdaq:PILLQ), a leader in healthcare technology and transaction services, today announced that it won final approval from the United States Bankruptcy Court in its chapter 11 case in Delaware for its $2.9 million debtor-in-possession financing facility from its senior lender Laurus Master Fund. The Court also approved a variety of other pending motions designed by the Company to maximize its economic performance and the prospects for competitive bidding at the auction scheduled for September 8, 2008, and enhance the prospects of selling the business as a going concern. These rulings continue a string of court victories for the Company as it continues along its reorganization path toward a September auction while continuing its normal operations for customers.

"We are especially pleased that our business and sales process remain on track," said Peter Fleming, MedAvant's interim Chief Executive Officer. The Company's principal bankruptcy counsel, Michael P. Richman of Foley & Lardner LLP told the Court that a number of potential bidders were conducting active diligence and that the Company had high hopes of competitive bidding at the September 8 auction. Richman also told the Court that the Company was achieving revenues better than expected and projected.

The financing approved today by the Court assures that the Company can continue to operate in the ordinary course of business during its chapter 11 case. As previously announced, an auction for the Company will take place on September 8, 2008 at the Wilmington, Delaware offices of the Company's Delaware bankruptcy counsel, Young, Conaway, Stargatt & Taylor, beginning at 10 a.m. Under the schedule approved on August 6, 2008 by the Court, any bids from competing bidders will have to be submitted first in writing on or before September 5, 2008. The Company filed for chapter 11 protection on July 23 in order to address its debt burdens through a sale and restructuring process.

The Company is represented in the bankruptcy case by Michael P. Richman of Foley & Lardner LLP and Michael Nestor of Young, Conaway, Stargatt & Taylor.
