NEW BRITAIN, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 8, 2001

Moore Medical Corp (AMEX:MMD), a leading national distributor of medical, surgical and pharmaceutical products to health care professionals, today announced preferred medical supplier agreements with Apogee Health Partners Inc. and QTC Management Inc. Moore Medical's national distribution centers combined with its seamless online and catalog ordering capabilities were cited as major factors in relying upon Moore Medical (www.mooremedical.com) for their medical supplies.

"The confidence these respected companies have placed in us is gratifying and confirms our business strategy of combining online and off-line capabilities to enhance our value to customers," stated Linda M. Autore, president and CEO of Moore Medical Corp. "No matter which ordering option they use - Internet, catalog, phone or through our sales representatives - these businesses know the orders will be filled quickly and efficiently using our well-located distribution centers.

"We want to bring our physician members into the 21st Century through the ease and convenience of Moore Medical online ordering services, while at the same time providing them with quick, reliable and traditional customer service."

QTC Management Inc., located in Diamond Bar, California, is a consortium of medical clinics and a national provider of medical and disability evaluations for state and federal government agencies and the private sector. QTC currently owns and operates 27 clinics and is in the process of opening additional clinics nationwide. Moore Medical is fulfilling the medical supply needs of QTC clinics nationwide.
