Praxsyn-Announces-Over-$4-Million-in-PPO-Approved-Claims-for-February-of 2015


IRVINE, Calif., March 3, 2015 -- Praxsyn Corporation (OTCQB:PXYN (link is external)) announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, Mesa Pharmacy Inc. (Mesa), has final committed amounts in excess of $4 million for approved preferred provider organization (PPO) claims dating from February 1, 2015 through February 28, 2015 from 15 of its 28 licensed states across the country. The commitment of these claims has been accomplished through its previously announced marketing agreement with NHS Pharma, Inc. Marketing and billing costs are still applicable at industry standards of 55 percent of the total amount billed.

"The benefit of PPO is that every claim is approved at the billed amount and at the point of service," said Edward Kurtz, Chief Executive Officer, Praxsyn Corporation. "Insurance companies are committed to pay the total amount billed within 30-90 days of the prescription being filled. This eliminates the need for Mesa to finance their PPO claims."

Due to the faster processing of PPO claims, Mesa expects to have more cash on hand in order to pay down debt and continue growing the business. "Reinvesting cash into the business is part of our overall strategy of increasing value to our shareholders," said Bob Crowson, Controller, Praxsyn Corporation. Mesa will continue to fill prescriptions for Workman's Compensation (WC) claims through NexGen Med Solutions, however, due to the slow payment component of these claims it will still be necessary to utilize factoring for such accounts receivables.

Mesa continued to make progress towards dispensing its customized medication nationally and is currently shipping to 15 of its 28 licensed states. The company is now licensed in the following 28 states:
