SUMMARY
This Prospectus covers the offering and sale of up to 496,250 shares of our
common stock to the public by certain selling shareholders listed under the
heading "Selling Shareholders" further back in this Prospectus. As of June 25,
2002, we had 62,923,624 shares of our common stock outstanding, and
approximately 29,676,164 shares were issuable upon the exercise of outstanding
options, warrants or other rights, and the conversion of outstanding preferred
stock.
We are developing software products for Internet-based communications and
information management by medical service providers. We have no revenue from
operations and are funding the development of our software products through the
sales of our securities. We have granted a security interest in all of our
intellectual property assets to secure a financing. See "The Company-Recent
Developments" and "Risk Factors."
Because of our continuing losses, and the lack of a certain source of
capital to fund our development of software products, our independent
accountants included a "going concern" exception in their audit report on our
audited financial statements for the year 2001. The "going concern" exception
signifies that significant questions exist about our ability to continue in
business. See "Risk Factors."
Currently, we are funding our development and deployment activities through
an equity line of credit financing, which is not an assured source of funds. The
equity line of credit is provided by Cornell Capital Partners, L.P. and Dutchess
Private Equities Fund, L.P. (the "providers"), which jointly provide the
facility under a single agreement. The agreement provides that we may draw down
up to $10,000,000 over its two-year term, ending June 12, 2003, subject to the
conditions for the draws being satisfied, which can not be assured. We issue
shares of our common stock to the providers of such facility in connection with
such draws. The shares issued are registered so that they can be sold to the
public immediately upon issuance. We have made 17 draws on the equity line of
credit since August of 2001. As of June 18, 2002, we had received $2,681,099 in
advances, from which offering expenses of $198,511 were paid, and had issued to
the providers 4,703,237 shares of our common stock relating to the advances. An
additional 542,847 shares have been issued to affiliates of the providers as
fees for arranging the equity line facility. Currently, 4,796,763 shares are
registered for sale by the providers in connection with future draws. The shares
issued pursuant to the equity line advances to date have been priced from $0.41
to $0.77 per share. See "Risk Factors" and "Equity Line Financing."
Our principal executive office is located at 420 Lexington Avenue, Suite
1830, New York, NY 10170, and its telephone number is (212) 697-2509. Our
principal administrative office is at 7100 East Belleview Ave., Greenwood
Village, CO 80111, and its telephone number is (303) 741-2045.
RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock:
o has a high degree of risk;
o is highly speculative;
o should only be considered by those persons or entities who can afford to
lose their entire investment.
In addition to the other information contained in this Prospectus, the
following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating our business
and an investment in our shares. The order in which the following risk factors
are presented does not indicate the relative magnitude of the risks described.
Our continuing losses endanger our viability and have caused our
accountants to issue a "going concern" exception in their annual audit report.
We reported net losses of ($10,636,000), ($5,415,000) and ($4,847,000) for
the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and a net loss
of ($1,677,000) for the quarter ending March 31, 2002. At March 31, 2002, we had
an accumulated deficit of ($35,737,000) and a negative working capital of
($1,396,000). Our Cymedix(R)products are still in the testing and deployment
stage and have not generated any significant revenue to date. We are funding our
operations through the sale of our securities. Our independent accountants have
included a "going concern" exception in their audit reports on our audited 2000
and 2001 financial statements. See our Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2001.
Our need for additional financing is acute and failure to obtain it could
lead to the financial failure of our company.
We expect to continue to experience losses, in the near term, until such
time as our Cymedix(R)software products can be successfully deployed with
customers and produce revenue. The continuing development, marketing and
deployment of the Cymedix software products will depend upon our ability to
obtain additional financing. Our Cymedix(R)products are still in the testing and
deployment stage and have not generated any significant revenue to date. We are
funding our operations through the sale of our securities. There can be no
assurance that additional investments or financings will be available to us as
needed to support the development and deployment of Cymedix products. Failure to
obtain such capital on a timely basis could result in lost business
opportunities, the sale of the Cymedix business at a distressed price or the
financial failure of our company. See "The Company-Recent Developments."
Medix has frequent cash flow problems that often cause us to be delinquent
in making payments to our vendors and other creditors, which may cause damage to
our business relationships and cause us to incur additional expenses in the
payment of late charges and penalties.
During 2001, from time to time, its lack of cash flow caused Medix to delay
payment of its obligations as they came due in the ordinary of its business. In
some cases, Medix was delinquent in making payments by the legally required due
dates. At its four office locations, Medix had 48 monthly payments due in the
aggregate during 2001. 31 of those payments were late. 23 of those payments were
paid within 30 days of their due date, and 8 of those payments were between 31
and 60 days late. All payments plus any required penalties were ultimately paid
in full during 2001. Medix had 33 Federal withholding and other payment due
dates. Of those, 17 due dates were missed. The resulting delinquencies ranged
from 1 to 58 days, before the required payments were made. Medix pays the
resulting penalties as they are billed. Medix had state withholding obligations
in five states, Colorado, California, Georgia, New Jersey and New York. Medix
was late in making 45 of 97 withholding payments in those five states. The
length of these delinquencies ranged from 3 to 60 days, before the required
payments were made. Medix pays the resulting penalties as they are billed. Medix
was late in making its deposits of its employees' 401(k) contributions 21 of 26
times during 2001. The length of these delinquencies ranged from 10 to 60 days.
