Because 58 million patients and 12,000 urologists*

need a better way to diagnose and treat lower urinary tract symptoms.

* US only

CarePath is the first and only remote patient monitoring system for urology.

Why is this such a big idea?

Hand-written voiding diaries were the best we had.

They were terrible!

Nobody wants a commode hat.

CarePath is the first and only remote patient monitoring system for urology.

Why is this such a big idea?

Or instructions.

Or they blew it off completely.

CarePath is the first and only remote patient monitoring system for urology.

Why is this such a big idea?

Patients were homebound with a commode hat.

Before we continue, you want to know:

FDA cleared? Yes.

IP? 33 issued patents.

Management? Same team that sold AUS to MDT in 2014.

Competition? None.

Reimbursable? More than 60% of patients covered under four codes.*

Premarket ReviewOffice of Device Evaluation, Division of Reproductive, Gastro-Renal and Urological Devices

Regulation Number 867.1800

GMP Exemption No

I have reviewed all the relevant FDA materials, including the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, FDA regulations, and FDA guidance regarding how the FDA would classify the “CarePath” medical device. I have concluded CarePath device would be a Class II medical described in 21 C.F.R. §876.1800 and exempt from premarket notification procedures in 21 C.F.R. Part 807… and will be able to market … without 510(k) premarket clearance notification or pre-market approval application.

Ross C. D'EmanuelePartner, FDA and Regulatory Consultant5/15/2019

CarePath is exempt from Pre-Market approval application or 510(K) requirement• CarePath is manufactured in strict adherence to FDA GMP in FDA qualified production facility• All FDA labeling requirements are met• Complete design files and documentation prepared for CE Mark submission requirements

Reimbursement

• >60% of target patient market is covered by CMS• Patient survey (by CTT) showed 100% of men and 80% of females would pay directly for CarePath if recommended by their physician• Contracted with Marksman Consulting for full HC economics analysis & develop formal plan to obtain coverage by commercial payers• Formal clinical utility study to begin April 2020 to demonstrate impact of CarePath on patient outcomes and HC system costs• Major US healthcare systems interested in providing CarePath to improve access to urology services

The Growing Shortage of Urologists

Near-future Impact of Retirement on the Urologic WorkforceResults from the AUA Urological Association CensusUrology, Volume 94, August 2016 pg 85-89

More than 50% of Practicing Urologists are over 55 years of age

Urologists planning to retire in the next 5 years

= 27%

The Growing Shortage of Urologists

Back

Appendix: Telehealth and UrologySupply & Demand – we face a major urologist shortage.

* ChildStats.gov US Census Bureau 1970 to 2017: 65 years and older

Supply will decline: 27% of urologists retire (next 5 years).

Demand will grow: 22% of population is 65+ by 2040.

… this will have a impact on patient care!

Patients• Longer consultation wait times

• Treatment delays

• Lower satisfaction

Urologists• Increased clinical demands

• Burnout
