Lifespan Inc. (Pink Sheets:LSPN) (www.lifespaninc.com) Lifespan announces that when Baby Boomers start turning 65 in 2011, approximately 8,000 Americans will become Medicare eligible every single day. The US currently has 37 million people over age 65, a figure the Census Bureau projects will hit 67 million by 2020 and 71.5 million by 2030 - nearly 20 percent of the U.S. population. At the same time, medical technology advances will continue to improve the survival rate of severely ill and injured patients, who then need home based health care, extensive therapy and nursing care.
Dr. Quyami the Company’s Chief Scientist and the Director of the nonprofit Centre of Excellence for Surgical Education & Innovation (www.cesei.org) stated that, “Technically advanced telemedicine based home healthcare is an extremely cost-effective, yet significantly underutilized health care option for seniors on Medicare.”
Additionally Dr. Quyami said, “In these times, it is crucially important that every taxpayer dollar is efficiently utilized. For basic health care, that means helping more Medicare patients receive the benefits of technically advanced home care systems, and online information and provider intervention, while expanding technical capacity to more economically accommodate their needs.”
Dr. William Blase is also adding his considerable expertise to the Lifespan Project by joining the Medical Advisory Board. Dr. Blase has had a distinguished career in all aspects of the medical profession, with a practice emphasis on Ophthalmology, a background in medical research, as well as administration and management issues of modern medical practice.
Dr. Blase is formerly the Chairman of the Department of Ophthalmology at the Hemet Valley Hospital and a Director of California Eye Care. Dr. Blase was also a Trustee for a California District Hospital System. Dr. Blase has also served eight years as a Trustee of the Valley Health System in Riverside California and was formerly the Chairman of the Board, as well as a Trustee of the Employee Health, Pension, and Retirement Funds.
Dr. Blase is also a Diplomate of the National Board of Medical Examiners, the American Board of Ophthalmology, and has published numerous articles and several book chapters.
