FUSE MEDICAL, INC. ENTERS INTO MARKETING AGREEMENT WITH CAREPICS TELEHEALTH
RICHARDSON, TX, January 14, 2021 /Businesswire/ -- Fuse Medical, Inc. (OTCPINK: FZMD) (“Fuse” or the “Company”) an emerging manufacturer and distributor of innovative medical devices for the orthopedic and spine marketplace, announced today an agreement with CarePICS, the latest resource addition to Fuse’s comprehensive portfolio and biologics product offerings for wound care.
CarePICS is a HIPAA compliant, app-based telehealth platform designed specifically to perform and track reimbursable events around wound care. CarePICS helps to facilitate specialty consults between physicians, telehealth visits with patients, and clinical reports with images, and to automate reimbursable medical supply ordering. CarePICS features a wound measurement tool which automatically calculates surface area, length and width, without even touching the patient.
“Considering the challenges providers are facing to maintain safe patient consults and exams, we feel that telemedicine is here to stay. CarePICS is a resource that can help doctors overcome those safety issues and provide reimbursement intelligence. We are excited to be a part of the CarePICS Pathways Program.” commented Christopher C. Reeg, Chief Executive Officer of Fuse. “In today’s uncertain climate surrounding the pandemic, the availability of this technology will present providers with advanced options for treatment of their patients requiring wound care products and services.”
Paul Schubert, Chief Executive Officer of CarePICS commented, “Our solution is a population health management tool designed to facilitate care….not just data collection. Vascular disease is an insidious condition that adversely affects patients’ quality and duration of life in addition to costing untold billions of dollars in healthcare resources due to poor screening and identification processes.“
Reeg further stated, “We are delighted to expand our product portfolio and national footprint with the addition of CarePICS to the Fuse family of offerings. Our priority remains, to provide effective solutions for today’s clinical challenges, and assist with improving patient outcomes.
