TORONTO, March 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VitalHub Corp. (the “Company” or “VitalHub”) (TSX: VHI) is pleased to announce significant growth in market penetration of UK-based subsidiary Intouch with Health (“Intouch”).
Intouch with Health has made significant headway increasing their market penetration across the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS). As a result of the sales closed in Q1 2022 and strong growth over the 2021 period, Intouch has achieved substantial market penetration across the NHS. Based on the 2020/2021 NHS tables, there are a total of 140 Acute Trusts in England, and Intouch has at least one module sold into 73 Acute Trusts in England, or across approximately ~52% of total sites. This compares with approximately ~42% install rate across NHS Acute Trusts in the prior year.
NHS outpatient appointments totaled approximately 97,712,855 during the period, with approximately 55,170,725 or ~56.5% of total outpatient appointments being processed through the Intouch Platform. NHS outpatient attendances totaled approximately 74,808,465 during the period, with approximately 41,851,500 or ~55.9% of total outpatient attendances being processed through the Intouch Platform. This compares with 41% of all NHS outpatient attendances during the prior period.
“We are delighted to report strong growth in our penetration of the UK healthcare market,” said Dan Matlow, CEO of VitalHub Corp. “We now have active deployments across more than 50% of Acute Trusts in the NHS, demonstrating the traction and execution of our growth strategy. Importantly, there is still significant opportunity for upsell, as we continue to sell in additional modules and offerings amongst our existing install base. We plan to continue to expand our footprint, both through the generation of net new sales, and continued expansion agreements with our existing customers.”
