Note 2 Going concern
The company has an accumulated deficit of $16,961,707 as of September 30, 2010. These accumulated loss conditions have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Although our recent growth has greatly improved cash flows, and we generally meet our obligations on a monthly basis, we, nonetheless need to obtain additional financing to provide working capital for growth, to introduce our new Genstrip product line and to better manage our operations. Management is seeking additional financing, and may also consider a merger or acquisition candidate. We also intend to acquire interests in various business opportunities, which in the opinion of management, will assist in our profitability. Our recent agreements for the exclusive distribution of the Genstrip product line and the success we have had engaging a very large retail concern to market the Genstrip are two such business opportunities. Management believes these efforts will generate sufficient cash flows from future operations to meet our obligations and working capital needs. There is no assurance any additional transactions will occur. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

a)
In 2005, our former CEO determined that it was in the best interests of the company to borrow funds by offering a series of convertible promissory notes to private investors. The principal sum of these notes was $170,000. Pursuant to these notes, we agreed to pay these note holders the principal balance plus accrued interest at an annual rate of 15% maturing in one year from the date of issuance. Our former CEO employed the services of a sales agent and paid this agent certain fees in 2005 and 2006. On March 30, 2010 after a dispute arose, we entered into a debt settlement agreement with the one investor for the payment of his principal balance of $25,000 and accrued interest of $15,938 for a total amount owed of $40,938. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, we issued 300,000 shares of our common stock valued at $34,500 and agreed to pay an additional $15,000 in cash to the investor for a total sum of $49,500. The excess payment of $8,562 was recorded as interest expense. As of September 30, 2010, the remaining principal balance owed to the remaining investors was $145,000 with accrued interest of $100,313.
b)
On May 23, 2006, we entered into a promissory note with Dennis Cantor and Novex International for the principal amount of $255,000. Pursuant to the note we promised to pay Dennis Cantor and Novex International the sum of $255,000 together with interest at a rate of one half of one percent (0.5%) every ten days beginning on May 23, 2006 and running through the maturity date of September 30, 2006. In the case of a default in payment of principal, all overdue amounts under the note shall bear a penalty obligation at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum accruing from the maturity date. On July 1, 2006, we extended the note to July 31, 2006. We have made principal payments of $125,000. As of September 30, 2010, the remaining principal balance was $130,000 and accrued interest totaled $70,938. On April 16, 2010 the note holder and the company agreed to a note conversion whereby we issued 1,939,543 shares of our common stock valued at $193,955 for full payment of the principal balance and accrued interest of $200,938.

c)
On July 17, 2006, we entered into a convertible loan payment agreement with Wayne G. Knapp wherein Mr. Knapp agreed to loan the Company the sum of $200,000. The loan is for 120 days. On October 17, 2006, we renewed the note. On January 17, 2007, the parties verbally agreed to a renewal that expires on May 16, 2007. The note accrues monthly interest at a rate of 1.50% and the interest is payable quarterly in cash. The total amount owing pursuant to the agreement, was convertible at the option of Mr. Knapp at any time from July 17, 2006 until November 30, 2006, at the strike price equal to $0.32 per share or 90% of the final bid price of our common stock on the day prior to conversion with a floor price of $0.10 per share. We renewed Mr. Knapps conversion option on January 17, 2007. In addition, we issued Mr. Knapp a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of our common stock at $0.32 per share through December 31, 2009. Mr. Knapp exercised his option on March 30, 2007. On March 8, 2010, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release with Mr. Knapp. Pursuant to the agreement we issued 2,900,000 shares of our common stock valued at $319,000 as full settlement of this debt. As of September 30, 2010, we have recorded $13,000 in debt forgiveness representing the difference between the fair value of shares issued and the principal amount owed plus accrued interest of $332,000.

d)
In March 2008, we entered into a Convertible Promissory Note Purchase Agreement with Cragmont Capital, LLC (Cragmont) wherein Cragmont agreed to loan the Company an aggregate sum of $250,000. A single loan was made for $75,000. In January 2009 Cragmont contended the loan was for one year, maturing on February 28, 2009. The total amount owing pursuant to the agreement, was convertible at the option of the lender, at a strike price equal to $0.015 per share.
Further, we agreed subject to certain conditions to issue 100 warrants with a strike price of $0.03 expiring on December 31, 2010 for every dollar loaned by Cragmont. The warrant transaction was conditioned upon Cragmont purchasing the warrant at closing. No agreement was ever reached with Cragmont as to the purchase price for the warrants, and they were never purchased by Cragmont at the closing. During the year ended December 31, 2008, we terminated our relationship with Cragmont. On March 10, 2010, we issued payment in the amount of $75,000 to Cragmont, representing the return of partial funding pursuant to our rescission of the March 1, 2008 agreement. On August 20, 2010, we entered into a full and final settlement agreement with Cragmont whereby agreeing to accept a request for conversion of the principal portion of the original note pursuant to the March 2008 agreement in addition to forgoing the return of the $75,000 payment made by us in March 2010. In exchange, Cragmont has agreed to release all claims to 7,500,000 warrants previously in dispute.