All of the above late payments were made before the end of 2001.
We have granted a security interest in all of our intellectual property
assets to secure a financing, which means if we default in our obligations to
the lender, we may loss these assets in the foreclosure process.
The use of secured borrowings increases the risk of loss of the assets used
to secure the borrowing. If an event of default occurs under the security
agreement, the lender will be able to foreclose on the assets used to secure the
borrowing and sell those assets to the highest bidder. In addition, it is
generally believed that foreclosure sales, which are "distress sales", will not
maximize the proceeds that are paid for the assets being sold. The loan we
entered into is secured by the grant of a security interest in all Medix's
intellectual property, including its patent, copyrights and trademarks. While
Medix can cure a payment default by the forced conversion of the loan into its
common stock, a bankruptcy or similar event of default will trigger the
foreclosure provision of the security agreement. See "The Company-Recent
Developments."
We are a development stage company, which means our products and services
have not yet proved themselves commercially viable and therefore our future is
uncertain.
o We develop software for Internet-based communications and information
management for medical service providers, through our wholly owned
subsidiary, Cymedix Lynx Corporation. Our Cymedix(R)products are still in
the testing and deployment stage and have not generated any significant
revenue to date. We are funding our operations through the sale of our
securities. Our ability to continue to sell our securities cannot be
assured.
o We are still in the process of gaining experience in marketing software
products, providing software support services, evaluating demand for
products, financing a software business and dealing with government
regulation of software products. While we are putting together a team of
experienced executives, they have come from different backgrounds and may
require some time to develop an efficient operating structure and corporate
culture for our company. We believe our structure of multiple offices
serves our customers well, but it does present an additional challenge in
building our corporate culture and operating structure.
We rely on healthcare professionals for the quality of the information that
is transmitted through our interconnectivity systems, and we may not be paid for
our services by third-party payors if that quality does not meet certain
standards.
The success of our products and services in generating revenue may be
subject to the quality and completeness of the data that is generated and stored
by the physician or other healthcare professional and entered into our
interconnectivity systems, including the failure to input appropriate or
accurate information. Failure or unwillingness by the healthcare professional to
accommodate the required information quality may result in the payor refusing to
pay Medix for its services.
Our market is rapidly changing and the introduction of software services
and products into that market has been slow, which may cause us to be unable to
develop a profitable market for our services and products.
o As a developer of software products, we will be required to anticipate and
adapt to evolving industry standards and new technological developments.
The market for our software products is characterized by continued and
rapid technological advances in both hardware and software development,
requiring ongoing expenditures for research and development, and timely
introduction of new products and enhancements to existing products. The
establishment of standards is largely a function of user acceptance.
Therefore, such standards are subject to change. Our future success, if
any, will depend in part upon our ability to enhance existing products, to
respond effectively to technology changes, and to introduce new products
and technologies that are functional and meet the evolving needs of our
clients in the healthcare information systems market.
o The introduction of software products in our market has been slow due to
the large number of small practitioners who are resistant to change and the
costs associated with change, particularly in a period of rising pressure
to reduce costs in the market. We are currently devoting significant
resources toward the development of products. There can be no assurance
that we will successfully complete the development of these products in a
timely fashion or that our current or future products will satisfy the
needs of the healthcare information systems market. Further, there can be
no assurance that products or technologies developed by others will not
adversely affect our competitive position or render our products or
technologies noncompetitive or obsolete.
As a provider of medical software products and services, we may become
liable for product liability claims beyond the levels of our insurance that
could have a materially adverse impact on our financial condition.
Certain of our products provide applications that relate to patient medical
histories and treatment plans. Any failure by our products to provide accurate,
secure and timely information could result in product liability claims against
us by our clients or their affiliates or patients. We maintain insurance that we
believe currently is adequate to protect against claims associated with the use
of our products, but there can be no assurance that our insurance coverage would
adequately cover any claim asserted against us. The limits of that coverage are
$2,000,000 in the aggregate and $1,000,000 per occurrence. A successful claim
brought against us in excess of our insurance coverage could have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or business.
Even unsuccessful claims could result in the expenditure of funds in litigation,
as well as diversion of management time and resources.
Our industry, the healthcare industry, continually experiences rapid change
and uncertainty that could result in issues for our business planning or
operations that could severely impact on our ability to become profitable.
