BOCA RATON, Fla., Sept. 26, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Union Dental Holdings Inc., (OTCBB:UDHI) a provider of multi-state dental services for union members, announced today it has signed Community Dental Services (CDS) in California and Nevada as providers for UDHI's recently signed national contract with The Association of Flight Attendants (AFA-CWA) to build a dental network for their members. The CDS network includes 52 cities which already serve the members for The Communications Workers of America (CWA).
Dr. Green, President and CEO of Union Dental commented: "This is an extremely good situation for both the CDS providers and the AFA union members. The extensive coverage of regions throughout California and Nevada by CDS made them our first choice to care for all the AFA members. Their success with the telecom divisions of CWA has proven them to be both conscientious and well adept at the services these individuals will require."
Dr. Green further stated: "While we continue to build provider networks in all the major airline hubs, it is nice to know that the California and Nevada networks will be in good provider's hands. The time savings to UDC by this group deciding to participate will free us to pay greater attention to our other developing networks in Chicago, Philadelphia, Seattle, Detroit, Denver, Seattle and elsewhere across the United States."
The Communications Workers of America union members represent workers who are employed by BellSouth, Qwest, AT&T, Lucent, General Electric, Verizon, SBC Communications, Avaya, and many other varied occupational fields such as public maintenance, food service, and law enforcement while the Association of Flight Attendants represent workers who are employed by United Air Lines, Mesa Air, Horizon, US Air, Spirit, PSA, Hawaiian Air, America West, Midwest Air, Northwest Air, and Alaska Air.
