LataMed AI Corp. (OTC: LMED), a development-stage digital health and artificial intelligence technology company, announced today that its Venezuelan operating affiliate has entered into a strategic commercial alliance with CANTV, a state-run telecommunications provider in Venezuela. The partnership is intended to expand access to digital healthcare services by integrating the LataMed AI mobile application and selected healthcare solutions into CANTV's product and service offerings.
Under the agreement, the companies plan to collaborate on making technology-enabled healthcare more accessible to Venezuelan citizens through web-based platforms, mobile technologies, and appointment coordination tools. Management believes this alliance represents a significant milestone in building an integrated healthcare ecosystem for emerging markets.
“This alliance represents another meaningful step in the continued development of our healthcare ecosystem,” said Dr. Kevin Rodan Levy, CEO of LataMed AI Corp. “We believe improving access to healthcare begins with improving access to technology. Working alongside an established telecommunications provider provides an opportunity to expand the reach of our digital healthcare platform.”
CANTV operates one of the largest telecommunications networks in Venezuela, and the alliance is expected to support broader awareness of the LataMed AI platform while increasing accessibility for patients, healthcare providers, and other stakeholders. The Company anticipates implementation will occur in phases and plans to provide updates on deployment milestones.
The partnership aligns with LataMed AI's broader strategy of integrating telehealth infrastructure, healthcare coordination, pharmacy initiatives, insurance accessibility, digital payment solutions, and AI-driven services into a unified ecosystem tailored for emerging markets. By leveraging CANTV's established infrastructure, LataMed AI aims to overcome barriers to healthcare access in the region.
The announcement comes as Venezuela continues to face challenges in healthcare delivery, exacerbated by recent events including an earthquake that affected many communities. LataMed AI extended its thoughts to those impacted and expressed gratitude to emergency responders and healthcare professionals working on the ground.
