Low-key Sunday. Catching up on a few pods. Another banger from
@Bitcoin Mentor this week about healthcare systems and stories of exorbitant payments and wait times for crucial healthcare services. Learn how Bitcoin can fix some of these issues with Andy Schoonover from
@CrowdHealth.
For people in contexts with more universal healthcare systems like in Canada and UK, Bitcoin is still relevant even though it may seem that healthcare is free. Someone has to pay and it’s through taxes and revenues at federal and more local levels (provinces etc.).
Imagine if local regions had bitcoin reserves to help fund heathcare? Could this lower the tax dollar spend on healthcare? More importantly, what would healthcare look like if people save in bitcoin and pool their monies?
@CrowdHealth gives us an opportunity to see what’s possible.
