Medical Care Technologies Inc. Gains Full Licensure from Government

BEIJING, Aug. 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Medical Care Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: MDCE), a rapidly growing children's healthcare service provider, today announced that it has gained full licensure from two government departments to operate its children's health and wellness center in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, China.

Medical Care Technologies Inc. moves another step forward in its project to bring an enhanced and integrated healthcare service to children and their families. Dongguan's Department of Urban Planning and Dongguan's Department of Health have given the Company the green light and have approved the site plan for a new children's health and wellness center. The approvals mark a major step forward for the Company's plan to bring a higher level of healthcare for communities in China's southern Guangdong Province.

The Company's Chinese subsidiary, Teddyberry™ and Company will locate its first 4,000+ square foot flagship children's health center in Dongguan, located within a metropolitan area of 10 million people with an estimated 1 million children.

This is a momentous occasion for our team, but it's also great news for our surrounding communities and the patients and families we will have the pleasure to serve," said Luis Kuo, Chief Operating Officer of Medical Care Technologies Inc. "The establishment of this health center is truly an advancement in integrated healthcare in this community, and one that will impact the lives of many children and families in years to come."

The approval of the project is the culmination of many months of strategic planning, including the formation of a world-class Medical Advisory Board with the right mix of expertise and compassion, and a recently held corporate summit held in Dongguan and Beijing with the Board of Directors, Management Team and Chinese health officials.

"We're excited to move forward with our plan to better meet the growing healthcare needs of children and their families," said Ning Wu, President and Chief Executive Officer of Medical Care Technologies Inc.