On March 1, 2008, pursuant to a Note and Purchase Agreement with Cragmont Capital, LLC (Cragmont) the company offered Cragmont the opportunity to purchase a warrant, which would have enabled Cragmont the right to purchase up to 7,500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.03 per share in exchange for cash. Cragmont did not purchase the warrant at the closing, which the Agreement required that it do, and therefore, the warrant remained unissued.

In May of 2008, we severed our relationship with Cragmont as a result of their inability to meet the parallel funding commitments they had agreed to. InstaCare has rescinded its agreement with Cragmont based on a failure to perform as agreed. The rescission is evidenced in part by the full return of the partial funding in the amount of $75,000.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Overview of Current Operations
instaCare Corp., through its subsidiary companies, is a nationwide prescription and non-prescription diagnostics and home testing products distributor. Diagnostic test kits and at-home patient testing products are regulated by the U.S. FDA similarly to pharmaceuticals, but for the most part do not require a doctors prescription for anything other than insurance benefit compliance. Our subsidiaries, Pharma Tech Solutions, Inc., Pharmtech Direct Corp. and PDA Services, Inc. operate individually in several separate healthcare products distribution channels. We distribute brand name prescription and non-prescription diagnostics products as well as several lines of ostomy, wound care and post-surgery medical products. The company directs its marketing efforts to ambulatory and semi-ambulatory older Americans afflicted with diabetes and complications caused by diabetes and old age. The company, originally a medical IT company with proprietary IT product lines, acquired its medical products distribution business in late 2004 through a merger with Phoenix, Arizona based CareGeneration, Inc. We have grown the original CareGeneration business through subsequent acquisitions of private businesses and strategic partnerships with larger private pharmacies. We intend to acquire additional private companies in this industry to achieve our goal of becoming a full service value added DME provider of wide range of medical products and services.
In March 2010 we agreed to assist in a process that would bring various alternative at-home patient testing products to the U.S. market, thereby employing our growing distribution muscle to alternative diagnostic products that would service an almost $10 billion diabetes testing market, a market currently dominated by products manufactured and sold by Johnson and Johnson, Abbott Diagnostics, Roche Diagnostics and Bayer Healthcare. The first of these products has been given the trade name Genstrip. Genstrip will compete in a market currently dominated by Johnson and Johnson. In 2010 it is estimated that this market will exceed $10 billion. The company believes its products offer a substantial cost advantage and is basing its value proposition for Genstrip on this advantage.
We have concluded three party agreements that grant the companys Pharma Tech Solutions, Inc. subsidiary a five year term for the exclusive distribution of these diabetes diagnostic products. We have begun pre-sales activities, accepting conditional orders for the sale of Genstrip. These pre-sales orders have surpassed our expectations. We have also entered agreement with a major U.S. retail chain of stores for the sale of Genstrip in retail markets and for their implementation, through their captive pharmacies, to Medicare Part D channels. We are currently in the process of implementing this agreement. The company has also been approached by several other retail chain stores. We anticipate several other large retailers to embrace Genstrip.
We also offer information technology solutions in several medical care market channels by providing physicians with information at the point of care. Our products, unlike those from many other medical information companies, make use of smart cell phones such as the Apple iPhone, the Palm Pre, the Google Droid and a wide selection of Microsoft Windows based smart phones and operate in either in a wireless or wired mode, which allow physicians to carry, access and update their patients histories, also known as electronic medical records or EMR, medication data, and best care guidelines - all at the point of care, or from any other location the physician may be located. In addition, the companys products employ proprietary mathematical game theory features adapted by the company for medical use that allow acceptance of diagnoses and treatment protocols where the medical information may have originated from one or several locations and one time or several times.
We have entered into nine partnerships with free-standing pharmacies in the states of New York, Maryland, New Jersey and Arizona. We believe that we will be able to provide value added services to our customers by cost reductions brought about by increased efficiencies and cross marketing opportunities.
We multiple inquiries from companies interested in partnering with the company for the implementation of its cell phone centric technologies MD@Hand and MD@Work. The interested companies range from clinical testing laboratories, service organizations owned or aligned with medical health insurers, a medical content provider and legacy healthcare systems companies. We are currently evaluating various proposals. We have chosen one of these companies as a proposed partner and are in wide ranging discussions. We plan at least one additional proposed partnership.
