Healthcare delivered. WELL

Quote from: Palmerson on January 30, 2018, 07:11:46 AM

I don't like the idea of medical consultations over the Internet. This is stupid. It's like a virtual wedding. You can have virtual sex but the fun and children you don't have to be. It seems to me that the establishment of such platforms is premature. When cryptocurrencies will be popular people will be looking for ways to earn them.

Thanks for opinion. But still there are many ways where online appointments may be useful and helpful. For instance, when you already have a diagnosis concluded by another doctor and you want a second opinion.
Or for example, you simple don't have time/opportunity to visit a doctor. Services like our platform WELL (https://joinwell.io) may really help.

I think these is a good idea if it will happen because many people are already using digital currency, plus the price is increasing. You can also have a choice on how you want to pay. I also think that more people will accept bitcoin if these happens.

Yes it will be a good thing for bitcoin to be known by other people. And it would be a good help foe those who do not have money but have bitcoin. I hope that it will be implemented as well here in my country. Hope that doctors would do their best knowung that we payed them our hard earned bitcoins.

for those who already know this bitcoin is very good, but for those who do not know the bitcoin is pity too, going in the clinic or doctor do not know anything and do not understand. so we also have to think of other people

of course bitcoin is very useful in all areas including in the field of health as payment in the field of medicine but for now I have never found a doctor or hospital receive payment with bitcoin if there are doctors and hospitals that receive payment with bitcoin is certainly very useful especially in growth cryptocurrency, surely with the development of cryptocurrency all fields will receive bitcoin in making payment

Hello, Bitcointalk people:)

We are creating WELL Platform - where patients can connect with doctors via different devices and get medical consultation (telehealth solution on blockchain). Here is our site if you'd like to see more info https://joinwell.io. And that's our WEB PLATFORM for a test: https://www.tele.joinwell.com

Our plan is to develop a great, really global, network of clinicians and doctors who will present on our Platform.
Do you know any doctors/ clinics that can accept cryptocurrency as a payment for their services? Any countries are welcome!

I don't think so if there are hospital that accept bitcoin right now, but maybe in near future all the establishment will accept bitcoin so that's everyone will became stable. I hope someday it became okay.

This all sounds well if you’re out of pocket but let’s say you have a healthcare provider then it really doesn’t matter as they handle all payments to your caregivers.

If it can be implemented, the use of cryptocurrencies becomes important and can come into our lives, not just those of us who understand cryptocurrencies. Ordinary people know cryptocurrencies and even join the world of cryptocurrencies.

Agree. Especially when it refers to our own health. Healthcare industry now is facing a lot of challenges, it's even disrupted. Blockchain with its features can make it better)

It's great to hear that doctors and clinics are accepting bitcoins. This isn't yet happening in our country. I hope this time will come. As I always said paying through bitcoin means convenience on both parties.

It is. It gives more transparency and safety to the whole process, especially what refers payments.
actually we develop global Telehealth service called WELL, where patients can pay not only with crypt, but with fiat also.

I am a U.S.-based psychiatrist who just started accepting cryptocurrency in my multi-state direct-to-consumer telepsychiatry practice. I decided to accept crypto mainly due to its lower processing fees compared to credit cards.
Joinwell.io sounds like an interesting, innovative concept in global healthcare .However, medical licensing and malpractice risk management issues could be challenging especially for US-based providers that are trained to be cautious in this litigious environment.

Hello! Great to hear an opinion from a specialist!
Well, we already operate as Well, Inc in California, delivering Telehealth services. Got a medicare license and HIPAA compliant.
Would be very happy to talk to you, for instance, via Skype or something. As we are expanding our doctors' network

Your plans are really great, but to do that is not really easy. and in the present circumstances, finding a human resource that accepts salaries by crypto is a very difficult task. in addtion, Will the government allow you to do this or not?

Well, we completely understand that it's not very easy to implement. and on WELL platform doctors can accept fiat money as a payment. (our business model is fully described in whitepaper - invite you to read it here: https://joinwell.io/docs/joinwell-whitepaper-en.pdf)
As for the governmental issues, we hope that someday there will be changes to do that. And by the way WELL already operates in California (the USA), but with no blockchain implemented. And got Medicare license.

Of course with this contribution, bitcoin value will increase significantly if my government also support hospital and clinic.
It's really amazing if all people around the world also accept bitcoin so the value will keep increase from time to time
