-- Progressive
Care Inc. (OTCQB:
RXMD)
("Progressive
Care" or the "Company"), a personalized healthcare
services and technology company, is very excited to announce the
promotion and appointment of Birute Norkute as Chief Operating Officer
("COO") of Progressive
Care.
"Birute has been instrumental in
every achievement PharmCo has had since its inception,"
commented S. Parikh Mars, CEO of Progressive Care.
"Her
accomplishments to date have been stellar, and we see
her
unique and
expansive skill set as invaluable in this new
role given both our current needs and opportunities and the vision
we have for the Company going forward. We are proud to promote
diversity,
and we welcome Ms.
Norkute
to the
C-Suite quite simply because she
is the
single best person for the job."
Birute
Norkute
has been a key
part of the PharmCo team since 2008 and has been
leading PharmCo operations since 2013. She
stands out as the driving force behind a number of critical
accomplishments. As the chief
architect
of the
operational model for ensuring medication
adherence, she
successfully produced the
Company's
consistent 5-star performance ratings in
pharmacy dispensing and medication therapy management.
She has
controlled budgetary compliance for PharmCo locations leading to
efficiencies often superior to automated systems. She manages all
IT infrastructure at the Company to ensure current protocols are in
place for HIPAA compliance and technological efficiency. She has
lead sales teams in the field and currently leads all operational
staff at all pharmacy locations.
In
addition, Norkute has been the point person for all
credentialing and contracting for all pharmacies and
currently
manages
compliance and audit submissions.
Mars continued,
"Birute's leadership in
pharmacy
credentialing,
contracting, and compliance has resulted in all of our
state licenses, our good standing with all PBMs
and payors, our stellar audit
performance (audit recoupments
currently
amount to less
than 0.001% of
revenues), and our top-tier national
performance
ratings, which have yielded maximum
bonus payments on multiple occasions. In short,
Birute
is a rock star
coming into this role."
