HORSHAM,
Pa - (BUSINESS WIRE) -
CARExpress members now have
access to (i) an online physician program, which allows members to consult
with board certified, experienced physicians about healthcare issues, (ii)
an online psychologist program, which allows members to consult with
licensed psychologists about mental health concerns, and (iii) an online
health assessment program, which enables members to maintain a personal
health record through which they can identify potential health concerns
and access practical information about those concerns. In addition, CARExpress members
will have access to a 24-hour registered nurse advice line, a 3D health
encyclopedia, a medical library and weekly health
tips.
The company has also enhanced
its CARExpress programs by increasing the number of participating
pharmacies accessible to CARExpress members from approximately 45,000
pharmacies to approximately 48,000 pharmacies and making greater discounts
available to the company's CARExpress members when they purchase in-store
and mail-order prescriptions.
In addition, the company has now obtained an additional revenue
stream. Each time an in-store
or mail-order prescription is purchased by a CARExpress member, the
company will receive a fee from the pharmacy provider network
organization.
"We are always looking for
opportunities to improve the benefits available to our CARExpress
members," stated David M. Daniels, President and Chief Executive Officer
of National Health Partners.
"The addition of these online healthcare benefits together with a
more comprehensive network of pharmacies offering greater discounts to our
members represents a tremendous enhancement to our CARExpress
Network. The additions also
provide an even more compelling reason for people to join CARExpress and
remain a member for a long period of time. Additionally, we are now receiving
a significant benefit through the receipt of a fee for each prescription
purchased by our members. We
will continue to pursue additional opportunities to improve our CARExpress
network for our members as we continue to aggressively grow our business
throughout 2008."
