Topic: Doctors and clinics accepting cryptocurrency - page 3. (Read 687 times)

     i gotta say, you have a great project. this will really help a lot of crypto currency users to really stay within the crypto world. knowing that there are services like this in here. but i really have one concern, most of the doctors out there that are veterans are completely very successful already and well positioned in life. can you state any reason why a great quality doctor with a good life would still be interested to be in this project? because in my understanding, doctors really are very careful with just about everything that they do because they want to protect their names and licence. and looking at the state of cryptos nowadays with the public, i do not think good doctors will risk their names on something like this. which then bothers me a lot on what the quality of the services will be. not that i am saying that this is impossible, i am just curious and would really appreciate if someone can shed some light regarding this matter. thanks and good day.

Great, now the bitcoin is reaching many aspect in our life.
Include health matters.
More hospitals and clinics should accept crypto currencies too.

LOL. Good joke. However, this project does not seem to me something like scam. Suppose the idea of spending Bitcoins for health is not the worst one (but not also the new one as well). Even in 2014 docs were taking payment in BTC. This is an old article about it: http://www.healthcareitnews.com/news/physicians-now-taking-payment-bitcoin

It would be happy to to see if bitcoin gets accepted by doctors so that bitcoin goes much deeper in to the main stream of usage as a currency. Nowadays we could see bitcoin getting accepted as payment in health care industries, real estate, shipping industries.Earlier it got accepted only in online shops. Bitcoin usage getting diversified and more sectors have started to realize that they could no more avoid cryptocurrencies especially bitcoin and we could expect mass adoption in the near future.

This is good news for bitcoin users, so with this kind of health facility, a bitcoin deal would be easier without having to go through an exchange to complete the payment ...

This is great! I can not wait to get loose of cash and to pay with virtual coins everywhere. I think this is how the future will look like

If this project is really implemented, this will give a great impetus to the development of bitcoin. After all, it already goes far beyond the sphere of economy, exchanges and so on. Bitcoin in medicine is a new future.

Yes, we do. We want to attract as many specialists in different fields as possible. So if you have someone on mind, don't hesitate to write us to get details)

Thanks for opinion! Like your idea of listing the doctors on the web-site. Will forward to the team.
Would be happy to see you on our thread here, on Bitcointalk,  also)

Exactly. That's one of the reasons why crypto becomes universal indeed. it's good for cross-border payments

An interesting idea, I think it will become popular among clinics around the world.

Hello! Thanks, that would be awesome to discuss with the doctors and get their opinion:) Though on WELL platform doctors would be able to accept fiat as well)
I can give you the link to our site https://joinwell.io, probably it may be interesting to you.
Also we have a ANN thread here.

This is a great idea and I hope you succeed. I wish you all very well!

Please tell me, do you support also other health-related professions like psychologists ? This type of advice can be provided by the means of videoconference easily and I think it would be great to extend what you are doing to this field too. Please let me know.

Thats cool one. This is second thread I guess that I have seen reading such services. The other one was about different services but this one is even better. We could just pay the doc from the virtual world for wasting our money on the medicine which are the harmful drugs really. Lolz!

Well, speaking about the service it does seem to me innovative and will take giant leap in the future for sure. I don't really think my practitioner will really like the idea to get paid in terms of bitcoin but I'm sure you will do great with this services. Hope to see some lists in the future updates if you could. The website is fine but you may wish to update a complete list of doctors according to the region and then everyone can access it easily.

This is a thought that needs to be well analysed where clinics, pharmacies, hospitals and doctors accepting fees in terms of bitcoins. Out of the aforementioned four, doctors are individuals and the rest of the three are institutions. When it comes to doctors, well it is not easy to find one who would accept payment in terms of bitcoins.

Many times a doctor's fee is per visit basis and his earning gradually become an everyday affair unless a doctor too is a salaried employee of a hospital (sometimes this too happens especially with the junior doctors in a few countries). So it is not easy for the doctors to get going upon accepting bitcoins. Again, the fact of paying a doctor in terms of bitcoin as of now seems a little pointless.

However, when we consider the institutions like hospitals and clinics well the option of accepting payment through bitcoin should be made available as far as I personally am concerned. I do not as yet know any of these healthcare providers accepting bitcoins, there could be a few, but it is better to have this option open.

When patients come from different countries or tourists when they fall sick, it becomes easy for them to pay in terms of bitcoins than go through the whole process of currency exchange. This in fact makes things easier for people and patients. The hassle of carrying a card or cash can be bypassed. Such an arrangement should be promoted that makes things comvenient for all of us who are world citizens, where our world is getting smaller and closer.

hey mate your question is off-topic but I can help you. But beware you should not spam other people's threads next time.
There is this map https://coinmap.org/#/world/50.09996918/14.46910948/8
It will tell you where you can spend bitcoins.

This could also be a great opportunity for a bitcoin to become a worldwide legal mood of payment I think. This could be very helpful to bitcoin to become more popular and also for a society to accept bitcoin and adopt bitcoin also as a means of payment, and also become their investments too, which will become also very helpful to them.

Man anything would be better that what the US healthcare system has set up right now, the payments are still ridiculously paper based.  Factor in the trillions of dollars that are spent on healthcare every year and it's a prime market to be disrupted with a digital currency.  Can't tell you how many times I've spent an hour on the phone trying to figure out my bill with a healthcare provider, when they received the check, and all that. 
 

Good news and good luck for your medical project by accepting blockchain as a means of payment ,I also have a doctor's acquaintance and he has also been joining bitcointalk since 2017 , I will tell him about your project may be able to you discuss with him , health is very important for human well I respect every doctor including my acquaintance

This is good news, every day we learn that we can spend these bitcoins!
