Advanzeon Solutions, Inc.'s Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, Pharmacy Value Management Solutions, Inc., Signs Agreement With Ultimate Consultation, Inc.
TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Advanzeon Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: CHCR), ("Advanzeon") announced today that, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pharmacy Value Management Solutions, Inc. ("PVMS") (collectively, sometimes referred to as the "Company"), it has signed an agreement with Ultimate Consultation, Inc. ("UCI") to market, promote, and participate in operating the Company's SleepMaster Solutions™ sleep apnea program to a wide variety of medical service providers providing care to individuals with "Special Needs." These include developmentally disabled, mental health, substance abuse, and a variety of other individuals requiring specialized care. The Agreement is effective immediately. The initial population being earmarked for the home sleep apnea testing program totals approximately 2,000, with testing planned to commence December 15, 2015. The first round of testing is projected to generate gross revenue of approximately $2.8 million. Additional patient testing will be added as quickly as manpower and availability of testing equipment permits.
This engagement provides that UCI will introduce the Company's innovative sleep apnea diagnostic and treatment program (the "Program") as its exclusive sleep apnea program along with its other healthcare products servicing various Special Needs agencies throughout the State of New York. The Special Needs population has, traditionally, when tested, demonstrated a high instance of obstructive sleep apnea ("OSA"). Unfortunately, testing of this group has not traditionally been the norm and a large segment of this population goes undiagnosed as sufferers of OSA. UCI has a long and distinguished history of providing clinical care to the Special Needs communities. UCI currently services Special Needs agencies who collectively service tens of thousands Special Needs patients. For the past two months, prior to the signing of the above Agreement, members of UCI's staff have been training with the Company's staff in New York, learning the intricacies of providing the Program to their various end users.
Jerry Smith, Advanzeon's Chief Operating Officer, stated, "We have long been aware that our sleep apnea program has tremendous application in the Special Needs communities. We are also very familiar with UCI's strong position as a premier servicer of the Special Needs communities. This relationship with UCI allows us to dramatically advance our mission of implementing our Program, quickly, to a vast group of end users. The relationship also allows us to provide our services in a manner consistent with the specialized needs for this very special group. The Program will be delivered in various settings, including group homes, specialized clinics, day treatment programs and other specialized care settings. Through this relationship with UCI, we expect our customer volume to grow rapidly and to significantly widen our geographic footprint in the Northeast commercial markets. Phase one is scheduled to commence December 15, 2015, with major regional hospitals and clinics currently servicing the Special Needs agencies. We believe that a significant number of the Special Needs population being serviced by UCI will require an initial home sleep apnea test with a significant number of the population being tested requiring long-term sleep apnea treatment."
Dr. Eric Plaue, CEO of Ultimate Consultation, Inc., states "We are thrilled to be part of the PVMS family and we are excited at the opportunity to implement these great programs throughout the Special Needs communities. Our long history of providing clinical services throughout these communities and our familiarity with their intricate needs places us in a great position to successfully market and implement the SleepMaster Solutions™ Program to a wide variety of providers. Our initial research gives us excellent reason to anticipate a very positive response to the Program by both the providers and patients."