From April 1, 2005 through November 15, 2009, we focused our business attention toward providing prescription and non-prescription diagnostics, at-home testing and medical/surgical products through several medical distribution channels. Our secondary business objective has been to provide medical information technology (IT) for use with Internet-based communication, and network software systems and applications, that originally resided and functioned through Microsoft Windows CE-Based PDAs (Personal Data Assistants), which are popular and commonly available from most major computer brand name companies such as Sony, Dell, IBM and Palm -to the medical fields and the lodging industries. In May 2009, the company began the port of its technologies and software from the PDA based products to late generation smart cell phones. This re-development was completed November 12, 2009. Subsequently the company filed patent applications in February 2010 to secure its latest product developments.

The companys business on a day-to-day basis includes the distribution of prescription and non--prescription diagnostics, at-home testing, post-surgical products. We are also gearing up for the launch of the first alternative at-home diagnostic product, expected in 4th quarter 2010. In June 2010 the company executed a five year exclusive agreement with and among Shasta Technologies, LLC and Broadtree, Inc. for the exclusive distribution of this at-home diagnostic product. The product has been given the trade name of Genstrip.
Beginning in November 2009, we introduced our cell-phone centric medical IT products that offer solutions in medical care and management by providing physicians with information at the point of care. Unlike other medical information systems using standard computer terminals or even palm-sized computers (PDAs), our software applications operate on a series of late generation smart cell phones including the Apple iPhone, the Palm Pre, the Google Droid, several makes of RIMs Blackberry and many versions of the Microsoft Windows smart phones. Our products allow physicians to carry, access and update their patients histories, medication data, and best care guidelines - all at the point of care. The companys Electronic Medical Records software is believed to be the first EMR application running on any palm sized mobile device.
We also have adapted our medical communications and EMR technologies to service the real estate management and hotel/motel/convenience industries in their own commercial settings. In March 2010, the Board approved the sale of the companys hotel/motel technologies and business base so we can focus on our core medical IT business and sales of diagnostic products. In the past, our real estate and hotel/motel objectives included building electronic commerce networks based on personal digital assistants (PDA) and pad based computers to the hotels, motels and single building, multi-unit apartment buildings with a desire to offer local advertising and electronic services to their tenants/guests. We believe that this business model is still viable. However we lack the capital and resources of those companies that currently offer electronic and media services to hotels and motels.
Prescription and Non-prescription Diagnostics
The prescription and non-prescription diagnostics business is often subsidized or funded by government benefits, even before the recent reform laws, which seems to be aggressively moving to take advantage of the tremendous opportunity in direct to patient solutions via direct mail order distribution of prescription and non-prescription diagnostics and related products/supplies. We acquired a retail mail order business concept for the distribution of pharmaceutical and healthcare supplies. We are focusing our distribution activities to patients who lack prescription drug coverage and patients who qualify for government or institutional programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, childrens health insurance programs and long-term care institutions and organizations.
Our retail prescription and non-prescription diagnostics business maintains three operating units:
| 1. | Licensed wholesale prescription drug distribution business, where we deliver bulk prescription drugs on a wholesale basis to clients; |
| 2. | Licensed distribution of diabetes diagnostics and supplies, where we deliver diabetic testing strips and associated diagnostic products under several business models; and |
| 3. | Licensed distribution of diabetes diagnostics and supplies, where we will deliver our new alternative method diabetic testing strips, the first of these alternative method test strips being our Genstrip, which will be sold into into several healthcare channels, including retail markets andto Medicare Part D providers.. |
Our plan is to combine the wholesale, proprietary (alternative) and direct to patient distribution businesses and couple these businesses with the capabilities to connect physicians, using our smart cell phone technologies, creating wide-ranging ventures similar in function to existing Internet pharmacies but directed to serving the large base of institutionalized, underinsured and uninsured Americans through their physicians.
Medical Field Applications
·
Our medical technologies are grounded in the central need/desire to furnish the practicing physician with crucial point-of-care patient information and historical patient medical information using electronic medical records rapidly and reliably via a smart cell phone. The technologies utilize the power of the Internet to move large amounts of data to and from a variety of platforms securely via a number of commercially available smart cell phones, designed for portability and upgradeability. Compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and the regulations that have since been promulgated, and data transmission and data management protocols that have emerged, this smart cell phone technology offers real-time point of care applications and EMR via proprietary technologies that allow for patient medical data for ten years or more on the cell phone itself.
14
·
Our software is designed to integrate point of service applications. Our medical appliance, the longest available product, monitors treatment protocols and up to the moment patient histories coupled with real-time on-line medical insurance claims submission. Our ultimate key to success resides in providing the private practice physician with the capability to, sequentially, learn about the history of the patient during, or prior to, entering the examining room, treat the patient and update the insurer of the episode of care. Accomplishing these objectives resolves a major dilemma for the health care provider; instantaneous communication of vital patient related information at or before the patient encounter.
