National Health Partners, Inc. (National Health) (OTCBB:NHPR), a leading provider of unique discount healthcare membership programs, announced today that it has entered into agreements with several chambers of commerce in 2008 representing a total of over 8,000 companies nationwide.

Since the beginning of the year, the company has announced agreements with the Troy Chamber of Commerce (Troy Chamber) and the Michigan Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (MHCC). The Troy Chamber is comprised of over 750 businesses located throughout the greater Troy, Michigan area. The MHCC is comprised of over 300 member companies, including Michigan’s leading Hispanic-owned companies, original equipment manufacturers, tier one suppliers, non-automotive Fortune 500 corporations, government agencies and community-based organizations.

In addition to these chambers of commerce, however, the company has also entered into agreements with several additional chambers of commerce during 2008. A profile of some of these chambers of commerce is provided below.

• Asian Pacific American Chamber of Commerce, a non-profit association dedicated to the economic advancement of Asian Pacific American businesses and professionals comprised of more than 1,000 Fortune 500 corporations, multi-ethnic private business enterprises, small businesses and corporate professionals located across the country.

• Rochester Regional Chamber of Commerce, which has a membership base of approximately 1,300 businesses ranging from sole proprietorships to Fortune 500 companies located primarily in Rochester, Rochester Hills, and Oakland Township, Michigan.
• Southern Wayne County Chamber of Commerce, a non-profit organization that has over 1,000 member organizations located primarily in southeastern Michigan.
• The Greater Berkley Chamber of Commerce, which promotes and supports businesses in the greater Berkley, Michigan area, including the cities of Berkley, Huntington Woods and Oak Park.

• The Greater West Bloomfield Chamber of Commerce, which has approximately 250 member organizations located primarily in the greater West Bloomfield, Michigan area.

• Madison Heights / Hazel Park Chamber of Commerce, which promotes and supports businesses in the Madison Heights and Hazel Park areas of Michigan and has a membership base of over 500 businesses.

“As we have said in the past, chambers of commerce are ideal business partners for us as they are comprised primarily of large numbers of small companies that cannot afford to provide their employees with health insurance,” stated David M. Daniels, President and Chief Executive Officer of National Health Partners. “For example, 85 percent of all members of the Kalamazoo Regional Chamber of Commerce are small businesses with 25 or fewer employees. And none of these chambers of commerce currently offers any comprehensive health discount programs like our CARExpress membership programs. This is the first time that any of these organizations has offered a program like CARExpress to their respective member organizations.”

“We are beginning to implement marketing and advertising campaigns directed at each of these chambers’ respective members,” continued Mr. Daniels. “We are doing this with the assistance of each chamber on a co-branding basis. As a result, we believe that these marketing and advertising campaigns will be particularly effective at bringing us in front of the decision-makers of each chambers’ respective member organizations. We expect to produce a significant number of members during 2008 from these chambers of commerce as well as other chambers with which we are working. We also expect to enter into agreements with several additional chambers of commerce in the future. These chambers will help springboard our sales during 2008.”
