Alternate Health Signs Agreement with Medmen to Launch Statepass Beta in New York Dispensaries

SAN ANTONIO, TX, March 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ - Alternate Health Corp ("Alternate Health" or the "Company") (CSE:AHG) (OTCQB:AHGIF), an international corporation that provides software solutions for the medical cannabis industry, today announced that the Company has entered into a software-as-a-service agreement with MedMen, one of the largest cannabis companies in the U.S., to provide e-commerce and digital payment services. Alternate Health's StatePass system will begin beta testing with MedMen in their New York dispensaries.

"We are very pleased to be working with MedMen as Alternate Health expands into another key state in the U.S. market," said Dr. Michael Murphy, Chairman and CEO of Alternate Health.

The StatePass system is a cloud-based software platform that manages the end-to-end transactions involved in providing safe access to medical cannabis to eligible patients. The database is accessible by the patient, certified doctors and licensed dispensaries, linked through a seamless interface, and is used to monitor the individual patient and provide enhanced treatment recommendations, with a focus on improving patient outcomes.

"Alternate Health's agreement with MedMen is perfectly aligned with our goal of bringing best-in-class software solutions to the medical cannabis market," said Jay Briggs, Vice President of Operations of Alternate Health. "This is an exciting opportunity to work side-by-side with another leading company in the cannabis industry and open up new revenue streams in New York's tremendously promising market."