The healthcare and medical services industry in the United States is in a
period of rapid change and uncertainty. Governmental programs have been
proposed, and some adopted, from time to time, to reform various aspects of the
U.S. healthcare delivery system. Some of these programs contain proposals to
increase government involvement in healthcare, lower reimbursement rates and
otherwise change the operating environment for our customers. Particularly, the
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, and the regulations
that are being promulgated thereunder, are causing the healthcare industry to
change its procedures and incur substantial cost in doing so. Although we expect
these regulations to have the beneficial effect of spurring adoption of our
software products we cannot predict with any certainty what impact, if any,
these and future healthcare reforms might have on our business.
We rely on intellectual property rights, such as patents, copyrights,
trademarks and unprotected propriety technology in our business operations and
to create value in our company, however, protecting intellectual property
frequently requires litigation and close legal monitoring and may adversely
impact our ability to become profitable.
o Our wholly owned subsidiary, Cymedix Lynx Corporation, has been granted
certain patent rights, trademarks and copyrights relating to its software
business. These patents and copyrights have been assigned by our subsidiary
to the parent company, Medix. The patent rights and intellectual property
legal issues for software programs, such as the Cymedix(R)products, are
complex and currently evolving. Since patent applications are secret until
patents are issued, in the United States, or published, in other countries,
we cannot be sure that we are the first to file any patent application. In
addition, there can be no assurance that competitors, many of which have
far greater resources than we do, will not apply for and obtain patents
that will interfere with our ability to develop or market product ideas
that we have originated. Further, the laws of certain foreign countries do
not provide the protection to intellectual property that is provided in the
United States, and may limit our ability to market our products overseas.
While we have no prospects for marketing or operations in foreign countries
at this time, future opportunities for growth in foreign markets, for that
reason, may be limited. We cannot give any assurance that the scope of the
rights that we have been granted are broad enough to fully protect our
Cymedix software from infringement.
o Litigation or regulatory proceedings may be necessary to protect our
intellectual property rights, such as the scope of our patent. In fact, the
computer software industry in general is characterized by substantial
litigation. Such litigation and regulatory proceedings are very expensive
and could be a significant drain on our resources and divert resources from
product development. There is no assurance that we will have the financial
resources to defend our patent rights or other intellectual property from
infringement or claims of invalidity. We have been notified by a party that
it believes our pharmacy product may infringe on patents that it holds. We
have retained patent counsel who has made a preliminary investigation and
determined that our product does not infringe on the identified patents. At
this time no legal action has been instituted.
o We also rely upon unprotected proprietary technology and no assurance can
be given that others will not independently develop substantially
equivalent proprietary information and techniques or otherwise gain access
to or disclose our proprietary technology or that we can meaningfully
protect our rights in such unpatented proprietary technology. We will use
our best efforts to protect such information and techniques, however, no
assurance can be given that such efforts will be successful. The failure to
protect our intellectual property could cause us to lose substantial
revenues and to fail to reach its financial potential over the long term.
Because our business is highly competitive and there are many competitors
who are financially stronger than we are, we are at risk of being outperformed
in staffing, marketing, product development and customer services, which could
severely limit our ability to become profitable.
o eHealth Services. Competition can be expected to emerge from established
healthcare information vendors and established or new Internet related
vendors. The most likely competitors are companies with a focus on clinical
information systems and enterprises with an Internet commerce or electronic
network focus. Many of these competitors will have access to substantially
greater amounts of capital resources than we have access to, for the
financing of technical, manufacturing and marketing efforts. Frequently,
these competitors will have affiliations with major medical product or
software development companies, who may assist in the financing of such
competitor's product development. We will seek to raise capital to develop
Cymedix products in a timely manner, however, so long as our operations
remain underfunded, as they now are, we will be at a competitive
disadvantage.
o Software Development Personnel. The success of the development of our
Cymedix software is dependent to a significant degree on our key management
and technical personnel. We believe that our success will also depend upon
our ability to attract, motivate and retain highly skilled, managerial,
sales and marketing, and technical personnel, including software
programmers and systems architects skilled in the computer languages in
which our Cymedix products operate. Competition for such personnel in the
software and information services industries is intense. The loss of key
personnel, or the inability to hire or retain qualified personnel, could
have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial
condition or business.
We have relied on the private placement exemption to raise substantial
amounts of capital, and could suffer substantial losses if that exemption was
determined not to have been properly relied upon.
We have raised substantial amounts of capital in private placements from
time to time. The securities offered in such private placements were not
registered with the SEC or any state agency in reliance upon exemptions from
such registration requirements. Such exemptions are highly technical in nature
and if we inadvertently failed to comply with the requirements of any of such
exemptive provisions, investors would have the right to rescind their purchase
of our securities or sue for damages. If one or more investors were to
successfully seek such rescission or institute such suit, Medix could face
severe financial demands that could material and adversely affect our financial
position.
The impact of shares of our common stock that may become available for sale
in the future may result in the market price of our stock being depressed.
As of June 25, 2002, we had 62,923,624 shares of common stock outstanding.
