The Two Pioneering Healthcare Brands Map a New Care Journey to Bridge Gaps in the Existing Healthcare System – Aiming to Eliminate Pain Points in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Conditions
March 12, 2024 – New York NY - Sollis Health, the first concierge provider to offer its members ER level diagnostics and care, and Prenuvo, the company pioneering proactive whole-body MRI imaging for early cancer detection and other diseases, today announced their partnership to offer new Sollis members an opportunity for early detection and coordinated care for conditions like cancer, aneurysms, and other diseases. This first-of-its-kind model combines access to Prenuvo's safe (no radiation), fast (diagnostic-quality imaging in less than an hour), and non-invasive (no harmful contrast) MRI scans with Sollis’s coveted concierge treatment, via an annual membership for 24/7, 365 urgent and emergency care at its state-of-art medical centers in New York, the Hamptons, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and South Florida. Sollis memberships offer access to unlimited consultations in-center and virtually, as well as expedited access to thousands of Sollis’s top specialist partners on speed dial.
“This partnership is driven by a shared mission to create transformational change in the healthcare system – to give patients more agency over their health and wellbeing, and more access to the right care when they need it most” said Andrew Lacy, Prenuvo CEO and founder.
Research indicates up to 50% of acute health issues are discovered in emergency room settings, and at critical stages, exposing a significant gap within the care continuum,[1] and a significant opportunity for Sollis and Prenuvo together to keep members out of the ER. The Sollis and Prenuvo partnership is set to transform care delivery by seamlessly integrating care coordination and specialist triage with proactive screening – which can lead to earlier interventions. This proactive approach can markedly improve recovery chances in both potentially identifying conditions before they become crises, as well as providing immediate emergent recourse when required.
Brad Olson, CEO of Sollis Health, echoed Lacy’s enthusiasm for the partnership: “By integrating Sollis’ expertise in care coordination and world-class urgent and emergency care with Prenuvo's cutting-edge diagnostics, we're not just setting a new standard–we're filling a critical gap in the care continuum. Together, we will not only improve outcomes in areas traditionally associated with poor prognosis, but also lead the industry with this more proactive and outcome-oriented healthcare model.”
Each new Sollis Health membership will now include the Sollis Health x Prenuvo Benefits, and prompt access to appointments for a complimentary Prenuvo MRI scan. Members will have access to continuous support throughout their healthcare journey from receiving Prenuvo's comprehensive assessments to coordination with the Sollis team and members’ primary care physicians. This integrated approach offers continuous support – a rarity not only in acute care, but for anyone looking for handheld attention through any health issue.
The Sollis x Prenuvo Benefits integration includes:
● Access to a complimentary Prenuvo Torso scan or a discounted upgrade to a Head & Torso or Whole Body scan, representing a total savings of at least $1,000
● Timely access to scan appointments
● Comprehensive care coordination by Sollis Health, from priority booking for the Prenuvo scan through any necessary appointment follow-ups, and access to necessary specialists from Sollis’s extensive network.
● A year of unlimited 24/7, 365 access to Sollis concierge, members-only medical centers, on demand virtual consultations, routine lab work, urgent and emergency care from Sollis’s ER board-certified physicians, and connections to a network of leading specialists to address concerns that arise from their preventative assessment.
