NEWS - MedeFile (MDFI) Makes Strides with the Senior Market
BOCA RATON, Fla., Jan. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MedeFile International, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MDFI), a leader in portable electronic medical records management, today announced that it has signed a marketing agreement with The Senior Site, Inc. The companies will collaborate on initiatives directed to U.S. seniors to promote member subscriptions for MedeFile's comprehensive medical records management solution.
The Senior Site, Inc. caters to an extremely important demographic for MedeFile by providing one-on-one consultations with individual families, caregivers to seniors and corporately by assisting employees in finding eldercare resources. By having a MedeFile each client of The Senior Site, Inc. will be in possession of a potentially live saving tool.
Jo T. Letwaitis, President and CEO of The Senior Site, Inc. stated, "We strive to provide the caregivers of older Americans with various types of support and platforms that help them make decisions and follow through involving their patients care. We believe every senior should have a MedeFile because of their vulnerabilities which unfortunately may include urgent admissions to nursing homes or assisted living facilities. With MedeFile's services, caregivers can enjoy the convenience and peace of mind made possible from knowing that all of their loved ones' actual medical records are within reach at all times. We are truly excited about this innovative service and believe that it will demonstrate the need for all caregivers to utilize."
The mission of The Senior Site, Inc. is to educate caregivers, professionals and the general public on 'all things senior' through various venues and platforms. The Senior Site, Inc. is an all-encompassing senior centric, consulting company assisting elders, adult children, and other concerned parties in various aspects of a senior's needs as they transition from independent, private residence living to the next phase in their life.
"We are very excited to have Jo and her team of professionals at www.theseniorsite.com marketing MedeFile to seniors, a major target market for MedeFile. The benefits of seniors having a MedeFile are invaluable. Seniors tend to have more extensive and complex medical records and may not be best suited to keep track of all the information necessary for proper, thorough treatment. Getting a senior's health and medical information organized and accessible could be an extremely complicated task that can be easily attained through the MedeFile services. With the emphasis on serving the needs of seniors by means of their caregivers, The Senior Site, Inc. team is ideally suited to help MedeFile penetrate this tremendous market. Additionally, this relationship will help MedeFile drive subscriber growth and in turn position our Company as the preferred solution provider to the healthcare industry," added Milton Hauser, Chairman and CEO of MedeFile.
