HORSHAM, Pa - (BUSINESS WIRE) -   National Health Partners, Inc. (OTCBB: NHPR - News), a leading provider of unique discount healthcare membership programs, announced that it has added a number of new services to its CARExpress programs.

    

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."
