We are very happy to have been awarded the title of "Leader of Cooperation". It is a confirmation that we are a trusted and proven partner of the Social Insurance Institution, with which we have been cooperating for over 20 years. The ZUS Comprehensive IT System (KSI ZUS) created within the framework of this cooperation serves over 25 million Poles. It should be emphasized that ZUS has never failed its customers, who always receive their pensions on time. Thanks to KSI, ZUS is also the leader of the state administration in launching electronic services such as eContributions, eFiles or eZLA and in the integration within the social security system at the European level (EESSI). These undoubted successes would not have been possible without the exceptionally good cooperation between ZUS and Asseco, said Sławomir Szmytkowski.

During the ceremony it was emphasized that ZUS had clearly defined plans for the future. It focuses on the further development of modern e-administration to make it easier for citizens to settle their matters and to fully automate the granting and payment of benefits. I hope that our cooperation will contribute to the implementation of these plans, he added.

The development of the hospital IT system will bring benefits to patients, medical personnel and contractors cooperating with the facility and managing the unit.
The beneficiaries will gain access to e-Registration, which will significantly save their time and improve the work of the hospital. The patients will have access to their own account, as well as to catalogued, up-to-date and confirmed information about the scope of medical services. They will also be able to book appointments on their own.
In turn, thanks to the launch of the Medical Information Portal, the medical personnel will gain access to applications such as e-Documentation, e-Interview or e-Consent, which will significantly improve the effectiveness of the hospital employees' operational activities.
The implementation of the e-Contractor module will improve, among others, the handling of medical examination referrals in other units, the management of bookings and will guarantee online access to the results of the examination. Moreover, the Laboratory Information System is currently integrated with other e-Services and will support external contractors in the scope of archiving, verifying and distributing results.

The project, which we have implemented in the Voivodship Hospital Complex in Płock, will allow us to transfer many processes, including registration, medical interview, referrals for examination and medical documentation handling, to the electronic sphere, which will significantly shorten the time of their implementation. In my opinion, the long-term result will be the strengthening of the hospital's potential and its competitiveness in relation to other institutions, as well as the improvement of the quality and availability of medical services, said Jan Butkiewicz, Deputy Director of the Healthcare Division, Asseco Poland.

The implementation was carried out under two projects: "E-health for Mazowsze" and "Development of IT systems in the Voivodship Hospital Complex in Płock E-health 2.0".

The "Golden Hundred" ranking was created with the scientific and research cooperation of the Małopolska Economic Institute and the Podkarpacie branch of the Polish Economic Society. The ranking was held under the patronage of Władysław Ortyl, Marshal of the Podkarpacie Voivodeship and Ewa Leniart, Voivode of the Podkarpacie Voivodeship. It was the 13th edition of the ranking.

Asseco regularly shares profits with its shareholders and for over a decade has been paying out high dividends every year. In total, the Company paid out PLN 26.49 per share, which means that long-term shareholders have received a refund of half of the present value of Asseco Poland's shares (at the end of August).
According to the organizers of the ranking of companies paying dividends, there is a steady increase in the number of companies paying dividends. Such a situation is connected with the development of the domestic economy. Companies are also becoming stronger in terms of capital and can afford to pay out profits in the form of dividends.

Asseco, then known as Comp Rzeszów, had its Warsaw Stock Exchange debut on September 27, 2004. The market capitalization of the company on the debut day was about PLN 420 million. 15 years since that event passed and the value of Asseco on the stock exchange exceeds PLN 4 billion. During this period Asseco became a truly global software producer. Thanks to the implementation of the international expansion strategy, today the company is present in over 50 countries, and its revenues are over 80 times higher than in 2004 and exceed PLN 9 billion. In 2004 Comp Rzeszów employed 275 people. Currently, more than 25 thousand employees worldwide work for Asseco's results on a daily basis.

The success of Asseco is an example of how a stock exchange can support the implementation of a company's development vision and how to effectively conquer the world with the help of a capital market. Functioning as a public company translates positively not only into the development of a company itself, but also has a positive impact on the standards of its operation. Before Asseco debuted on the Warsaw Stock Exchange in 2004, we had only been a mid-sized IT company in Poland. Today we are the sixth-largest software producer in Europe, employing over 25 thousand people in more than 50 countries. It has been possible thanks to a good strategy and intensive work of many people, but also thanks to the fact that a businessman like me had the opportunity to raise capital on the basis of the rules that had been in force for many years on our western competitors' markets. If the Polish capital market had not trusted us, Asseco Poland would not have existed. The stock exchange is conducive to visionaries and it is important that other Polish companies have such an opportunity and want to take advantage of it, said Adam Góral, President of the Management Board of Asseco Poland.

Over the years, Asseco has developed a strong position on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The company is a part of the prestigious WIG30 index, which groups the largest and most liquid companies. Asseco Poland is also the largest company in the WIG-Informatyka sector index. Recently, the company has entered the newly created WIGtech index, which includes companies operating in the area of new technologies. Thanks to the consistent payment of high dividend, the company was qualified to the WIGdiv index. In 2018, Asseco was ranked among 37 Polish companies listed on the developed market indices of the global agency FTSE Russell.

Medical institutions throughout Poland are facing the challenge of implementing electronic medical documentation (EDM) and continuous improvement of the quality of services offered. The Opolskie Voivodeship has just made a big step in building e-Health in its region. The Opole Rehabilitation Center in Korfantów, the Independent Public Healthcare Center ZOZ in Głuchołazy, the Independent Public Healthcare Center in Kędzierzyn-Koźle, the Healthcare Center in Biała,Neurosis Therapy Center in Moszna and the Medical School Complex in Brzeg have signed an agreement with Asseco Poland - the leader among software providers for the health care sector. It includes implementation of the system of electronic medical documentation and increasing the functionality of the existing ones, launching new e-services for patients, as well as modernization of the integrated IT system (HIS), which runs in these institutions.

I am glad that we will be able to implement this project, so important for the whole voivodeship. Informatization of the health care system is conducted primarily with patients in mind and I hope that soon they will feel positive effects of building e-health in the Opolskie region, said Jan Butkiewicz, Director of the Health Care Division at Asseco Poland. An example of an innovative solution that will be implemented is a virtual assistant, thanks to which patients will be able to quickly find a suitable unit and a doctor who will take care of their illness.

The whole investment will take place within the framework of the project "Popularization of the e-services provision within the cooperation network of medical units and educational institution in the Opolskie Voivodeship".
