ANNOUNCES AGREEMENT WITH UNION GROUP     
  

HORSHAM, Pa. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - National Health Partners, Inc. (National Health) (OTCBB: NHPR - News), a leading provider of unique discount healthcare membership programs, announced today that a 200-member union group has purchased the company's CARExpress Plus Gold membership programs for each of its members effective January 1, 2008.  This purchase represents yet another example of the success the company has been experiencing since first making its CARExpress Plus membership programs available to the public.

National Health Partners' innovative approach to healthcare provides a cost-effective way for uninsured and underinsured individuals to obtain the healthcare they need at significantly reduced costs.  The company has networked with prestigious leaders such as CareMark and Aetna to create a revolutionary solution that lowers the costs of such healthcare products and services as prescriptions and medical, dental and vision care through relationship optimization for millions of people.  Through CARExpress Plus, the company has enhanced the scope of the benefits available through its traditional discount programs by including additional healthcare benefits offering even greater cost-savings opportunities.

 "I am very excited about the high level of interest organizations across the country are conveying to me when I describe our CARExpress membership programs to them," stated Fred Wolf, Vice President - New Business Development of National Health Partners.  "Our CARExpress programs almost sell themselves because of the breadth and quality of the healthcare providers comprising CARExpress, the impressive benefits and discounts offered through CARExpress, and the responsiveness of our well-trained customer service staff.  I believe that we will continue to obtain a great deal of success marketing our programs to a variety of organizations across the country."

"As we stated in the past, we have been experiencing a substantial amount of interest in our CARExpress membership programs from organizations ranging from small businesses to union groups and associations," added David M. Daniels, President and Chief Executive Officer of National Health Partners.  "Our CARExpress membership programs are ideally suited for these types of organizations and provide a very cost-effective way for these organizations to provide quality healthcare benefits to their members.  We are very happy with how quickly our CARExpress Plus membership programs have been embraced by so many organizations nationwide and expect to announce several similar deals in the near future."
