HAMILTON, Ontario, Nov. 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reliq Health Technologies Inc. (TSXV:RHT or OTC:RQHTF or WKN:A2AJTB) (“Reliq” or the “Company”), a rapidly growing global medtech company that develops innovative Virtual Care solutions for the multi-billion dollar Healthcare market, today announced that it has signed contracts with two new clients and has expanded the iUGO platform’s support for Hospice care by leveraging Reliq’s iUGO Care and iUGO Home modules.
“We continue to grow our client base in the US and have added two new clients this week,” said Dr. Lisa Crossley, CEO of Reliq Health Technologies, Inc. “These two contracts will add over 1,000 new Medicare patients to our platform at an average revenue of $65 USD per patient per month.

It also consolidates all patient data into one platform, allowing clinicians to more effectively prioritize care for this complex patient population. Over 1.5 Million Medicare patients were enrolled in hospice programs in 2020 and over 48% of all Medicare patients will access hospice care at the end of life, creating significant demand for solutions like iUGO Hospice.”
