HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., June 24, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Patient Access Solutions, Inc. (Pink Sheets:PASO), a leading provider of healthcare and financial processing solutions for the healthcare, homecare, and dental industries, announced today the launch of their new DPAS program into the $36 billion Veterinary Market.
According to the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association (APPMA), 88% of dog owners and 63% of cat owners took their pet to the veterinarian at least once in the past 12 months with an average of 2.8 visits per year. The new DPAS Veterinary digital pen solution will allow small or large-animal practices and mobile or emergency facilities to accurately and quickly document pet history and registration information using pen and paper and export all of the information seamlessly into the facility management system. The information then can be stored in the DPAS document management program for later retrieval. Because the DPAS system does not change the current workflow, veterinary facilities look at our program as being a user-friendly product that has both the depth and flexibility to accommodate the needs of the practice as it grows.
According to Bruce Weitzberg, CEO and President of Patient Access Solutions, "As more opportunities are presented to us for the DPAS digital pen solution, we will work with our team to accommodate the demand in these other industries. The key to our success in these vertical markets is having the ability to work closely with the client. Each day through our referral network, we are opening up many new outlets for our DPAS solution, and will drastically increase the opportunities to add significant revenue to the bottom line."
"Our innovative platforms can process all types of forms and store them in a data repository for easy access. This is what these industries are looking for and we provide one of the most cost effective ways to provide them this type of service."