As of that date, approximately 29,676,164 shares were issuable upon the exercise
of outstanding options, warrants or other rights, and the conversion of
preferred stock. Most of these shares will be immediately saleable upon exercise
or conversion under registration statements we have filed with the SEC. The
exercise prices of options, warrants or other rights to acquire common stock
presently outstanding range from $0.19 per share to $4.97 per share. During the
respective terms of the outstanding options, warrants, preferred stock and other
outstanding derivative securities, the holders are given the opportunity to
profit from a rise in the market price of the common stock, and the exercise of
any options, warrants or other rights may dilute the book value per share of the
common stock and put downward pressure on the price of the common stock. The
existence of the options, conversion rights, or any outstanding warrants may
adversely affect the terms on which we may obtain additional equity financing.
Moreover, the holders of such securities are likely to exercise their rights to
acquire common stock at a time when we would otherwise be able to obtain capital
on terms more favorable than could be obtained through the exercise or
conversion of such securities. See also the impact of our equity line of credit
financing discussed in the following paragraphs.
Because of dilution to our common stock outstanding from our equity line of
credit, the market price of our stock may be depressed.
o In connection with our equity line of credit financing, we have registered
9,500,000 shares with the SEC for sale by the providers of the financing,
of which 4,796,763 shares remain available for issuance as of June 18,
2002. See "Equity Line Financing."
o The shares are issued to the equity line providers at a floating price
based on a discount to market price of the common stock. As a result, the
lower the stock price around the time the equity line is drawn on, the more
common shares the holder gets.
o To the extent that the equity line providers sells our common stock, the
market price of the common stock may decrease due to the additional shares
in the market. This could allow the providers to receive a greater amount
of the stock in future draws on our equity line of credit, the sale of
which could further depress the stock price.
o The significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock as the
equity line providers receive common stock in connection with draws on our
equity line of credit and then sell material amounts of the stock, could
encourage short sales, which could place further downward pressure on the
price of our common stock.
o The issuance of the common stock in connection with our equity line of
credit may result in substantial dilution to the common stock holdings of
other holders of our common stock.
o Any agreement to sell, or convert debt or equity securities into, common
stock at a future date and at a price based on the then current market
price will provide an incentive to the investor or third parties to sell
the common stock short to decrease the price and increase the number of
shares they may receive in a future purchase, whether directly from us or
in the market. Our equity line of credit is priced at a discount to the
market price at the time of a future draw.
Because of dilution to our common stock outstanding from the conversion feature
of our $1,000,000 convertible promissory note, the market price of our stock may
be depressed.
o The conversion price of our $1,000,000 promissory note may be equal to 80%
of the then-current market value of Medix common stock if Medix is unable
to obtain a written commitment for additional equity investments of the
aggregate of $4,000,000 by the close of business on September 30, 2002. As
a result, the lower the stock price around the time the conversion is made,
the more common shares the holder of the convertible promissory note gets.
See "The Company - Recent Developments."
o The significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock at the
time the conversion price is set, could encourage short sales, which could
place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock.
o The issuance of the common stock in connection with the conversion may
result in substantial dilution to the common stock holdings of other
holders of our common stock.
o Any agreement to sell, or convert debt or equity securities into, common
stock at a future date and at a price based on the then current market
price will provide an incentive to the investor or third parties to sell
the common stock short to decrease the price and increase the number of
shares they may receive in a future purchase, whether directly from us or
in the market. The convertible promissory note may be priced at a discount
to market at the time the conversion price is set, September 30, 2002.
Because of market volatility in our stock price, investors may find that they
have a loss position if emergency sales become necessary.
Historically, our common stock has experienced significant price
fluctuations. This has been caused by one or more of the following factors:
o unfavorable announcements or press releases relating to the technology
sector;
o regulatory, legislative or other developments affecting our company or the
health care industry generally;
o conversion of our preferred stock and convertible debt into common stock at
conversion rates based on current market prices or below of our common
stock and exercise of options and warrants at below current market prices;
o sales by those financing our company through an equity line of credit or
convertible securities which have been registered with the SEC and may be
sold into the public market immediately upon receipt; and
o market conditions specific to technology and Internet companies, the health
care industry and general market conditions.
In addition, in recent years the stock market has experienced significant
price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations, which are often unrelated to
the operating performance of specific companies, have had a substantial effect
on the market price for many health care related technology companies. Factors
such as those cited above, as well as other factors that may be unrelated to our
operating performance may adversely affect the price of our common stock.
The application of the "penny stock" rules to our common stock may depress the
market for our stock.
Trading of our common stock may be subject to the penny stock rules under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, unless an exemption from such
rules is available. Broker-dealers making a market in our common stock will be
required to provide disclosure to their customers regarding the risks associated
with our common stock, the suitability for the customer of an investment in our
common stock, the duties of the broker-dealer to the customer and information
regarding bid and ask prices for our common stock, and the amount and
description of any compensation the broker-dealer would receive in connection
with a transaction in our common stock. The application of these rules may
result in fewer market makers making a market of our common stock and further
restrict the liquidity of our common stock.
