Move Health Holdings Corp. Announces Strategic Acquisition of Lyte Medical, a National Telehealth Company
Move Health has finalized all terms to acquire Lyte Medical, a leading national telehealth company, closing as of December 31st, 2023.
Lyte offers virtual primary healthcare services from the comfort of home or office staffed by licensed medical doctors and nurse practitioners. Whether acute, chronic, or routine care, mental health services or specialist referrals, Lyte’s telehealth practitioners are patient-centric and focused on improving health outcomes. Through Lyte Medical’s comprehensive platform, patients benefit from nearly all the same services as traditional in-person visits, including symptoms, current medication reviews, lab results, and prescription management. The convenience and flexibility of using Lyte’s telehealth platform from a mobile device, PC or tablet eliminates wait times and commutes while ensuring personal attention.
“At the beginning of 2020, we entered into an exclusive strategic partnership with Lyte Medical to provide our patients with 24/7 services,” said Gary Prihar, CEO & Co-Founder, Move Health Holdings Corp. “It was not only an important extension to our commitment to comprehensive and exceptional patient care, but it was incredibly timely and fortuitous given the onset of the global pandemic in March 2020. Over the last few years, our partnership has grown to help thousands of Canadians access primary and allied health services. It was a natural fit to combine our organizations to accelerate seamless, accessible, and holistic healthcare,” concluded Prihar.
“We are thrilled to evolve our strategic partnership and become part of Move Health’s group of companies,” said Lyte Medical CEO Greg Benson. “Our telehealth practitioners and platform address all the pain points in healthcare delivery – appointment wait times that can stretch over weeks or even months, arranging time off work, commuting to the appointment, etc., for often a rushed few minutes with a doctor and then perhaps a separate trip to a pharmacy for a prescription. Canadians deserve human-centric and professional care and the ability to access in-person or virtually, whatever is most convenient for them. That’s what Move Health and Lyte offer together.”
This accretive acquisition will contribute topline revenue of $1.4M with gross margins of 49% to Move Health. Upon completion, Lyte will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Move Health, with Greg Benson continuing his role as Lyte Medical CEO.
“Earlier this year, the Canadian Medical Association Journal reported that ‘more than one in five Canadians - 6.5 million – do not have a family physician or nurse practitioner they see regularly,’” cited Prihar. “Together, we will empower more Canadians to access the care they need and deserve while helping to reduce the strain on our healthcare system.”
