Corporate Profile

Neurotech Development Corporation is an international, single-source designer, developer and builder of pre-engineered, rapid deployment hospitals, medical clinics, and health care facilities.  Neurotech provides requisite primary health care products and services to its client countries.  The development and operation of these facilities are supported by the Company's "Neurotech HealthCare System©". Internet and proprietary Intranet architecture provide global medical and health care connectivity. Neurotech's current backlog is $1,514,000,000 for health care facilities, schools and services from two principal client countries, China and Indonesia.

USA standards of medical technology, diagnostics, physician and health care personnel training, computers, telephony, and resource management software systems provide turn-key health care facilities that meet and exceed Neurotech's client countries', national health care requirements. Client countries' health care personnel are trained at USA based medical teaching universities in diagnostics, health care management, and facilities operation and administration. When training is complete, client countries' heath care personnel are qualified to manage and operate Neurotech's "turn-key" medical facilities.

China:  According to new strategic research (F&S Report) conducted by Frost & Sullivan, "Chinese Diagnostic Product Markets"... "the Chinese market is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 16.3% from 1999 through 2005. The vast Chinese population, a large portion of which is aging, will spur demand for diagnostic products". The Frost & Sullivan report adds, "the establishment of new hospitals and nursing homes catering to the growing health care needs of the Chinese, will further this demand. Health care reforms will bolster market…Chinese health care reform programs will establish more hospitals and nursing homes ".

Chinese leaders must deal with a rising gray tide, states that, “some 126 million Chinese, or one out of 10 people, are aged 60 or older (largest elderly population in the world).  By 2030, caring for a projected 300 million elderly could consume 10% of China’s national income.  Policies are being drafted to encourage growth of a geriatric care industry.”  Neurotech Development’s $30,000,000 USD dollar geriatric facility, under contract in Southern Guandong, cited in the article, portends enormous supply opportunities for the Company in this health care, market segment.

The Neurotech HealthCare System©

Neurotech Development completed final development of its proprietary rapid deployment managed health care system after four years of prototyping, modeling, and successful operational trials. The Company's production ready, proprietary System through computers and telephony, will link client countries' health care facilities with USA and other internationally based hospitals, universities, medical research institutions, medical organizations, physician referral services, medical journals and libraries, laboratories, professional medical and business societies, associations, institutes and organizations, providing global Internet and Intranet connectivity.

Year 2001 Building & Development

For latest developments, please refer to the Neurotech Development Corporation Asia News Update page.

Indonesia: The company currently holds $100,000,000 in bank guarantees from its clients in Indonesia.  Current economic instability of the financial institutions and government may prevent the company from starting the planned construction of these facilities in October 2001 upon maturity of the bank guarantees. The company will closely monitor the situation, and communications remain close.  Geological and site analysis for five hospitals have been completed. The Company intends to build and complete six hospitals once construction begins.

China: The Company has orders for hospitals and health care facilities totaling USD $635,000,000. Construction of Neurotech health care facilities is scheduled to start in November of 2000. Neurotech estimates this project's completion sometime in late 2003.

Investment, Acquisitions and Business Development

Neurotech has acquired 12.5% of American International Medical Resources, Inc. (AIM), and intends to complete the acquisition, which includes Residential Health Care, Inc. (RHC).

Residential Health Care provides health care containment services offering utilization review, pre-certification, concurrent review, retro-review, discharge planning, and large case management to approximately 200 customers. RHC's customers are insurance companies, third party administrators, self-insured employers, and other health care purchasing groups. Connected to RHC are 300,000 USA Physicians/MD's, 3600 acute care hospitals, and 22,600 ancillary service facilities, including medical research, universities and interconnected supporting medical record and information databases.

When the acquisition of AIM is completed, and AIM completes the RHC acquisition, Neurotech will incorporate AIM's/RHC's databases, customers, vendors, and other associated product and service providers into its Neurotech HealthCare System©. Neurotech will leverage this core base to develop and expand its products and services offerings.

Doctors4Doctors.net: Neurotech which owns the "Doctors4Doctors.net" and "Doctors4Doctors.org" domain names is developing an Internet and Intranet portal that will provide the electronic architecture for its USA based and overseas Physicians' connectivity to the "Neurotech HealthCare System©".  Physicians and health care professionals, practicing in industrializing and developing countries, that have been geographically and technologically limited in improving their health care practices and modalities, will now be able to significantly advance their standards utilizing the Doctors4Doctors.net© on-line tele-medicine services providing on-line video conferencing, supplies and equipment, diagnostics, physician referrals, pharmacological data and information, surgical procedure training, disease research, treatment case studies, and continuing education courses.

Neurotech Development Corporation expects the intended combination of AIM and Doctors4Doctors will produce significant, increasing, recurring revenues.

If a stock I like breaks out, I have been watching it and seeing if it pulls back and how it acts, then I might get in, but I see too many breakouts fail lately to get in on the initial breakout. (like I said a couple months ago, you could make more money shorting breakouts than buying them) Interesting industry grouping....
