Toronto, ON – September 4, 2018 — PRESS RELEASE — Liberty Health Sciences Inc., a provider of trusted, high quality cannabis experiences, has announced that it has received approval by the Florida Department of Health to implement FlorPass as the state’s first online patient management system, connecting patients, physicians and cannabis retailers in one system to provide enhanced care.
FlorPass is developed by Alternate Health Corp., an international corporation that provides software solutions for the medical cannabis industry. FlorPass is the Florida equivalent of Alternate Health’s CanaPass Cannabis Compliance technology, which is currently operational nationwide in Canada.
“Liberty is transforming the way it provides its customer-centric services by being the first in Florida to provide FlorPass, the best in class, secure online shopping experience for our superior cannabis products,” said George Scorsis, CEO of Liberty Health Sciences. “This is not only a functional way to do transactions; this is a transformation in how Liberty will build stronger relationships with our patients by really understanding how they are using our products and as a result, ensuring that they are provided with the most beneficial and optimal offerings and experiences.”
Liberty and Alternate Health were granted approval by the Florida Department of Health to implement FlorPass as the state’s first online shopping portal for medical cannabis equipped with a digital transaction system. Patients will now have the ability to browse medical cannabis products, make purchases and arrange delivery through the FlorPass secure online portal. FlorPass is the patient management software of choice for many of the state’s leading cannabis clinics and physicians, representing nearly 6,000 medical cannabis patients. This represents five percent of the current patient population in the rapidly growing Florida market.
“FlorPass has received tremendous response from our physician partners in Florida and we are pleased to be working with Liberty to bring new and innovative solutions to our rapidly expanding patient population,” says Dr. Michael Murphy, chairman and CEO of Alternate Health. “Our team has developed a truly unique system and, through the agreement with Liberty, we are positioned for excellent growth in the Florida market.”
FlorPass is a software platform that manages the end-to-end transactions involved in providing safe access to medical cannabis to eligible patients. The system is accessible by the patient, certified doctors, and licensed dispensaries, linked through a seamless interface, and is used to facilitate online purchases of medical cannabis and provide enhanced medical treatment recommendations, with a focus on improving patient outcomes.
