Assure Holdings Performs First Neuromonitoring Case in Michigan

Assure Continues Expansion, Now Operating in Six States

DENVER, Dec. 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Assure Holdings Corp. (the “Company” or “Assure”) (TSXV: IOM; OTCPK: ARHH), a provider of intraoperative neuromonitoring services, has performed its first neuromonitoring case in the state of Michigan.

The move into Michigan represents the fifth new state Assure has added to its platform since branching out from its home state of Colorado in November 2017. The four other states include Pennsylvania, Texas, Louisiana and Utah. The continued expansion into an additional state has primarily been driven by the Company’s growing reputation, along with the increasing demand for neuromonitoring across many different medical procedures.

“Performing our first case in Michigan is another step forward for Assure, as we continue to expand our neuromonitoring platform across the United States,” said John A. Farlinger, Assure’s executive chairman and interim CEO. “We have already developed a strong network of relationships in the Detroit area, and we expect to grow rapidly in this new market with our outstanding reputation and high-quality service offerings.”
