"FlorPass has received tremendous response from our physician partners in Florida and we are pleased to be working with Liberty to bring new and innovative solutions to our rapidly expanding patient population," says Dr. Michael Murphy, Chairman and CEO of Alternate Health. "Our team has developed a truly unique system and, through the agreement with Liberty, we are positioned for excellent growth in the Florida market."

Liberty Health Sciences and Alternate Health were granted approval by the Florida Department of Health to implement FlorPass as the state's first online shopping portal for medical cannabis equipped with a digital transaction system. Patients will now have the ability to browse medical cannabis products, make purchases and arrange delivery through the FlorPass secure online portal. FlorPass is the patient management software of choice for many of the state's leading cannabis clinics and physicians, representing nearly 6,000 medical cannabis patients.

"We are proud to partner with a market leader and innovator like Alternate Health to provide best in class ecommerce access to the quality, value, and industry-leading expertise of our Liberty brands and services," said George Scorsis, CEO of Liberty Health Sciences. "Our customers will now have online access to our growing product line with easy to navigate search capabilities, including filtering by brand and price. FlorPass is the perfect solution for us to deliver on our promise of exceptional user experience without sacrificing functionality or security."

FlorPass charges a transaction fee based on a percentage of sales through the system's e-commerce platform. Alternate Health anticipates strong revenues based on the growing patient base and Liberty's strong brand presence across the state.

"The Florida Department of Health's approval of FlorPass represents a turning point for accountability and compliance in medical cannabis sales throughout the state," adds Dr. Murphy. "FlorPass provides state regulators and health officials access to the most comprehensive data analytics, with transparent tax reporting and unmatched security protocol."

FlorPass is a blockchain-enabled software platform that manages the end-to-end transactions involved in providing safe access to medical cannabis to eligible patients. The system is accessible by the patient, certified doctors and licensed dispensaries, linked through a seamless interface, and is used to facilitate online purchases of medical cannabis and provide enhanced medical treatment recommendations, with a focus on improving patient outcomes.

About Alternate Health Corp.

Alternate Health Corp. (CSE: AHG) (OTCQB: AHGIF) Alternate Health has established multiple arms-length operations within the medical cannabis industry, each of which drives consumers, data and strategic opportunities to the company's other verticals.

Alternate Health resides in the cannabis sector along with companies like GW Pharmaceuticals, AXIM Biotechnologies Inc., Canopy Growth Corporation, and Aphria Inc. Alternate Health is differentiated from other cannabis companies by its focus on ancillary services for patients, healthcare professionals and regulatory providers rather than selling a commodity.
