Former HP and Kodak Executive Joins SoloHealth to Lead Health Kiosk Distribution

Addition of former HP and Kodak executive adds breadth and depth to management team.



    ATLANTA, GA, January 11, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- SoloHealth (www.solohealth.com), a recognized leader in self-directed health care, announced today that Rick Voight, former National Sales Manager of Retail Publishing at Hewlett-Packard, has joined the company.

Rick will be responsible for market penetration and distribution of the company's SoloHealth Station, an innovative new solution that allows consumers in high-traffic retail environments to test their vision, blood pressure, and body mass, obtain health and wellness information, and store a history of their results that can be accessed at the consumer's convenience. This health and wellness ecosystem, a 'front porch' to health care, allows retailers, manufacturers, doctors, insurance companies and others to reach customers in a highly personal and targeted manner. Rick brings 25 years of experience in delivering technology solutions to retailers and alternative channel partners.

Rick played an integral role in the creation and growth of the Retail Publishing division at Hewlett-Packard, which has achieved chain-wide equipment and internet connected deployments at HEB, Meijer, Duane Reade, and WalMart, representing approximately 5,000 stores and 15,000 kiosks throughout North America.

Prior to HP, Rick spent 18 years at Kodak in various sales, marketing, and new business creation positions, with responsibilities that included packaged goods, services, kiosks, and other capital equipment. During this time, he forged exclusive agreements with Publix, Circuit City, Kinko's, Amazon.com, and United Western Grocers. He also negotiated and coordinated a $1 billion contract with CVS pharmacy, which included placement of kiosks in more than 3,000 stores in four months, the largest-ever photo kiosk roll-out at the time.

"We're thrilled to add a highly experienced and talented executive like Rick to the SoloHealth team," says SoloHealth founder and CEO Bart Foster. "His leadership in self-service technology and retail deployments will add tremendous value to SoloHealth and our customers during this very exciting and important time for the company."

Rick received a BS in Finance from Rochester Institute of Technology and an MBA from University of South Florida with Beta Gamma Sigma and Phi Kappa Phi recognition.

SoloHealth, with Headquarters in Duluth, GA, is a technology company that develops and deploys interactive health screening kiosks in an effort to empower consumers to be proactive about their health. The company's kiosks provide free health screenings and recommendations for follow-up care, which leads to prevention and lower health care costs. For more information, visit www.solohealth.com.
