Information About Med-Emerg Inc.

     

Meeting healthcare challenges for over 20 years

Based in Ontario, Canada, Med Emerg International Inc (“MEII”) is an established health care solutions provider. Founded in 1983, initially to provide contract staffing of emergency room physicians and nurses, the Company has expanded to offer a wide variety of healthcare staffing solutions and medical services to governments, communities and facilities across Canada.

In these times, with the Canadian Healthcare system facing continuous challenges on several fronts, opportunities exist for a company like MEII to deliver innovative solutions within the confines of the Canada Health Act. Demand for more complex services from an ageing population, the capital and human resource requirements of new lifesaving technology and the need to retrofit existing ageing facilities all place strain on the system. The situation is exacerbated by burn-out in the workplace caused by declining enrolments in health professions and increased levels of retirement by the existing practitioners. The increasing severity of the condition now manifests itself in daily headlines announcing long waiting lists for elective surgery, shortages of family physicians and the governments struggle to keep pace with the ever increasing costs of a publicly funded, universally available healthcare system.

The Company currently employs staff covering 26 categories of healthcare professionals including physicians, dentists, pharmacists and nurses.

As a healthcare solutions provider, MEII in addition to its staffing business provides medical services such as chronic pain management and intravenous infusion services for pharmaceutical companies in conveniently located community-based clinics.

As a result of its many years of healthcare experience, MEII has developed comprehensive understanding of primary care renewal, project evaluation, and healthcare human resource planning.

The recent equity investment from a group of Canadian and International investors provides MEII with an international recruiting presence and capability in addition to its Canadian healthcare operations.

The Company's operations are divided into four units: Staffing Solutions, Medical Services, Government Healthcare Services and Healthcare Consulting Services.

Further information about the company can be found in the News and Investor sections of the website.