Medical field distribution methods
·
Since inception, we have and will continue to focus our marketing efforts towards general medical and pharmaceutical medical applications through our E-Health and EMR smart cell phone information appliance ) software application package, and a permanently affixed handheld information appliance and commercial national cell phone network. Specifically we have marketed our line of MD@Hand smart cell phone-based medical communication network products to the medical insurance and pharmacy benefits management segments of the healthcare markets.
·
We have implemented a targeted marketing campaign to educate healthcare providers about our medical technology solutions; targeting the physician providers who specialize in care for the indigent through the provision of technology, products and services that specifically respond to the needs and requirements of that market. We market our suite of medical software products by emphasizing their simplicity, portability, convenience and ease of use. We have chosen this focus due in part that state Medicaid and state and local welfare service providers are agencies who do not typically participate in electronic services networks. This is primarily because care for the poor and indigent is logistically and financially burdensome due to a lack of resources at administrative levels. Put another way, there is usually no shortage of volunteer physicians but there is a shortage of program administrators, clinics, medical supplies and patient access. Additionally, we believe that a company that enters this loop to complete the link by providing utility and value to participants will be embraced. It is incumbent on us to therefore extend our marketing strategy to facilitate this reality.
·
Implicit to our medical marketing strategy is the contracting of state Medicaid and welfare programs, pharmacy benefit management entities, and medical case management entities within a targeted region that provides for system integration to our products and services. Once the network has been established our IT driven mail order pharmacy services will be distributed to those physicians included within the Medicaid or welfare agency Provider Network. We will rely on those contracted agencies to support and assist in the distribution of the product to the physicians
Medical field competition
·
The medical industry is highly competitive in the attraction and retention of physician customers, insurers, government agency payers/sponsors and other medical providers. The number of competing companies and the size of such companies vary in different geographic areas. Generally, we are in competition with other smart cell phone technology companies that offer medically related software suites, with the most effective competition coming from companies that possess greater capital resources, have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, greater name recognition and significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than do we.
·
There are a number of small and large companies that provide some type of IT services at the point of care tying physicians to the healthcare systems. There is substantial turnover and business failure in this industry as well as substantial consolidation:
1.
Large publicly traded companies.
2.
PDA or smart Pad technology-based companies.
These companies, and others, offer products and services similar to ours: only delivering older PDA based data management to physicians. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, and competitive pressures faced by us may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, as a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, management may from time to time make certain pricing, service or marketing decisions or acquisitions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
15
Seasonality
The distribution of medical products and medical diagnostics in aggregate account for the overwhelming percentage of our revenues. Our past experiences point to a business that displays certain seasonal trends. In each of the last four operating years our order intake was concentrated in the first five months of the calendar year and to an identifiable degree in the months of October and November. Likewise, activity slowed during the months of July and August. One explanation for increased activity is that active months tend to correspond with the beginning of a prescription drug plan years, October and November being the first two months of the federal Medicare formularies, where new prescription drug cards are distributed by Medicare to their enrollees in Medicare Advantage, and again in the months of January and February where private insurers provide their new prescription cards along with new plan formularies (price schedules). This tends to influence stocking up buying/ordering behavior during these months on the part of the patients who routinely order multi-month supplies. The company believes that the seasonal trends in calendar year 2011 will be influenced heavily by the full build-up of its new at-home diagnostic testing product, Genstrip. Regarding Genstrip, the company believes it will reach full implementation of our recent agreement with a major retailer should lead to shipment of large quantities of product during our build-up/roll-out during the first quarter 2011 as the retailer builds stock. We also anticipate additional retailers to come to agreement with the company, further influencing the second quarter 2011.

General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses primarily consist of insurance premiums, office expense, and rent expense. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, administrative costs increased as a result of additional liability insurance purchased in connection with our overseas purchasing. In 2009, our premiums totaled $7,540 compared to $21,768 in 2010 representing approximately 75% of the increase in administrative expenses.
Consulting Services
We utilize the services of outside consultants for the purpose developing new sales markets and general business consulting. In the current three-month period, we paid $15,867 in cash to our business development consulting firm compared to $11,070 in the prior year comparable period, an increase of $4,797. In addition, we issued shares of our common stock and paid cash to several general business consultants. The fair value of the shares issued in the current quarter totaled $7,740 verses $0 paid in the previous year. Total cash paid was $6,500 compared to $0 in the same period of 2009.
Payroll Expense
Our payroll expense is comprised of both cash and share-based payments to our officers. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, we recorded cash paid to employees totaling $11,700 compared to $18,000 in the comparable period of the previous. This represents a decrease in cash compensation of $6,300 or 35%. Our significant decrease in compensation resulted from a decrease of $14,251 in share-based payments to our officers. In 2009, our board of directors granted 3,000,000 shares of our common stock, fair valued at $25,500 to two of our officers for services compared to 500,000 options being granted to a director in 2010 with a fair value of $11,249.
