National Health Partners
ANNOUNCES AGREEMENT WITH TOTALHR    
  

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 it has entered into an agreement with TotalHR, Inc., a leading provider of employee leasing and employment services that help small and medium size businesses across the country control their human resource administration, employment costs and employee benefits.

TotalHR currently provides a variety of employee benefits opportunities to small and medium size businesses across the country.  Approximately 40% of these businesses provide no employee benefits of any kind to their employees.  Under the agreement, TotalHR will offer the company's CARExpress membership programs to these businesses.  These businesses may purchase the company's CARExpress membership programs for their employees, enable their employees to purchase the programs themselves through employer administered payroll deductions, or simply permit their employees to purchase the programs directly from the company.  This is the first time that TotalHR has offered a comprehensive health discount program like CARExpress to its clientele.

"We are very excited that TotalHR has chosen CARExpress as the health discount membership programs that TotalHR will be offering to its impressive list of clients," stated David M. Daniels, President and Chief Executive Officer of National Health Partners.  "More than 40% of small businesses do not offer employer-sponsored health coverage, and premiums for employer-sponsored health coverage are expected to increase from $7,000 per year in 2001 to $17,000 per year in 2011.  We are always seeking opportunities to work with premier companies like TotalHR that have a large number of small and medium size company clients seeking to offer their employees healthcare benefits that are less expensive than traditional health insurance."

"We are very pleased to offer CARExpress' top-flight health discount programs to our extensive list of clients," stated David L. Stone, President of TotalHR, Inc.  "We are always seeking opportunities to make complementary programs and services available to the numerous small and medium size businesses located across the country.  We offer one of the most comprehensive suites of employee leasing and employment services in the country and believe that the addition of CARExpress to our employee benefits offering will further strengthen our position as one of the leading providers of employee benefits and human resource administration services in the United States.  We look forward to a long and successful relationship with National Health Partners."

"Our focus going forward will be to work with as many premier companies like TotalHR as we can," added Mr. Daniels.  "We recently announced the hiring of Frederick Wolf to help bolster our sales and marketing efforts.  I am pleased that Fred has already generated significant opportunities for us in such a short period of time.  We expect to announce several additional key deals in the next few weeks that will have a material impact on our business going forward."
