Casey Hoyt, Viemed's CEO, noted, "Viemed continues to earn a trusted place in the home with our high-touch, technology-enabled clinical approach to delivering complex respiratory care services. As a vital link between patients, providers and payers, we are demonstrating Viemed's value in increasing patient satisfaction, improving compliance, and reducing rehospitalizations. This valuable position is helping us increase the patient population that we can serve for non-invasive ventilation, sleep, staffing and other complementary services.

"The combination of Viemed's well-earned place in the home, the sales force restructuring initiatives we completed earlier this year, and the operational efficiencies facilitating greater patient compliance are fueling our strong organic revenue growth. The improved outlook for the balance of 2024 is predicated on continued benefits from these sales initiatives and operational efficiencies driving organic growth and greater penetration of our underserved markets through expanded service and home-based product offerings," added Mr. Hoyt.
