...by Masterpiece Technology Group

--(BUSINESS WIRE)

In BW0459, (FL-MASTERPIECE-TECH)(MPTG) Healthcare Compliance Institute Approves Masterpiece Technology Group Vendor for New Medicare/Medicaid Compliance Product, please note the following corrections:

--- Masterpiece Technology Group, Inc. (OTCBB:MPTG) today announced
    that its March 12, 2001 press release, entitled "General star
    Indemnity Company Approves Masterpiece Technology Group and HCI as
    Compliance Vendor for New [sic] - Special Insurance Quotes for
    MPTG Customers is [sic] Lowest in Industry," is incorrect in the
    following respects:
      --- Insurance quotes, products or services from General Star
        Indemnity Company are not provided by or through MPTG
      --- MPTG and Healthcare Compliance Institute, Inc. ("HCI") have
        not been authorized by General Star Indemnity Company to
        provide MPTG's compliance consulting customers with "very
        special rates" on Medicare/Medicaid Fraud & Abuse Insurance
        for physicians, or on any other kind of insurance coverage
        from General Star Indemnity Company.
      --- General Star Indemnity Company is anon-admitted or surplus
        lines insurer in all states except Connecticut, where it
        operates as a licensed and admitted insurer. For risks that
        qualify, surplus lines insurance is placed with General Star
        Indemnity Company by licensed surplus lines brokers. MPTG is
        not a licensed surplus lines broker and is therefore not
        legally authorized to place insurance with General Star
        Indemnity Company
      --- MPTG apologizes to General star Indemnity Company for these
        errors and regrets any confusion which may have been caused by
        its earlier press release dated March 12, 2001.
      --- MPTG offers compliance programs through HCI and is not
        involved in sales or quotes of any insurance product.


The corrected news release follows:
