Descriptiontext

United American Healthcare Corporation (OTC: UAHC) is a publicly traded holding company headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, operating through three wholly-owned subsidiaries. Pulse Systems, acquired in 2010, provides contract manufacturing services to the medical device industry, offering precision CNC machining and laser cutting capabilities from facilities in Concord, CA and Marlborough, MA. UAHC Ventures, launched in 2017, pursues strategic investments in blockchain technology and digital currency. American Sustainable Rubber Company (ASR), established in February 2019, is developing domestic natural rubber production using genetically modified Taraxacum Kok-saghyz (TK) dandelions grown in indoor hydroponic systems.

The company's core technology platform centers on three differentiated assets. Pulse Systems operates a Tsugami Laser-cutting System that combines CNC machining and laser cutting in a single setup for medical device prototyping, supported by ISO 13485:2016 and ISO 9001:2015 quality certifications. ASR holds exclusive U.S. rights to the genetically modified TK Rubber Dandelion (Buckeye Gold) under a royalty agreement with The Ohio State University (April 2019) and acquired patent-pending Controlled Environment Agriculture Genetic Modification Technology from President Timothy J. Madden. Dr. Katrina Cornish, recipient of the 2019 Bioenvironmental Polymer Lifetime Achievement Award, serves as Scientific Advisor to ASR.

UAHC generates revenue primarily through contract manufacturing services for medical device OEMs on a direct enterprise sales basis, with customers described generically as "medical device designers and manufacturers worldwide." Pricing is not publicly disclosed. Secondary revenue mechanisms include licensing/royalty potential from ASR's natural rubber technology and investment returns from UAHC Ventures. Founded in 1985 as a managed care consulting firm, UAHC has executed multiple strategic pivots—from healthcare consulting to medical device manufacturing in 2010, blockchain investing in 2017, and sustainable rubber production in 2019—reflecting a diversified holding company model with operational autonomy across subsidiaries. The company employs 11–50 people total.
