ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

New Corporate Oncology Account with Icon Group

ImpediMed Limited (ASX.IPD) is pleased to announce an agreement with Icon Group for the roll out of 13 SOZO units to establish lymphoedema screening services for breast cancer patients across Australia and New Zealand. These initial units are scheduled to be installed over the coming weeks.

Icon Group is Australia’s largest dedicated cancer care provider, with 31 cancer centres in Australia and a global footprint in New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong and mainland China. This footprint includes day oncology hospitals, radiation oncology facilities and comprehensive centres that bring both oncology disciplines together.

With a commitment to delivering the best care possible, closer to home for cancer patients through the use of innovative technology-based solutions, Icon offers the latest in cancer treatment including Australia’s largest private cancer clinical trials program to improve health outcomes for men and women both in Australia and across the world.

“Through the implementation of lymphoedema screening at 13 Icon centres in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, Australian Capital Territory, Tasmania, and Wellington in New Zealand, we are helping patients take control from the very start of their cancer journey. SOZO facilitates the identification of each patient’s individual risk of developing lymphoedema, ensuring the early detection of lymphoedema and the delivery of appropriate education and management to reduce its progression. At a time when there are so many uncertainties for a patient, this service arms them with important knowledge to manage their wellbeing throughout surgery, treatment and beyond,” said Mark Middleton, Icon Group CEO.

As stated in July 2021 in the Q4 FY’21 Quarterly 4C, the Company has begun expanding its engagement with key corporate accounts. SOZO, as a digitally connected health platform, gives ImpediMed the ability to see patient testing in real-time, anywhere in the world. This real-time insight allows the Company to tailor its approach by better managing and reallocating resources when opportunities arise.

In recent months, the Company has reallocated resources with a renewed focus on corporate accounts. The work done has identified a deep pipeline of opportunities across the Asia-Pacific and U.S. markets., as large hospital systems are looking for innovative ways to improve patient care and grow as they work within a continued and evolving COVID-19 environment.

“We are proud to work with providers like Icon who strive for the highest levels of care for patients undergoing cancer treatment. This agreement opens the door to thousands of patients to participate in a state-of-the-art lymphoedema prevention program aimed at stopping chronic lymphoedema before it starts,” commented Richard Carreon, Managing Director and CEO of ImpediMed.

“With PREVENT Trial results forthcoming, we believe the Icon account will be the first of many contracts and account expansions by our expanded corporate accounts team,” he added.

Approved for release by the Managing Director and CEO, Mr Richard Carreon.
