TAMPA, Fla., June 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Advanzeon Solutions, Inc. (OTC:BB: CHCR), ("Advanzeon" or the "Company") announced today that it has expanded its Nevada Behavioral Health Program by entering into an agreement with Southwest Autism & Behavioral Solutions to provide autism and behavioral health services to individuals diagnosed with Autism and Autism Spectrum Disorders.
Jerry Smith, Advanzeon's Chief Operating Officer, stated, "Having received a number of requests to expand our Behavioral Health Program in the State of Nevada to include autism and autism spectrum disorders, we are delighted to have reached an agreement with Southwest Autism & Behavioral Health Solutions ("Southwest Autism") to provide these much needed services. Southwest Autism is a recognized leader in the field and an entity that shares our view of the great need to address this national problem. Autism disorder has now reached epidemic proportions, not only in Nevada, but nationally. According to the CDC, approximately 3.5 million Americans live with this disorder and an estimated 1 in 68 births are autism suspect. The Company has a keen interest in including the specially-designed autism component as part of our Behavioral Health Program, having done so in the past and having over 15 years experience in this space. We are uniquely qualified to implement such a program, not only in the State of Nevada, but throughout the U.S., on an as-needed basis. Having such a program naturally enhances the value of our overall Behavioral Health Program and, we believe, makes us even more attractive to our existing and potential clients."
Mr. Smith went on to say, "I, personally, have a vast amount of experience in this area, as well, and will personally be overseeing the further development and implementation of the Company's program. We expect to implement the autism program in Nevada within the next thirty days."
