Why should doctors use your platform? It seems easier just to exchange crypto into fiat and pay for tretment. Then you won't have to pay the service fees and the recieving side won't have to deal with extra accounting issues. If doctors need to accept crypto they can do it via bitpay or a simple transaction. You won't be able to provide a high quality healthcare on your platform if there wil be better specialists that accept only fiat.


WELL is not the place where you can pay for medical treatment with crypto (actually, fiat is also possible).
That's a marketplace where patients can get in touch with the doctors speaking their native language 24/7/365 (Telehealth solution), get a second opinion on the diagnosis. as for doctors, they also benefit: guaranteed payment for their services, collaboration opportunities and etc.
If you wish, here is our WhitePaper for you to look at https://joinwell.io/docs/joinwell-whitepaper-en.pdf

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!
If doctors and clinics accept crypto to help the market thrive, this is also a blockchain application to life. But it is hard to do because many countries are trying to ban it.

Hopefully they won't that.
Probably it's needed to apply some regulation to crypto world, but crypto is shaping the future, no doubt in that

ICO is all about any aspect of a profession in the community all over the word! if you remember denta coin for dental health and hearthy ICO for improving medical treatment and record! everything is possible with crypto.

Totally agree here! It's very inspiring to see great projects and how they want to make the world a better place

In my country as of now , no clinics or doctors are accepting crypto currencies mostly as i live in a country wherein the usage of coins is not regulated.But i see the future of crypto currencies good as the block chain technology is useful in many ways and the regulation would imply that these technologies and coins would bring a good change in our economies.

Well, yes, for now the world isn't ready for cryptocurrencies in our daily life and medicine specifically.
Though blockchain, for instance, can bring lot of good to the way we store patients' data in clinic, payments and etc.

This is a nice, progressive idea and probably will not be accepted in many countries. Healthcare is one of the areas where such "experiments" usualy are not very welcome.
I think that is especialy good for those who don't have health insurance and can't afford to pay in fiat money. Hope it will work.

Thanks!
yes, the issue you raised is one of the problems that WELL want to solve. On our platform services will cost up to 30% less than a general medical appointment.
Moreover, payment via WELL platform will be very beneficial for those, who do cross border payment, for instance.

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?

Even they accept or not there's some way to be related in accepting cryptocurrency like change first this to fiat,it's already in our own wallet and we can change direct that btc to fiat here in our country so that's not problem if they accept it or not another thing i know transaction in btc is so volatile so i think in digital it's really good but if you going to pay in hospital i think the process in that situation is going so long.

Is it real to make the collaboration between medicine and blockchain happen? It must have A LOT of connections in medical society.  As for me I'd like to see that scheme working properly but it's too hard to realise...

Actually blockchain is a technology is being studied and I hope will be implemented soon even by public medical institutions.
But I completely agree that it's not an easy job to create something such innovative and outstanding: a lot is required. Medicine is very serious field, needs licenses and etc.
As for WELL, for instance, it works since 2015 (but without blockchain for that time) in California,has acquired medical license and is HIPAA compliant.

Any other merchants or services accepting BTC? I need to know where I can spend bitcoin and how. Thanke you!

Bitcoin is gradually taking roots in Africa, although painfully slow. Nevertheless, there is refreshing news on a daily basis that makes the drive to push Bitcoin penetration in the so-called “hopeless continent” promising....From brave women promoting adoption to startups using Bitcoin and the Blockchain to provide financial inclusion and prevent piracy, the number is endless. It is a great inspiration to the ecosystem and Africa stands to gain a lot from the spread of the crypto revolution.
Meanwhile, in the Southern African city of Gaborone in Botswana, a private clinic known as Sharada Clinic receives Bitcoin as a form of payment for treatment. Run by Dr. Donald Ariisa, it is the only health facility in the whole country that accepts bitcoin..

That's really amazing how cryptoeconomy developing in Africa!
many thanks for the info about that clinic.

This is an innovation via the blockchain. It will push the blockchain technology far to the people and making Bitcoin usage and acceptance further and
wider. This is really a novel project.
