HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwire - June 16, 2009) - Bederra Corporation (PINKSHEETS: BEDA), a Houston, Texas based diversified medical services provider, recently announced the opening of a Medical Clinic at its Lumar Imaging facility under the name Reliant Medical Group that specializes in senior care.
After 4 weeks of operation the clinic is close to patient capacity with existing staff, facilities and equipment. This early success of the clinic is a positive indicator to Bederra management of the model's long-term profitability, and an encouraging benchmark for the company. Management announced that it intends to add staff and equipment to increase the number of patients that can be seen at the Reliant clinic in the Houston Medical Center. Additionally, Reliant Medical Group will expand visits to patients' homes in cases where some diagnostic tests can be performed remotely with data reported to primary and specialized care providers without necessary visits to the company's clinic. Both in-patient and visiting clinician services are integral to the company's clinical diagnostic services model.
All of the clinic's patients are Medicare patients and with the government devoting more resources to senior care the company plans to open several new locations over the next 12 months, bolstered by the performance of Reliant's first month of profitable operation.
Based on the first month of operation, the company expects the clinic to generate annual gross revenues of $3-4 million.
