On this episode, we talk with Hector Bremner. Hector is CEO of Avricore Health which is a pharmacy service innovator focused on acquiring and developing early-stage technologies aimed at moving pharmacy forward. For example, its flagship offering HealthTab™ gives community pharmacies a turn-key solution for rapid testing. The reason they're doing this is because the scope of services being offered by pharmacies is increasing rapidly. And that's happening because our sick-care system, where we wait for folks to develop diseases and then treat them, is becoming unsustainable. It's too expensive, we have workforce shortages including the potential for massive physician shortages in the coming years, and frankly, it's just not a smart way to do things. So, governments are taking steps to move towards a system that is designed to keep people from getting sick in the first place. And looking to do so in a more equitable way. We discuss all of this today, largely, through the lens of new healthcare policies coming down in Canada. We explore what's driving it, and what it means for Canadian healthcare spending and for healthcare businesses. Hector helps us see how these changes create an opportunity for community pharmacies to expand their role, provide a better experience and better outcomes to patients, and to do so in a way that is equitable, good for the pharmacy, good for the pharmacist, and good for the healthcare system as a whole. A win for everyone involved. For full show notes and links, visit https://deepdive.tips

Bell2Bell's latest podcast features Hector Bremner, CEO of Avricore Health Inc. (TSX.V: AVCR) (OTCQB: AVCRF), a pharmacy service innovator focused on acquiring and developing early-stage technologies aimed at moving pharmacy forward. Throughout the interview, Bremner discussed Avricore's business model and the company's continuing efforts to lead the charge and improve early detection and screening practices throughout the health care industry. “We're a company focused on diagnostics. We place a system within the pharmacy where a blood test or a molecular test can be done. A simple sample is collected, and the whole test takes about 15 minutes,” Bremner said. “Our technology is a cloud-based solution that networks these high-quality analyzers from companies like Abbott and is able to then create a testing network in the pharmacy… The patient gets to keep their information, of course… but really, the objective here is to create a global network of pharmacies reporting back real-time information on patient data that can be used for study and research purposes, which is a very, very high demand out there in the sector.” “My background, funnily enough, was not in health care nor public companies. I was actually in government,” he continued. “Leading into Avricore Health, what got me excited was that we have a disease care system in [Canada], and I've always really believed that we need a true health care system that values early detection and screening if we really want to make sure that we're not only saving lives but saving health care dollars in the future. We're really passionate about leading this charge… We've got a company that is in great shape and fully funded. We're growing, and we've got a lot of blue sky ahead of us.” Bremner then discussed some of the recent milestones for Avricore Health.