Our principal executive officer has forgone cash compensation until such point we have sufficient operating cash flows to meet additional payroll obligations. Historically, we have provided bonus compensation in the form of equity to our officers and directors for various services they have provided and we may consider an equity grant in the future.
Professional Fees
Professional fees include both legal and accounting fees paid in connection with our business activities and regulatory requirements. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 we recorded an estimate of $50,000 in unbilled legal expenses arising from various business activities primarily causing the significant increase of $56,645 over the previous years comparable period.
Total Expenses and Net Operating Income
As a result of our 10% increase in gross profit, we achieved net operating income of $268,493 compared to $161,967 in 2009. As we continue to expand our market share and develop relationships with more cost effective suppliers, we anticipate realizing continued net operating income
Financing Costs
Financing costs represent shares issued in connection with our revolving line of credit with Centurion Credit Resources LLC. This agreement allows us the necessary capital to finance and turn our inventory creating an ability to generate revenue we had not previously had due to our significant deficiencies in working capital. Our agreement with Centurion requires an interest payment equal to 5% of each advance. Finance payments are paid to Centurion through equity issuances of the companys preferred and common stock. The ability to pay in shares allows us to build our own working capital through the gross profit received on each sale with the anticipation of limiting the necessity for future working capital financing. Our costs attributable to these equity issuances increased from $24,133 to $46,790. An increase occurs as a result of increases in lending activity and the market price of our stock. We were advanced $4,757,870 during the third quarter of 2010 compared to advances of $3,780,079 in 2009. As we continue to build our working capital, we anticipate a continued decrease in the amount needed to finance our sales activities.
Interest Expense
Interest expense has declined significantly from $29,742 to $8,414 or 72%. The material decline comes from the accumulation of debt conversions during the first and second quarters of 2010 and debt forgiveness occurring in the latter half of 2009. Our decrease in principal debt owed at September 30, 2009 compared to September 30, 2010 is $451,114. The decrease in principal with an average interest rate of approximately 12% accounts for the material decrease in our interest expense over the prior years comparable period. We anticipate this amount to continue to decrease over the remainder of the current year as we pay-off remaining principal balances.
17
Gain on Debt Settlement and Settlement Expense
During the three-months ended September 30, 2009, we recorded a gain on debt settlement in the amount of $121,178 and a non-recurring event. In the three-month period of 2010, we entered into a Settlement and Mutual Release agreements with a lender. Pursuant to this agreement, we converted principal of $75,000 into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.015. In addition to the conversion, we agreed to forgo the refund of $75,000 previously paid for a full release of liability. The $75,000 was recorded as a settlement expense in connection with the agreement.
Net Income
Our net income for the period ended September 30, 2010 decreased by $90,981 over the comparable period in the previous year. This is primarily attributable to the increase in financing cost and the settlement expense incurred during the three-month period.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the nine-months ended September 30, 2010 were $253,929, an increase of $34,755, or 14%, from $219,174 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2009. We have focused our business development towards targeted market areas for our diabetic testing products, as a result of this focused agenda, we have been able to streamline overhead utilizing only those resources that directly attribute to our sales growth. General and administrative expenses are expected to fluctuate throughout the remainder of the year.
Consulting Services
We have historically relied on outside consultants for assistance in business development and sales. As we are becoming more seasoned in our pharmaceutical product lines, we have been able to focus the resources available to us towards building and maintaining our market share. We expended $181,642 for consulting services compared to $60,827 during the same period in the previous year, representing an increase of 67%. The increase of $120,815 is primarily comprised of share-based payments fair valued at $100,103.
Payroll expense
During the nine-months ended September 30, 2010 our payroll expense was comprised of cash totaling $35,550 and equity of $11,249 compared to $39,000 in cash and $85,500 in equity for the comparable period in 2009. As our sales continue to grow, we anticipate our payroll expense will also increase at a pro rata rate.
Professional Fees
Our professional fees consist of legal, accounting and expenses associated with being a fully reporting public company. Our fees for these services increased for the nine-month period by $58,496 from $71,660 in 2009 to $130,156 for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2010. During the period ended September 30, 2010 we recorded an estimate of $50,000 in unbilled legal expenses arising from various business activities causing the significant increase.
Total Expenses
Our total operating expenses increased $135,208 or 22% for the nine-months ended September 30, 2010 when compared to the same period a year ago. The increase is directly related to additional consulting and legal fees paid in 2010 compared to 2009.