We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the
foreseeable future.
We have not had earnings, but if earnings were available, it is our general
policy to retain any earnings for use in our operation. Therefore, we do not
anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable
future. Any payment of cash dividends on our common stock in the future will be
dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, current and
anticipated cash requirements, plans for expansion, as well as other factors
that the Board of Directors deems relevant. We anticipate that our future
financing agreements will prohibit the payment of common stock dividends without
the prior written consent of those providers.

THE COMPANY
General
Medix Resources, Inc., a Colorado corporation, sold its supplemental
staffing business, which operated under the trade names "National Care
Resources" and "TherAmerica" on February 19, 2000, and now principally develops
software for Internet-based communications and information management for
medical service providers, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cymedix Lynx
Corporation.
We acquired the Cymedix business in January of 1998. Cymedix has developed
Internet-based communications and information management product, which we began
marketing to medical professionals in select markets nationwide. Growth of the
medical information management marketplace is being driven by the need to share
significant amounts of clinical and patient information between physicians,
their outpatient service providers, hospitals, insurance companies and managed
care organizations. This market is one of the fastest-growing sectors in
healthcare today, commanding a projected two-thirds of health care capital
investments. The Cymedix(R)software contains patented elements that can be used
to develop secure medical communications products that make use of the Internet.
Using the Cymedix software, medical professionals can order, prescribe and
access medical information from participating insurance companies and managed
care organizations, as well as from any participating outpatient service
provider, such as a laboratory, radiology center, pharmacy or hospital. We will
provide the software at minimal charges to physicians and clinics, and will
collect user fees whenever these products are used to provide services on the
Internet. The products' relational database technology will provide physicians
with a permanent, ongoing record of each patient's name, address, insurance or
managed care affiliation, referral status, medical history, personalized notes
and an audit trail of past encounters. Physicians will be able to electronically
order medical procedures, receive and store test results, check patient
eligibility, make medical referrals, request authorizations, and report
financial and encounter information in a cost-effective, secure and timely
manner.
Our principal executive office is located at The Graybar Building, 420
Lexington Ave., Suite 1830 New York, NY 10170, and its telephone number is (212)
697-2509. Our principal administrative office is at 7100 East Belleview Ave.,
Greenwood Village, CO 80111, and its telephone number is (303) 741-2045. We also
have offices in California and Georgia.
Recent Developments
The introduction of our next generation of proprietary, point-of-care
products, Cymedix(R)III, is proceeding with our six active sponsors. Our
improved suite of software products is based upon a robust and device-neutral
architecture that leverages proven workstation, handheld and wireless
technologies and is being installed and tested for Pharmacy, Laboratory and
PlanConnect services. We continue to be in the development and testing phase
with each of our active contracts, and therefore receive no revenue. Revenue
will begin when we reach certain milestones under each contract and we enter the
production phase of the contract. The marketing and development of our Cymedix
suite of software products is our sole business at this time, and a substantial
portion of our net operating loss is due to such efforts. We are funding such
expenses as well as our administrative expenses through the sale of our
securities. We have no significant debt financing available to us.
During 2001, our Automated Design Concepts Division (ADC) ceased operations
in connection with our cost reduction program, which had been brought on by our
inability to raise budgeted capital. It was determined that the business of the
subsidiary was not part of our core business operations and therefore did not
justify our continued financial support. In connection with the termination of
our subsidiaries operations we took a write-off of goodwill in the amount of
$443,000. We also determined that our license of proprietary software from
Zirmed.com had no value to us and had no more than a nominal market value. As a
result, we wrote-off the unamortized value of the related intangible asset,
which was $668,000. We had acquired ADC in early 2000 from an officer and
director of the Company for cash and stock valued at $474,000. He resigned his
positions with us on March 2, 2001.
During 2001, net cash used in operating activities was approximately
$5,397,000. During the year, we raised approximately $5,205,000 from the
exercise of options and warrants, and the issuance of common stock, net of
offering expenses, and debt. Since December 31, 2001 to May 31, 2002, we have
used approximately $2,071,000 in our operating activities, and raised
approximately $3,468,000 from the exercise of options and warrants, and the
issuance of common stock and warrants, net of offering expenses, and debt. We
had approximately $651,000 in cash as of May 31, 2002 with a net working capital
deficit of approximately $856,000. We have been delinquent, from time to time,
in the payment of our current obligations, including payments of withholding and
other tax obligations. We continue in discussions and negotiations with
institutional sources regarding debt and equity financings to fund our
operations and to permit us to remove the "going concern" qualification in our
auditor's report in connection with the audit of our annual financial
statements. There can be no assurance that additional investments or financings
will be available to us as needed. Failure to obtain such capital on a timely
basis could result in lost business opportunities, the sale of the Cymedix
business at a distressed price or our financial failure.
