Cytta Negotiates Native American Healthcare Initiative

Bellevue, WA, March 02, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bellevue, WA, March 2nd, 2017 --Cytta Corp. (OTCPINK:CYCA)

Cytta is pleased announce that it is in the final stages of consummating a business development alliance with long standing Native American government systems integrator, Yona Systems Group Inc.  Yona will be implementing Cytta’s VeriSmartPhone™ based remote medical monitoring EvrCare™ technology as a foundational component within Yona’s Native American Health Initiative (NAHI) which includes participation by the US Government and select technology providers.

Mr. Jim Metcalf, President of Yona said, “We see an excellent immediate 'fit' within our positioning at the Department of Interior, and the Department of Health and Human Services as focused within the Indian Health Service. There are 160+ existing hospitals, and remote clinics, which need more than hospital information systems.  They need enhanced patient outreach resources and Cytta provides a vital component of our integrated offering.”

NAHI will be implemented via Yona Medical Systems, led by Dan Retter, who is also CEO of Yona Systems Group. He noted, “We recognize the ‘extra hardships’ faced by Native American patients who must travel long distances to receive monitoring of vital signs such as blood pressure, pulse, oxygen levels and blood glucose. We believe that patient Quality of Service will be greatly enhanced by the Cytta/Doctor Directed technology implemented on smart phones. Patients and their Health care team will receive more timely and actionable patient information with much less patient travel.”

Yona has a unique 'Dual Designation" of being Certified by the Small Business Administration as a minority-owned, '8a'-Native American U.S. Government Systems Integrator. Yona also is designated, under the Buy Indian Act, as being an ISBEE (Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise).

Mr. Jerry Smith, Co-CEO of Cytta stated, “Yona’s unique combination of designations is relatively rare and provides multiple exciting opportunities to utilize the Cytta VeriSmartPhone™ based technology and the EvrCare™ platforms to significantly improve healthcare services within the Native American community.”

Currently 229 of the 566 reserations spread across the nation are in remote areas only accessible by airplane or boat. Seeing a doctor for one visit, let alone a follow-up, therefore becomes inconvenient and costly.  The Cytta/Doctor Direct remote monitoring mobile technology can bring modern medical care, supervised by a healthcare professional, to all rural communities, without the necessity of travelling miles to a clinic or physician’s office.