19
Net Operating Income
We had net operating income in the amount of $793,357 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2010, versus a net operating income of $458,314 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2009. As we maintain our business focus toward building sales and minimizing unnecessary overhead, we are hopeful to continue with positive earnings results.
Financing Costs
Financing costs for the nine-months ended September 30, 2010 were $121,963, a decrease of $6,725, or 6%, from $128,688 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2009. Financing costs result from our revolving line of credit with Centurion Credit Resources LLC. This agreement allows us the necessary capital to finance and turn our inventory creating an ability to generate revenue we had not previously had due to our significant deficiencies in working capital. Interest payments are paid to Centurion in the form of cash, calculated by multiplying the companys outstanding balance of loans made by Centurion by 2% per month. A bonus of 20% of the companys margin on each transaction is also paid to Centurion. Shares of our common stock are paid to Centurion as a bonus on qualifying transactions. The ability to pay in shares allows us to build our own working capital through the gross profit received on each sale with the anticipation of limiting the necessity for future working capital financing.
Interest Expense
Interest expense has declined significantly from $143,883 to $49,922 or 188%. The material decline is the result of debt conversions during the first and second quarters of 2010 and debt forgiveness occurring in the latter half of 2009. Our decrease in principal debt owed at September 30, 2009 compared to September 30, 2010 is $451,114. The decrease in principal with an average interest rate of approximately 12% accounts for the material decrease in our interest expense over the prior years comparable period. We anticipate this amount to continue to decrease over the remainder of the current year as we pay-off remaining principal balances.
Net Income
Our net income for the nine-months ended September 30, 2010, was $583,518 compared to $1,636,610 from our previous year. This was solely attributable to the change in gain on debt settlement of $1,450,867 recorded during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009. An omission of the non-recurring gains on debt settlement in both periods would result in net income of $549,472 and $185,743, respectively. This is an overall increase in net income of $363,729 or 196%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our ability to generate working capital has become more consistent during the first half of 2010 though we have not yet achieved levels whereby creating a completely self-sufficient organization. Therefore, our ability to obtain additional capital through equity and/or debt financing remains a critical component of our operating plan. In the event we cannot obtain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic plan, we may have to cease or significantly curtail our operations. This would materially impact our ability to continue operations.
The following table summarizes our current assets, liabilities and working capital at September 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009.

Internal and External Sources of Liquidity
MAG Entities Agreement
On February 7, 2005, we entered into agreements with Mercator Momentum Fund, LP and Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd. (collectively, the Purchasers) and Mercator Advisory Group, LLC, later known as MAG Capital, LLC (MAG). Under the terms of the agreements, we agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers agreed to purchase from the Company, 20,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock at $100.00 per share. Additionally, we issued 1,250,000 warrants to purchase share of our common stock at $1.60 per share, all of the warrants expired on February 7, 2008. However, prior to the expiration of the warrants, MAG ordered the company to transfer the warrants originally issued to Mercator Momentum Fund, LP and Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd. to MAG Capital, LLC, in breach of the agreements.
20
Through September 30, 2009, MAG had converted 2,140 shares of their Series C preferred into 1,372,901 shares of our restricted common stock. Subsequently MAG attempted to convert shares without seeking the companys concurrence, a breach of the agreements. On several occasions, MAG succeeded. In addition, MAG pre-sold shares that would have resulted from conversions, a breach of the anti-short sale provisions of the agreements. On October 8, 2008 the company received a letter from Kroll (BVI) Limited of the British Virgin Islands (Receiver or Liquidator) informing the company that the Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd (Monarch) had lapsed into receivership and/or liquidation. The company was advised to cease all written and/or oral communications with MAG Capital, LLC.
Beginning in late 2009 we have received and exchanged additional letters regarding this liquidation whereupon the Liquidator made specific demands for certain stock and repayment of a certain Promissory Note. However these demands were never made specific enough for the company to respond in any way other than to ask the Liquidator to provide full documentation supporting their alleged claims. Subsequently on June 24, 2010, Monarch Point Fund, Ltd. (in receivership) brought an action in federal district court against Instacare Corp., Keith Berman and Robert Cox. The company and Mr. Berman intend to vigorously defend this suit and also intend to file counterclaims in this matter. On August 12, 2010 we received an initial settlement offer through the counsel for the Liquidator. Subsequently there have been additional offers and counter-offers. Among other stated issues these offers of settlement will bring an end to the litigation.
Subsequently the company has learned that Mercator Momentum Fund, LP had also lapsed into receivership and liquidation.
