A revolutionary patent-pending technology that enables the integration of Medical Tourism with Health Insurance finds new home in Scotland.
Glasgow, Lanarkshire, October 2, 2009 – “Offsurance, Inc., a Delaware headquartered global healthcare company will now become a wholly owned subsidiary of Offsurance, Limited, a Scottish technology startup”, says a beaming CEO, Amir Bavi.
Mr. Bavi is visibly impressed about the future of his company “Scotland has the right mix that identifies winner organizations and provides vital support and entrepreneurial back up. A Scottish base presents an array of potential benefits to investors, stake holders as well as the company. We are now making the effort to go up two notches, with the fast track patent, as well as our application to be included within the realms of the Scottish Enterprise. We are confident this unique product will catch the attention of both.”
Dr. Rakesh Chandola, Managing Director, Offsurance shares the excitement. “Given the state of the US healthcare industry, given the spiraling insurance premiums and the corporate urge to control costs, Offsurance can perhaps be rightfully described as heaven sent.”
Paid entirely in stocks the deal is worth at least $2.9 million to the Delaware firm based on future revenues over a period of 5 years. At the same time the acquisition brings an estimated current net present value of over $27 million to Offsurance Ltd.
“The deal is a win-win for both the companies”, explaining his optimism Dr Fazal Raheman, the inventor of the patent pending technology emphasizes, that, “by combining forces we are one more step closer to realizing the full potential of the Offsurance technology in the soon to be $100 Billion Medical Tourism industry. The seasoned entrepreneurial leadership of Mr Bavi and Dr Chandola will now enable us to focus more on the product development.“
The reason behind the excitement of the Offsurance team is not difficult to decipher. The exponential growth in Medical Tourism is projected to reach $100 Billion by 2012. The current insurance based US healthcare system is not underwritten considering the MT option. This would change dramatically over the next few months. OFFSURANCE is the only patented B2B platform bringing all the stakeholders on one platform to globalize healthcare.
