HORSHAM, Pa., April 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- National Health Partners, Inc. (National Health) (OTCBB: NHPR), a leading provider of discount healthcare membership programs, announced today that it has signed a new agreement with a major marketing company that will significantly enhance the growth of its CARExpress membership base.

This is the second major signing for the company in the last few weeks. This deal, in combination with the partnership that was announced a few weeks ago, will enable the company to build its membership base exponentially, initially generating in excess of an additional 2,000 new members per month. The new campaign is set to launch within the next few weeks and will provide a material positive impact on the company's 2nd quarter sales.

"I am very excited about the new signings that we have achieved over the past few weeks," stated David M. Daniels, National Health Partners' President and CEO. ""We anticipate that this new marketing agreement will provide a major impact on our overall sales not only for the 2nd quarter, but more importantly for the year. We look forward to building on the profits that we anticipate generating in 2011 that will be driven by substantial growth in sales of our CARExpress health discount programs. The combination of our substantial growth with our low price-to-equity ratio should reflect itself in the price of our stock over the coming months."