Pinnacle Investment Partners, LP Promissory Note
On March 24, 2004, we entered into a Secured Convertible Promissory Note with Pinnacle Investment Partners, LP for the principal amount of $700,000 with an interest rate of 12% per annum. On February 10, 2005, we entered into a note extension agreement whereby Pinnacle agreed to advance an additional $400,000 and extend the maturity until April 24, 2006. On July 1, 2006, we entered into a second extension of the note, which matured on December 24, 2006. We are accruing interest at a default rate of 12% per annum. The note is convertible at a rate of $0.30 per share and has been secured by 2,212,500 shares of our common stock, which can be sold by the lender as a means to repay the balance due. As of December 31, 2009, Pinnacle has sold 924,948 escrow shares valued at $406,215, which has been applied to accrued interest and the principal balance of the note.
Since August 3, 2006, the Company has not had contact with any of the Pinnacle Fund management or attorney in fact. We did not deliver the shares called for under the July 1, 2006 extension after being advised by the fund management to stand still. Other shares previously issued remain. On September 23, 2007 the company received a phone call from an attorney formerly associated with Pinnacle Investment Partners, LP and was advised that the fund had ceased operations, and was closed. We were also informed that of the two fund principals, one was deceased and the other incarcerated.
Promissory Notes with Dennis Cantor and Novex International
On May 23, 2006, we entered into a promissory note with Dennis Cantor and Novex International for the principal amount of $255,000. Pursuant to the note we promised to pay Dennis Cantor and Novex International the sum of $255,000 together with interest at a rate of one half of one percent (0.5%) every ten days beginning on May 23, 2006 and running through the maturity date of June 30, 2006. In the case of a default in payment of principal, all overdue amounts under the note shall bear a penalty obligation at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum accruing from the maturity date. On July 1, 2006, we extended the note to July 31, 2006. We have made principal payments of $125,000. As of September 30, 2009, the remaining principal balance was $130,000. On April 14, 2010, we accepted Mr. Cantor request to convert the principal balance plus accrued interest into shares of the Companys common stock. We have issued to Mr. Cantor 1,939,543 common stock shares.
Convertible Loan Payment Agreement
On July 17, 2006, we entered into a convertible loan payment agreement with Wayne G. Knapp wherein Mr. Knapp agreed to loan the Company the sum of $200,000. The loan is for 120 days. On October 17, 2006, we renewed the note. On January 17, 2007, the parties verbally agreed to a renewal that expires on May 16, 2007. The note accrues monthly interest at a rate of 1.50% and the interest is payable quarterly in cash. The total amount owing pursuant to the agreement, was convertible at the option of Mr. Knapp at any time from July 17, 2006 until November 30, 2006, at the strike price equal to $0.32 per share or 90% of the final bid price of our common stock on the day prior to conversion with a floor price of $0.10 per share. We renewed Mr. Knapps conversion option on January 17, 2007. We also issued Mr. Knapp a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of our common stock at $0.32 per share through December 31, 2009. Mr. Knapp exercised his option on March 30, 2007. In March 2010, Mr. Knapp elected to convert his note and accrued interest into 2,900,000 common stock shares.

Centurion Credit Resources
On November 17, 2007, we entered into an agreement with Centurion Credit Resources, LLC to secure a $1,000,000 revolving credit facility that is geared specifically to our business. As of October 2008, the company renewed its agreement with Centurion Credit Resources, LLC until November 17, 2009 and as an inducement to renew the credit line was increased to $2,000,000, with additional seasonal increases to $2,500,000. Terms of the credit facility allow us to increase the available credit in increments of $250,000 as our business grows. As of September 30, 2010, we have draw down $7,137,380 and repaid $7,514,678. We believe the existing facility is sufficient to finance our at home diabetes diagnostics business for revenues up to $15.0 million per quarter. In June 2010 we began discussions with Centurion for an additional $6.0 million credit facility to provide available credit to finance sales of our new at-home testing diagnostic product. We expect to conclude this additional arrangement with Centurion during 3Q 2010. We are also entertaining additional proposed credit facilities with various hedge funds, commercial banks and a religious fund.
Cragmont Capital, LLC
In March 2008, we entered into a Convertible Promissory Note Purchase Agreement with Cragmont Capital, LLC (Cragmont) wherein Cragmont agreed to loan the Company an aggregate sum of $250,000. As of September 30, 2008, we have received $75,000. Cragmont contends the loan was for one year, maturing on February 28, 2009. The total amount owing pursuant to the agreement, was convertible at the option of the lender, at a strike price equal to $0.015 per share. Further, we agreed subject to certain conditions to issue 100 warrants with a strike price of $0.03 expiring on December 31, 2010 for every dollar loaned by Cragmont.
The warrant transaction was conditioned upon Cragmont purchasing the warrant at closing. No agreement was ever reached with Cragmont as to the purchase price for the warrants, and they were never purchased by Cragmont at the closing. During the year ended December 31, 2008, we terminated our relationship with Cragmont. On March 10, 2010, we issued payment in the amount of $75,000 to Cragmont, representing the return of partial funding pursuant to our rescission of the March 1, 2008 agreement. The company entered formal settlement discussions covering the remainder of the agreement in dispute in July 2010 and completed the settlement in October 2010.
