CALABASAS, CALIFORNIA, August 18, 2005,.... CREATIVE COMPUTER APPLICATIONS, INC. or CCA, (AMEX-CAP), a provider of Clinical Information Systems (CIS) for hospital and clinic-based laboratories, pharmacies, and medical imaging departments announced today that it has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with StorCOMM, Inc.
