Response to SEC Release No. 88620 – Temporary
Trading Suspension SOLI
Solei Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) was surprised
to receive a Notice of Temporary Trading Suspension (“Notice”) today from the SEC concerning statements the Company
made in a press release issued by the Company on March 16, 2020 (the “Press Release”) and a March 18, 2020 national
cable news program interview with the Company’s CEO (the “Interview”).
The foregoing is a summary of the Notice and is qualified
in its entirety by the Notice attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit 99.1.
The Company, after careful review, understand how the SEC
may have come to the conclusion that a temporary suspension was in the best interest of the public.
The Company is in the process of providing supporting documentation
to the SEC which shows the statements made by the Company in the Press Release and the Interview, though unclear, were correct.
Through our wholly owned subsidiary, CareClix Inc. (“CareClix”),
we are a telemedicine provider. As a telemedicine provider, we manage a nationwide multispecialty network of medical doctors who
are able to provide care through our telemedicine platform. CareClix does not sell, promote, nor have we ever sold COVID-19 kits.
We do not make any money from testing kits. We make money by providing patients with telemedicine access to doctors and also providing
our platform to a growing customer list of doctors, hospitals, clinics and employer groups.
As discussed in the Press Release, the Company made our telemedicine
services available to provide clinical screening to patients who were symptomatic, high priority, or high risk for the COVID-19
virus. We also made available to our providers a list of laboratories and testing facilities where patients can go to get testing,
and this included an FDA approved test that those laboratories could ship directly to home.
The Company initially chose to work with a lab that used
an FDA approved SARS-COV-2 Coronavirus test that met the FDA Emergency Use Authorization criteria. That lab is Next Molecular Analytics,
a 23-year-old laboratory certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA). We relied upon the following communication
from Next:
“We are pleased to announce NEXT is launching
an FDA approved SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus test for COVID-19 detection. This test meets the FDA Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) criteria
as it consists of the CDC developed RT-PCR assay. This EUA allows the assay to be performed in CLIA high complexity laboratories,
a classification that NEXT meets. NEXT has worked tirelessly over the past few weeks to obtain the assays and validate so that
we may perform testing for those patients that physicians feel meet the requirements for testing.”
Also, Melissa Russell - Director of Clinical Business Operations
said, “NEXT [Molecular] will be responsible for sending kits to patients overnight and for providing materials to overnight
those samples back to our facility for testing.”
In the March 16, 2020 press release and in the March
18, 2020 national cable news program interview, the Company made very clear statements that we are a telemedicine provider that
partnered with existing lab companies. We did not say we are a lab. The kits were for professional use only. Therefore, concerned
patients cannot just go to a lab to get a test if they feel they may need one. They must be evaluated by a qualified medical professional
licensed in their state. CareClix doctors provide medical screening and care via telemedicine for patients concerned with exposure
or symptoms associated with COVID-19.
Concerning the screening process:
When a patient contacts CareClix:
|
·
|
The patient enters patient information into patient
portal
|
|
·
|
Patient enters waiting room through browser, app
or phone
|
|
·
|
Patient receives consult by a CareClix doctor.
|
Every patient that comes to our medical group is
assessed through history and clinical evaluation of their symptoms, past medical history, past surgical history, medication history,
allergies, as well as any other relevant information before an assessment is determined
|
·
|
The doctor makes a clinical assessment and care plan
which may include laboratory and or pharmacy as needed for the patient.
|
|
·
|
Based on the patient’s preference, the doctor
offers either the ability to get FDA approved home testing or directs the patient to a local testing sites.
|
Telemedicine has been performed in
this same fashion since its inception for numerous medical conditions including its current usage for Covid19. This exact
same process is being used for other conditions including but not limited to upper respiratory infections, urinary tract
infections, pharyngitis, etc. Therefore, the above detailed process for managing Covid19 is the exact same process that every
telehealth provider in the world is using to deliver medical services and offer laboratory testing for their respective
patients.
For the foregoing reasons, the
Company believes that all statements made in the Press Release and the Interview are fully supported and were correct. We hope
that the SEC will recognize that, and will remove the temporary trading suspension. When we have received a response from the
SEC, the Company will update investors accordingly.
