Ortivus signs contract with partner in the Netherlands

Ortivus has signed a distribution agreement with RS TechMedic B.V. for the Netherlands. RS TechMedic B.V., founded in 1999, has a solid background in medical device development, Healthcare IT solutions and wireless data transfer applications, as well as clinical knowledge and experience from the cardiology field.

RS TechMedic will be the Dutch market channel for MobiMed (clinical decision support systems for pre-hospital care) and the cardiac monitoring system CoroNet. ”We are looking forward to launching Ortivus’ products in the Netherlands. I believe that flexible product offerings and cooperation with national insurance companies and financing companies will create good business opportunities in the Netherlands for both MobiMed and CoroNet “, says Rutger Brest van Kempen, CEO of RS TechMedic. “The concept of the Ortivus product lines is based on the most recent data transfer techniques on the market and is developed to support processes. Combined with our own knowledge of healthcare processes and our expertise in GSM, GPRS and 3G, we have a solid ground for a successful cooperation”, adds Sander Huntelerslag, Director Technical Division. Signing a partner in the Netherlands is in line with Ortivus’ strategy to establish sales channels on key markets in Europe. The Netherlands is an especially interesting market for Ortivus since the country currently is starting up projects aiming at streamlining healthcare processes. The introduction of a national Electronic Patient Record and other possible forms of electronic communication in the healthcare sector are some of the issues at stake. “With a medically trained sales force, strong customer relations and an experienced support team I am convinced that RS TechMedic will represent Ortivus very well throughout the Netherlands”, says Rain Eriksoo VP Sales and Marketing, Ortivus AB.
