Visual Management Systems, Inc. (OTCBB/exchange>: VMSY), a leading developer, manufacturer and provider of video surveillance technologies, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a dealer agreement with High Tech Innovations, a leader in technology infrastructure for the healthcare industry. The agreement calls for High Tech Innovations to distribute the VMS product line, including the company's flagship product, the TrueHybrid©, as well as its newest product line, the Conversation Station, throughout its dental and medical distribution network, including dental software management companies, radiology and imaging companies as well as private and group practice general dentistry and general medical practitioners.
As part of this agreement, VMS will provide private labeled surveillance-specific products for High Tech's distribution. In addition, the parties will work together to develop a medical-specific product for the Conversation Station including live, remote consultation to prosthetic production labs as well as interoffice communications and virtual patient-provider consultation.
Jason Gonzalez, President and CEO of Visual Management Systems, stated, "The medical vertical is a logical new market for us and fits directly into our distribution and dealership platform. The market for security and surveillance technology products in the medical, dental and surgical fields is very important because of the expensive equipment, narcotics and general liability facing health care providers. The fact that our products provide an affordable solution for health care integrators to offer to their customers makes this a win-win opportunity for all of the parties to see immediate returns in services, security and revenue."
High Tech Innovations was founded in 1997 by the company's CEO Javed Uddin to serve critical back office needs of the dental and medical communities. High Tech's President, Jeffrey Weiss, also serves as the President of the National Dental Integrators Association. VMS has already begun integration of its TrueHybrid© system at dental offices that are part of High Tech Innovations network.
"We are very excited to be partnering with VMS and rolling out their products to our existing client base. The relationship will also help us by giving us a new strategy to build new clients. Being in the healthcare space, security and video surveillance is a huge market right now, and we are always looking to expand our portfolio of value-added products and services to our valued customers," commented Javed Uddin, CEO and Founder.
"Safeguarding our most valuable resources is absolutely vital to the security and peace of mind of my practice, my staff and my patients. The TrueHybrid has been indispensible in ensuring that not only our equipment is secure, but it also helps us monitor the safety of critical data and patient files. Not only do we use the TrueHybrid to monitor the security of our resources, it also helps us to improve employee and practice efficiencies and safeguard us from potentially frivolous claims. I would never consider operating my practice without the TrueHybrid. The ROI we are generating from the system can be calculated not only in dollars, but in terms of the intangible benefit of 'peace of mind,'" stated Dr. Konstantine Trichas, Owner of First Mountain Dental Group in Montclair, NJ.
