TORONTO, Feb. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Skylight Health Group Inc. (TSXV:SLHG; OTCQX:SLHGF) (“Skylight Health” or the “Company”) today announced the closure of Rocky Mountain Health Care clinics in Colorado (“Rocky Mountain Group”) as part of its continued effort to streamline its business and aggressively cut costs to preserve cash.

“We have come to realize that we need to shed all of our loss-making businesses immediately to preserve the strong core business operating out of Florida,” said Prad Sekar, CEO and Co-Founder of Skylight Health Group. “In order to survive during the difficult capital market environment, we have put an emphasis on generating positive cash flow and working to reduce liabilities. This will be a difficult process, but our team is determined to do what it takes to ensure we remain solvent with a view to focus our energy on our strong core value-based care business.”

About Skylight Health Group 

Skylight Health Group (TSXV:SLHG: OTCQX:SLHGF) is a healthcare services and technology company, working to positively impact patient health outcomes. The Company operates a US multi-state primary care health network comprised of physical practices providing a range of services from primary care, sub-specialty, allied health, and laboratory/diagnostic testing. The Company is focused on helping small and independent practices shift from a traditional fee-for-service (FFS) model to value-based care (VBC) through tools including proprietary technology, data analytics and infrastructure. In an FFS model, payors (commercial and government insurers) reimburse on an encounter-based approach. This puts a focus on volume of patients per day. In a VBC model, the providers offer care that is aimed at keeping patients healthy and minimize unnecessary health expenditures that are not proven to maintain the patient’s well-being. This places an emphasis on quality over volume. VBC will lead to improved patient outcomes, reduced cost of delivery and drive stronger financial performance from existing practices.
