In our current system, the hospitals own your healthcare information. It’s a barrier to seeing physicians outside of their network. We should be able to request the information, own it, and then ask the hospitals to erase it. Unfortunately, government‘s regulation requires hospitals to hold onto this for years.

We went on a "food desert" adventure. See what we could buy for $2.22. Its a keto vs convenience store vs fast food showdown

🤔🤨Shall we state the obvious?

Injuries and pregnancies continue to lead the crowdfunding requests. This is a function of our member base. Average age is 34 - active and in primary reproductive years.

Healthcare costs for a family of 4 on CrowdHealth*: 2021: $9,000 2022: $8,340 2023: $6,900 2024: $6,900 *(monthly fee + monthly crowdfunding maximum) x 12

Wow…just wow. The food pyramid has taught us that Cheerios are better than eggs, pasta is better than steak. Marketers have taught us that ultra processed food is healthier than food that comes directly from the Earth…the result is that our bodies are being destroyed. We are moved to take action. CrowdHealth members…is there any desire to have access to a doctor that would provide lifestyle medicine services in both individual and group sessions? If so leave a note below or send us a DM

We help our members negotiate their bills then we send them to the Crowd for crowdfunding. Member paid $500 Crowdfunded $7000 Fund humans not health insurance

If we really want to bend the long term healthcare cost curve we must both reduce prices and be more healthy. Doing one without the other is futile.

Our favorite story: We had a member with a miscarriage that had complications requiring medical treatment. We sent out the Crowdfunding request to our members to help with the bills. A member responded: “Miscarriage is a part of my story. I know what this family is going through. I’d like to give more to that family than what you’ve asked.” You would never do this with health insurance. Our biggest differentiator from health insurance is that you are helping each other directly. You are not sending your money to a big insurance company to line executives pockets. You know exactly where your money is going and what it is being used for. Fund humans not health insurance.

Our newest little member of the Crowd community was born early and is now in the NICU. Can you please send your thoughts and prayers to this family for full healing? 🧡🧡🧡

Ketosis is one of the most powerful and most misunderstood metabolic mechanism in our body. It has been scientifically proven to enhance brain function (including helping control seizures and improving mental health disorders) yet hardly anyone really knows how it works. We go deep with @theketologist to learn more about the benefits of ketones. Link in bio. LISTEN FOR A SPECIAL OFFER

The most asked question from prospective Crowd members is whether or not the Crowd will help them with their bills. In our pursuit of radical transparency we have a built a page to show all bills that were submitted to the Crowd but not fully funded. Please note: there are no bills on this page. For future reference you can find it here: joincrowdhealth.com/unfunded

Thanks to all of our new followers here on Nostr! We will be doing our quarterly quarter cow contest 🐄 only on Nostr this quarter! Stay tuned…

We are pro human flourishing. We are anti medical industrial complex.

CrowdHealth provides healthcare payment tools for the uninsured to viably navigate the complexities of the “American” healthcare system. Ditch insurance and join us to experience the freedom from the medical industrial complex.

Our friend @Avik and our CEO @SchoonoverAndy could think of only one industry less free than healthcare….but there is hope! Episode 10 of The Sovereign Health Podcast YouTube: youtu.be/iN2KRsKsR8M

Most people don’t know this: You’ll save 50% on your medical expenses if you: Get labs at an independent lab Get imaging at an imaging center Get outpatient surgeries at a surgery center Give birth at home or a birthing center Take care of non life threatening injuries at an urgent care clinic/stand alone ER Utilize virtual care Hospitals are only good for life threatening injuries/illness and major inpatient surgeries…and in those cases you’ll save a ton paying in cash.

Thanks to everyone who gave in August! Fund humans not health insurance
