AVRICORE HEALTH INC. (TSXV: AVCR) is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary, HealthTab Ltd, has entered into a formal collaboration agreement with Abbott, a global healthcare company, to supply and distribute Abbott’s point-of-care testing products through the HealthTab™ platform in the UK.
The agreement allows HealthTab to distribute Abbott’s Afinion™ 2 Analyzer in NHS-linked pharmacies to test for HbA1c and lipid profiles. The collaboration also establishes a structured framework for the continued expansion of point-of-care testing through community pharmacies. “This agreement represents our most significant milestone to date,” said Rodger Seccombe, CEO of Avricore Health. “We’ve spent fifteen years building and proving the model for pharmacy-based point-of-care testing, and we’ve learned that solving this problem takes more than great technology — it takes an industry-leading partner willing to invest the people, expertise, and resources needed to make it successful. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to be working with, and together we’re going to make a real impact on patient care.”
HealthTab™ at the Core of Scalable, Integrated PoCT
HealthTab™ provides a complete, turnkey solution underpinning national pharmacy-based PoCT networks, including best-in-class instruments, consumables, onboarding, training, and ongoing support for participating sites.
At its centre is a secure cloud-based platform that seamlessly connects point-of-care analyzers, patient results, QC data, and pharmacist workflows, creating a unified digital infrastructure for community-based testing.
This integrated approach ensures quality-assured testing, consistent data capture across locations, and real-time analytics to support public-health reporting and performance monitoring, while reducing implementation complexity for pharmacy partners.
