09:25 AM EST - Quipt Home Medical Corp. : Announced the execution of a national insurance contract with a top five health insurer in the United States. “The execution of this national insurance contract with the largest commercial payer in the United States is a major milestone for Quipt and serves as a further accelerant to our ambitious long term growth plans. The national contract is expected to be meaningful as we continue to expand into new states, broadening our operating footprint over a much wider geography. When we make an acquisition, we will be able to immediately leverage the national contract, which is extremely powerful in terms of capturing as many eligible patients as possible,” said Greg Crawford, Chairman and CEO of Quipt. “Moreover, we feel there's still a lot of opportunity for us to go after more national contracts, which would provide the opportunity to add additional payers, and we will continue to work with other large commercial payers to help them better understand our strong patient centric model and the benefits to patients and payors alike. The new national insurance contract, extremely favorable demographics, and our robust operating platform, put us in an industry leading position to provide high touch at home clinical respiratory services throughout the country.” Quipt Home Medical Corp.
