SK3 Group, Inc. (PINK SHEETS: SKTO) has signed a definitive
agreement with Healthcare of Today to acquire Premiere Medical
Travel Corporation (www.premieremedicaltravel.com), a medical
tourism consulting firm.
Premiere Medical Travel ("Premiere") provides foreign
governments, high quality international health centers, and global
healthcare facilitators with targeted industry research services,
analysis, consultation, and insight into the mind of medical travel
consumers in the US market. Industry analysts forecast that, by
2014, the global spend in Medical Tourism will exceed $14 Billion.
These figures were recently validated in a PMTC proprietary
research project. The study revealed that 47% of US consumers
responded positively when asked if they would consider traveling
internationally for healthcare services.
Premiere's unique consumer-oriented approach builds upon
proprietary research to enable established organizations to develop
comprehensive messaging strategies and reach consumers directly to
increase awareness of their medical services. Moving away from
insurance-centricity, Premiere's model allows clients to accurately
align their products and services with consumer demand, using
predictive models and quantifiable analysis to bring a more
systematic approach to their business growth strategy.
Marc LeShay, President of Premiere Medical Travel Corporation
says, "Medical Tourism is a modern healthcare reality; we
(Premiere) are very proud to be positioned to add this piece of the
puzzle to Healthcare of Today. Conversely, their vertically
integrated healthcare system represents an enormous resource that
Premiere is excited to offer to our clients. The possibilities are
endless."
Premiere's leadership features an elite team of professionals,
representing US healthcare, Fortune 500 corporations, and academic
institutions. Premiere's services provide the client with
unparalleled insight into their opportunities within the medical
tourism market while providing US healthcare consumers with
groundbreaking medical care and expanded choices. Premiere is the
latest addition to Healthcare of Today's services portfolio. SK3
Group and parent company Healthcare of Today have announced that
SK3 Group will serve as the healthcare services, facilities,
education and health plan holding portfolio for Healthcare of
Today. SK3 Group recently applied to change its name to Healthcare
of Today Services, pending FINRA approval.
Healthcare of Today CEO Henry Jan says, "We look forward to
supporting the work Premiere is doing to create a more efficient
global healthcare marketplace, and we will benefit from their
executives' insight into the international dynamics of the
healthcare market to help us determine how we can best provide for
patients here and around the world."