Cash Flow. Since inception, we have primarily financed our cash flow requirements through the issuance of common stock, the issuance of notes and sales generated income. With the growth of our current business in 2010 we may, during our normal course of business, experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of revenue which often are delayed as a result of the nature of the healthcare industry. Further, we may be required to obtain financing to fund operations through additional common stock offerings and bank or other debt borrowings, to the extent available, or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our available working capital.
Satisfaction of our cash obligations for the next 12 months.
As of September 30, 2010, our cash balance was $181,087. Our plan for satisfying our cash requirements for the next twelve months is through additional equity, third party financing, and/or debt financing. We anticipate sales-generated income during that same period-of-time, but do not anticipate generating sufficient amounts of positive cash flow to meet our working capital requirements. Consequently, we intend to make appropriate plans to insure sources of additional capital in the future to fund growth and expansion through additional equity or debt financing or credit facilities.
Expected purchase or sale of plant and significant equipment.
We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment; as such items are not required by us at this time.
Going Concern
The financial statements included in this filing have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate the continuance of the Company as a going concern. The Company's cash position is currently inadequate to pay all normal costs associated testing, production and marketing of products. Management intends to use borrowings and security sales to mitigate the effects of its cash position, however no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required will be available. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue existence.
22
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results or operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Not required for Smaller Reporting Companies
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Financial Officer, Keith Berman, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Companys Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
There has been no change in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
Internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even a system which is determined to be effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected or prevented. Our systems of internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
PART II--OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We transact commerce in several medical products market channels. We also transact commerce by licensing our proprietary medical software that functions by moving confidential medical data through our proprietary medical information technology devices such as smart cell phones and commercial computer networks. Healthcare, especially those segments where the company competes, is very litigious. From time to time, we may become involved in claims and litigation that arise out of the normal course of business, such as litigation that emerges from disputes over damaged, missing or contaminated product. We may also become involved in disputes that arise over the business or business practices of our suppliers, payors and customers. The company maintains substantial insurance coverage against suits that may arise over issues of damaged, recalled or counterfeit product and other product liability issues. In addition, the company accrues contingent legal fees and product liability fees. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, these accruals totaled $205,500 and $305,500, respectively.
From time to time, the company may also be subject to claims and/or demands from individuals or entities. These demands and disputes may consume management time and company resources. During the past 12 months the company has had to evaluate and defend claims made by individuals and parties that have resulted from the actions or promises and in some cases unknown agreements made by our former CEO. All of these claims are over two years old and several over four 4 years. In every case thus far it appears that our former CEO knew of these claims and withheld information and documentation from the company. Other than as noted below there are no pending matters at the current time that in managements judgment may be considered potentially material to us.
Cragmont Capital, LLC vs. instaCare Corp. et al.
The Company received a legal complaint on March 27, 2009 in connection with its 2008 transaction with Cragmont Capital, LLC ("Cragmont"). In Cragmonts Complaint it claims it is entitled to recover the unpaid balance of $75,000 on a Promissory Note allegedly due in February, 2009, plus interest of $2,813, and attorneys fees. Cragmont has amended its complaint twice, the last amendment to raise issues concerning whether it has a legal right to exercise certain warrants.
23
The written agreement with Cragmont was signed in the first quarter of 2008. The Company raised various affirmative defenses to Cragmonts claims, including claims of breach of contract and misrepresentation, and has sought to rescind the entire agreement. The Company terminated a portion of its relationship with Cragmont for cause, in May 2008. The Company believes that Cragmont breached its obligations in connection with the promised parallel financing transactions. The Company would not have entered into the March 2008 agreement but for the representations of Cragmont concerning the parallel finance transaction[s].
In March 2010, and as part of its recession, the company has returned the $75,000 it received as consideration in the transaction. On October 1, 2010 the parties entered into a final settlement thereby bringing an end to the litigation.
Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd (BVI) in receivership vs. instaCare Corp. et al.

(BVI) (in receivership) brought an action in United States District Court, Central District of California, Case # CV 10 4703 against Instacare Corp., Keith Berman and Robert Cox alleging conversion by InstaCare of certain Convertible Preferred Series C Stock allegedly owned by Monarch, breach of contract and breach of a promissory note. Although it is too early to determine the course of this litigation the company and Mr. Berman intend to vigorously defend this suit and also intend to file counterclaims against the fund in receivership and others. On August 12, 2010 the company received an initial formal settlement offer through the counsel for the Liquidator. Subsequently there have been additional offers and counter-offers. Among other stated issues these offers of settlement are intended to bring an end to the litigation.