We executed an Amended and Restated Common Stock Purchase Warrant with
WellPoint Pharmacy Management, dated February 18, 2002, to restructure our
obligations to issue warrants to WellPoint. Under that Warrant, we are obligated
to issue up to 7,000,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices of $0.30
per share for 3,000,000, $0.50 per share for 3,000,000 shares and $1.75 per
share for 1,000,000 shares, if various performance related vesting requirements
are satisfied by WellPoint. Currently, WellPoint has satisfied certain of these
requirements giving WellPoint the right to purchase 1,850,000 shares of our
common stock at $0.30 per share have been earned by WellPoint. WellPoint's
rights to purchase our shares under the Warrant expire on September 8, 2004. The
Warrant grants to WellPoint certain registration rights to require us to
register with the SEC the shares issued to WellPoint for resale to the public.
In the Warrant, WellPoint has agreed to restrict sales to the public of these
shares during the first year after they have been issued to 200,000 shares per
month and 100,000 shares in any five trading days. The Warrant contains
anti-dilution provisions providing that the number of shares that may be
purchased by WellPoint under the Warrant my be adjusted in certain
circumstances.
We entered into a secured convertible loan agreement with WellPoint, dated
February 19, 2002, pursuant to which we borrowed $1,000,000 from WellPoint
Health Networks Inc. The loan becomes payable on February 19, 2003, if not
converted into our common stock. The loan earns annual interest at a floating
rate of 300 basis points over prime, as it is adjusted from time to time, which
is also payable at maturity and may be converted into common stock. Conversion
into common stock is at the option of either WellPoint or Medix at a contingent
conversion price. The conversion price will be either (i) at the price at which
additional shares are sold to other private placement investors if Medix obtains
written commitments for at least an additional $4,000,000 of equity by the close
of business on September 30, 2002, from persons not affiliates of WellPoint, and
if such sales are closed by the maturity date of the loan, or (ii) at a price
equal to 80% of the then-current Fair Market Value (as defined below) if Medix
is unable to obtain a written commitment for the additional equity investment by
the close of business on September 30, 2002 or close the sales by the maturity
date. For this purpose, "Fair Market Value" shall be the average closing price
of Medix common stock for the twenty trading days ending on the day prior to the
day of the conversion. The loan is secured by the grant of a security interest
in all Medix's intellectual property, including its patent, copyrights and
trademarks. While Medix can cure a default in the repayment of the loan at the
fixed maturity date by the forced conversion of the loan into its common stock,
a cross default, breach of representation or warranty, and bankruptcy or similar
event of default will trigger the foreclosure provision of the security
agreement.
On May 15, 2002, we completed a private placement of our securities for
$1,381,000. In connection therewith, we are issuing 3,452,500 shares of common
stock and warrants to purchase a equal number of shares of common stock at the
exercise price of $0.50 per share.
EQUITY LINE FINANCING
Agreement
We have entered into an Equity Line of Credit Agreement with Cornell
Capital Partners, L.P. ("Cornell"), and Dutchess Private Equities Fund, L.P.
("Dutchess"), dated as of June 12, 2001. Under the agreement, the two providers
have committed to advance to us funds in an amount of up to $10,000,000, as
requested by us, over a 24-month period in return for common stock issued by us
to the providers. As of June 18, 2002, we had received $2,681,099 in advances,
from which offering expenses of $198,511 were paid, under the financing, and had
issued to the providers 4,703,237 shares of our common stock relating to the
advances and an additional 542,847 shares to their affiliates as fees for
arranging the equity line facility. The shares issued pursuant to the equity
line advances to date have been priced from $0.41 to $0.77 per share.
The amount that may be advanced at any time under the equity line is
limited as follows (which conditions may be waived by the providers):
o There must be thirteen stock market trading days between any two of our
requests for advances.
o We can only request an advance if the volume weighted average price of the
common stock, as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the day before our request,
is equal to or greater than the volume weighted average price as reported
by Bloomberg L.P. for the 22 trading days before we make a request.
o We will not be able to receive an advance amount that is greater than 175%
of the average daily volume of our common stock over the 40 trading days
prior to our advance request multiplied by the purchase price (calculated
as provided in the next sentence).
The purchase price of our common stock issued in each advance will be equal
to 91% of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices during the 22
trading days before we make a request for an advance.
Registration Rights
We have agreed to maintain an effective registration statement for the sale
of the shares issued to the providers of our equity line financing, as described
above. If, at any time, the number of shares available under a registration
statement is insufficient to cover all securities issued to the providers, we
have agreed to use our best efforts to cause an amendment or new registration
statement containing those shares to be declared effective. Our agreement with
the providers of our equity line financing contains mutual indemnities against
loses, costs and expenses arising out of the violation of by the other party of
state and Federal securities laws. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted under such
agreement, we have been informed that in the opinion of the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. Our agreements as to
registration rights are only with the providers of our equity line financing and
we have no obligations to assist or indemnify any other holder of the shares
sold by them or to any underwriter designated by such holders.
