LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA--(Marketwired - May 21, 2015) -

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN.

Patient Home Monitoring (PHM) (TSX VENTURE:PHM), a profitable and fast growing company focused on rolling-up annuity-based healthcare service companies in the U.S. and Canada, announced it will be contracting with Apacheta Corporation (Apacheta), a leading provider of mobile delivery management solutions, to implement their next generation tablet-based solutions to help optimize delivery of home medical equipment to PHM's patients at every level.

Through upcoming acquisitions, PHM is preparing to offer additional services and products to over 300,000 patients. To make the operational process as efficient as possible, the company will roll out Apacheta's mobile delivery management solution to gain real-time visibility of its expanding delivery and technical workforce. This comprehensive cloud-based solution includes Apacheta's TransportACE mobile delivery application and Transport Manager scheduling and dispatch system, which allows transport managers to remain better informed as to truck locations and delivery status, as well as to track key operational metrics such as exceptions, stops made and time spent per stop.

"Our goal is to leverage best-in-class technology to drive down operational costs, reduce order-to-cash cycles, and increase our compliance with payors in this highly regulated environment," said Jess Cuthbert, COO for Patient Home Monitoring.

"By partnering with Apacheta we can streamline our operations to reach new levels of efficiency. We expect to see an increase in our profit margins due to this upgraded system immediately."

About PHM

The explosive growth in the number of elderly patients in the US healthcare market is creating pressure to provide more efficient delivery systems. Healthcare providers, such as hospitals, physicians and pharmacies, are seeking partners that can offer a range of products and services that improve outcomes, reduce hospital readmissions, and help control costs. PHM fills this need by delivering a growing number of specialized products and services to achieve these goals. PHM is a positive cash flow and profitable company that serves patients with heart disease and other chronic health conditions, this operation is a platform for acquisitions and organic growth. PHM is focused on a highly fragmented and developing market of small privately-held companies servicing chronically ill patients with multiple disease states caused mainly by age and obesity. Because of the new and highly fragmented nature of the market, PHM is actively working to identify and evaluate profitable, annuity-based companies to acquire their patient databases and technical expertise at favorable prices. PHM's post acquisition organic growth strategy is to increase annual revenue per patient by offering multiple services to the same patient, consolidating the patient's services and making life easier for the patient. The expected result is growing EPS with each acquisition and growing revenue and profits from the cross selling efforts.
