OUR PROFILE CORE VALUE PROPOSITION MEDEVAQ inc. is an internationally respected healthcare company creating high quality “patient-centric” healthcare systems, building private and public partnerships, and using technology for international cooperation in Healthcare delivery. MEDEVAQ BACKGROUND MEDEVAQ is a privately held Canadian company that was founded by Dr. Edward Wasser in 1990. Dr. Wasser’s vast experience in both pre-hospital and hospital based healthcare system design and development has made Dr. Wasser and his team amongst the most sought after healthcare system developers internationally. MEDEVAQ has consulted for industry and governments in North America, South America, Asia, and the Middle East. MEDEVAQ ACCESS™ Program With the ailing healthcare system in Canada, long waiting lists for specialized testing and procedures (e.g. MRI, cancer care, bypass surgery, etc.), and increasingly frustrated Canadians and healthcare providers, MEDEVAQ was amongst the first Canadian entities to offer rapid access to expert second opinion without leaving home and access to services in the United States and overseas for high quality medical services. MEDEVAQ has been coordinating high level care and access to America’s Centers of Excellence (Mayo Clinic, Sloan Ketering, MD Anderson, Johns Hopkins) since 1991, an area that has positioned MEDEVAQ as a leading private healthcare provider. In 1998 MEDEVAQ was awarded the exclusive mandate to co-develop and service the first U.S. Access insurance program (“First in Line”) created by Western Life Insurance (Previously Federated Insurance, a division of Fairfax Financial). CORPORATE HEALTHCARE Since the early 1990’s, North America’s Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 corporations and professionals have been using MEDEVAQ’s services to ensure the health and safety for their top management and key employees while based in Canada and overseas. Rapid access to second opinion using North America’s best practitioners to provide expert opinion, consultation, and follow-up has made MEDEVAQ a true pioneer and the leader in its field. EMERGENCY HEALTH SERVICES MEDEVAQ was conceived in 1990 as an Emergency Medical System (EMS) consulting firm that developed and designed First-Responder programs, EMS systems, and coordinated the repatriation of the sick and injured back to North America using advanced life support and air ambulance services. Dr. Wasser’s background as a Paramedic and Emergency Medicine Physician at a University of Toronto teaching hospital enabled MEDEVAQ to draw on Canada’s finest physicians, paramedics, and nurses to develop a highly qualified and respected EMS consulting and provider group. As the doors began to open in Mainland China in the early 1990’s, MEDEVAQ was an invited guest of the Central Government of Mainland China in a private-public initiative to launch the first regional trauma center in Mainland China. The nineteen story modern trauma centre services 10 Million residents regionally and is situated in the economic development area and port city of Tien Jin. MEDEVAQ was chosen again in 2004 to design and develop the facilities and business services for two private hospital projects in Harbin and Chongqing China which is the major port of the upper Yangzi River, the gateway to the “Three Gorges” and home to 30 million people. MEDEVAQ has been the exclusive provider of choice for Viacom Paramount Canada’s Wonderland amusement park, providing all aspects of emergency care and training for advanced medical team servicing the thirty thousand to fifty thousand daily visitors. MEDEVAQ has designed the infrastructure and educational & support systems for some of Canada’s leading advanced life support programs including the Prime Minister of Canada’s Personal Security Detail of the RCMP, the Ontario Lotteries & Gaming Corporation 24 facilities covering 415,000 square miles of territory, the Candian Coast Guard, and the world’s oldest and most established training organization St. John Ambulance. These satisfied clients have come to recognize MEDEVAQ as an organization they can depend on for expertise and accessibility in order to support their needs and systems. TELEMEDICINE MEDEVAQ has developed the reputation as an early adopter of technology in the advancement of healthcare delivery. MEDEVAQ is committed to telehealth initiatives in North America and abroad and has demonstrated its ability to leverage off technology’s efficiencies while maintaining cost containment.