Currently, 4,796,763 shares are registered for sale by the providers in
connection with future draws. If additional shares are to be issued under the
equity line of credit, they would have to be registered with the SEC and listed
on the AMEX. Listing of additional shares on the AMEX would require a vote of
our shareholders under the AMEX rules the limit the number of shares that can be
issued in below market transactions.
Compensation
We are selling our shares to the providers of our equity line financing at
a 9% discount from the market price as described above. Yorkville Advisors'
Management, LLC, an affiliate of Cornell, has been and will be paid by us 2.31%
of each amount advanced to us under the equity line financing. Dutchess Advisors
Limited, an affiliate of Dutchess, has been and will be paid by us 4.69% of each
amount advanced to us under the equity line financing. Through June 18, 2002, we
have paid an aggregate of $175,511 in such fees. Furthermore, for their
assistance in arranging our equity line facility, we have issued to Yorkville
Advisors and Dutchess Advisors 179,140 shares and 363,707 shares, respectively,
of our common stock, which was also registered for sale under the
above-described registration statement. In addition, through June 18, 2002, we
have paid $15,000, in the aggregate, to counsels to Cornell and Dutchess, and
paid $8,000 for escrow fees and other expenses in connection with this
transaction.
Potential Dilution
We have made 17 draws under the equity line since August 15, 2001, received
$2,681,099 in advances and issued 4,703,237 shares of common stock to the equity
line providers. The issue price of that stock has been between $0.41 and $0.77
during a period when the market prices on the draw dates has ranged from $0.52
to $0.94.
The following table is intended to indicate the future impact of our equity
line on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding, assuming the draw
down of all the remaining availability under the equity line, all at one time,
for hypothetical variations in the price of our common stock. The numbers in the
table are hypothetical and it is highly unlikely that we will draw down all of
the amount available under the equity line at one time. As of June 18, 2002, the
closing price of our common stock on the AMEX was $0.38 per share, and the
number of shares of our common stock outstanding was 62,923,624 shares.
Under our equity line of credit, the purchase price of our common stock
issued to the equity line providers is contractually set at 91% of the average
of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices ("VWAPs") during the 22
trading days before a draw is made. On June 18, 2002, the average of the three
lowest VWAPs for the prior 22-trading day period was $0.283. On that date, we
had $7,318,901 available to be drawn down under the equity line. In the
following table we present the number of shares that could be issued, and the
issue price thereof, in six different hypothetical situations, if the average of
the three lowest VWAPs for the pricing of the shares to be issued in an equity
line draw down were 25%, 50% and 75% above and below that average on June 18,
2002.

USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds from the sale of shares will be received by the selling
shareholders. Medix will not receive any of the proceeds from any sale of the
shares by the selling shareholders. However, Medix will receive the proceeds
from the advances under the equity line of credit and the exercise of warrants
to purchase the shares to be sold hereunder. If all these warrants are
exercised, Medix would receive proceeds of $25,000. Such proceeds will be used
as working capital.

Relationship Between Medix and the Selling Shareholders
The selling shareholders have or will acquire the shares of common stock
indicated above in one of the following ways: (i) upon advancing funds to the
Company under a equity line financing, (ii) in payment of certain of the
Company's fee obligations in connection with the equity line financing, and
(iii) upon the exercise of warrants issued in settlement of litigation. None of
the persons listed above are affiliates or controlled by affiliates of the
Company. We have a separate contractual obligation to file this registration
with each of the selling shareholders, which was part of the inducement for them
to invest in the Company.
Cornell Capital Partners, L.P. and Dutchess Private Equities Fund, L.P.,
who are the providers of the equity line financing, are statutory underwriters
under Section 2a(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The principals

general partner, and Mark Angelo, Joseph Donohue, Robert Ferrell, Matthew
Beckman and Meir Levin. The principals of Dutchess Private Equities Fund, L.P.
are Dutchess Capital Management LLC, its general partner, and Michael A.
Novielli and Douglas H. Leighton, managing members and principal owners of the
general partner.
The other selling shareholders received their warrants to purchase shares
as a result of the settlement of a litigation against us, Guli R. Rajani v.
Medix Resources, Inc. Mr. Rajani was issued warrants to purchase 137,500 shares
of our common stock at the exercise price of $0.50 per share. Mr. Rajani has
directed a portion of the warrants he received in the settlement to his wife and
son and to the counsel who represented him in his litigation against us. The
remaining shares covered by Mr. Rajani's settlement warrants are being
registered in another registration statement.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Our authorized capital consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par
value $.001 per share, and 2,500,000 shares of preferred stock. As of June 25,
2002, we had outstanding 62,923,624 shares of common stock, 1 share of 1996
Preferred Stock, 50 shares of 1999 Series B Preferred Stock and 100 shares of
1999 Series C Preferred Stock. As of such date, our common stock was held of
record by approximately 400 persons and beneficially owned by approximately
9,000 persons.
