   POCKETSCRIPT ENABLES PHYSICIANS TO EXECUTE SECURE ELECTRONIC PRESCRIPTIONS
                    USING THEIR BLACKBERRY WIRELESS HANDHELDS

     Medix Resources and PocketScript Form Alliance With Research In Motion

New York, NY -- Medix  Resources,  Inc. [AMEX:  MXR] today announced an alliance
with  PocketScript  and Research In Motion (RIM)  [NASDAQ:  RIMM;  TSX:  RIM] to
enable  physicians  to  execute  secure  electronic  prescriptions  using  their
BlackBerry Wireless Handhelds(TM). This announcement follows the news that Medix
and PocketScript have entered into a definitive  agreement providing for Medix's
acquisition of PocketScript.

PocketScript  and RIM have  collaborated  to  extend  PocketScript's  electronic
prescribing  point-of-care   technologies  so  that  they  can  be  utilized  on
Java-based  BlackBerryTM  handhelds.  Medix provides  Internet-based  healthcare
communication, data integration, and transaction processing software through its
Cymedix(R)product line.

"Our  ability  to  deliver a single  integrated  solution  to the  physician  is
significant.  With the  BlackBerry  wireless  platform,  we enable the physician
access to patient information irrespective of location. This frees the physician
from  having  to  carry a  pager,  cell  phone  and  PDA,  while  simultaneously
increasing  their  productivity,"  stated  Stephen  Burns,  President  & CEO  of
PocketScript.

"I don't think it should be underestimated just how significant this development
is for the  proliferation  of  technologies  for  physicians.  With our  pending
acquisition of PocketScript  and the alliance between RIM and  PocketScript,  we
see an exciting  opportunity to expand Medix's  product  offerings,  all bundled
into this neatly portable platform," stated Darryl Cohen, Medix CEO & President.

connected with secure,  wireless access to email, corporate data, phone, web and
organizer features. With BlackBerry,  mobile professionals get effortless access
to  their  important  information  and  communications  while on the road and IT
departments get centralized administration in a secure solution. BlackBerry is a
totally  integrated  package  that  includes  hardware,  software  and  service,
providing a complete end-to-end solution.