Common Stock
Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote at all meetings of
shareholders. Shareholders are not permitted to cumulate votes in the election
of directors. Currently, the Board of Directors consists of six directors, who
serve for staggered terms of three years, with at least two directors elected at
every annual meeting. All shares of common stock are equal to each other with
respect to liquidation rights and dividend rights. There are no preemptive
rights to purchase any additional common stock. In the event of liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of Medix, holders of the common stock will be entitled
to receive on a pro rata basis all assets of Medix remaining after satisfaction
of all liabilities and preferences of the outstanding preferred stock. The
outstanding shares of common stock and the shares of common stock issuable upon
conversion or exercise of derivative securities are or will be, as the case may
be, duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
We have retained Computershare Trust Company, Inc., 350 Indiana Street,
Suite 800, Golden, Colorado 80401, as Transfer Agent and Registrar, for the our
common stock, at telephone number (303) 262-0600.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling shareholders and any of their pledgees, donees, assignees and
successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares
of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the
shares are traded. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling
shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling
shares:
o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits purchasers;
o block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as
agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to
facilitate the transaction;
o purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer
for its account;
o an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
exchange;
o privately negotiated transactions;
o short sales;
o broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified
number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
o a combination of any such methods of sale; and
o any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The selling shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
The selling shareholders may also engage in short sales against the box,
puts and calls and other transactions in securities of the Company or
derivatives of Company securities and may sell or deliver shares in connection
with these trades. The selling shareholders may pledge their shares to their
brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling
shareholder defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer
and sell the pledged shares. The selling shareholders have advised the Company
that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements
with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their shares other
than ordinary course brokerage arrangements, nor is there an underwriter or
coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of shares by the
selling shareholders.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other
brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions
or discounts from the selling shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as
agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be
negotiated. The selling shareholders do not expect these commissions and
discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
Cornell Capital Partners, L.P. and Dutchess Private Equities Fund, L.P.,
and their affiliates, Yorkville Advisors Management LLC and Dutchess Advisors
Limited, are each an "underwriter" under Section 2a(11) of the Securities Act of
1933, in connection with the resale of common stock under the Equity Line of
Credit Agreement. Cornell Capital Partners, L.P. and Dutchess Private Equities
Fund, L.P. will pay us 91% of the average of the 3 lowest closing bid price of
our common stock for the 22 days immediately preceding the advance date. The
discount on the purchase of the common stock to be received by them will be an
underwriting discount. We retained Yorkville Advisors Management, LLC and
Dutchess Advisors Limited as our consultants in connection with the equity line
of credit financing. See "Equity Line of Credit."
Other selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are
involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any
commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the
registration of the shares, including fees and disbursements of counsel to
certain of the selling shareholders. Otherwise, all discounts, commissions or
fees incurred in connection with the sale of the common stock offered hereby
will be paid by the selling shareholders. The Company has agreed to indemnify
certain selling shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Upon the Company being notified by a selling shareholder that any material
arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares
through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary
distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this
prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling shareholder and of
the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii)
the price at which such shares were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts
or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such
broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set
out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts
material to the transaction.
In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if
applicable, the shares will be sold in such jurisdictions, if required, only
through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain
states the shares may not be sold unless the Shares have been registered or
qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or
qualification is available and complied with.
The Company has advised the selling shareholders that the anti-manipulative
provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act may apply to their
sales of the shares offered hereby.
INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Article 109 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act generally provides
that Medix may indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against
liabilities in any action, suit or proceeding whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal (a "Proceeding"),
by reason of being or having been a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or
agent of Medix, if such person acted in good faith and reasonably believed that
his conduct, in his official capacity, was in the best interests of Medix (or,
with respect to employee benefit plans, was in the best interests of the
participants of the plan), and in all other cases that his conduct was at least
not opposed to Medix's best interests. In the case of a criminal proceeding, the
director, officer, employee or agent must have had no reasonable cause to
believe that his conduct was unlawful. Under Colorado Law, Medix may not
indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent in connection with a proceeding
by or in the right of Medix if the director is adjudged liable to Medix, or in a
proceeding in which the directors, officer employee or agent is adjudged liable
for an improper personal benefit.
Our Articles of Incorporation provide that we shall indemnify its
directors, and officers, employees and agents to the extent and in the manner
permitted by the provisions of the laws of the State of Colorado, as amended
from time to time, subject to any permissible expansion or limitation of such
indemnification, as may be set forth in any shareholders' or directors'
resolution or by contract.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), may be permitted to directors, officers
or persons controlling Medix pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Medix has
been informed that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.

Item 17. Undertakings.
A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act");
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than
20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in
the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement.
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the
Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) do not apply if
the Registration Statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") by the Registrant pursuant
to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Act,
each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of
such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
B. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant

requirements for filing on Form S-2 and has duly caused this Post-Effective
Amendment to the Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in New York, New York on June 24, 2002.
