Topic: Medical Consult for Bitcoins (Read 13267 times)
Saw this site: http://coinmd.org posted on Bitcoin subreddit. They seem to offering medical advice from doctors for Bitcoin.
I am offering small bounties for the first psychiatric and CBT sessions performed over the net for bitcoin. This seems like an important neglected area.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bounty-for-pyschiatrictherapy-services-250065
I have put together a small preliminary website noted in my sig for BTC physician-patient services. More features will be rolled out as the volume of physicians accepting bitcoin goes up.
Anyone have any other ideas regarding how to push for more physicians and patients using bitcoins in general?
Thank you for any suggestions.

Proof that consults worth paying for don't have to be doctor-patient based...
I'll presume it is.

Is the address in your sig a good one to use?
At this rez I can't tell much...my friend says:
all i can tell is its a cystic skin lesion
you see epidermis at the bottom, then dermis
then there is a lined cavity, and some subq
you need to see the cell type along the cyst wall
Ask your friend if its possible (_possible_, not probable or definite) that this specimen contains cartilage...
I see what I think are a few blue islands...that could be cartilage...there is supposed to be cartilage here...
We can't tell at this level of mag :\
You don't have this in scope software where you can zoom and screenshot?
but:
"so i'd say that triangle at the deep edge of the biopsy beside the subQ fat is very possibly cartilage"
anybody know a pathologist? I need help identifying the types of tissues present on a histopathology slide:
This is a sacrococcygeal teratoma and should have two or three embryonic layers present. The slides are ultra-low resolution (but it's what I got), and I can't for the life of me identify any of the tissues (I need to annotate the slides).
Med students, you're closer to this stuff than I...BTC0.2 bounty if you beat me to it (I'm gonna keep working on it as I presume it is hopeless).

Somewhat related: do you think getting some free clinics to accept btc might help supplement their income from the btc community? I'm a 3rd year med student and was thinking of contacting some of the free clinics I've worked at.
Would you guys(the doctors here) be interested in a website for your consultation only?
Like pay some bitcoins/bitcents to unlock your answers type of thing? Or maybe run on donations only?

I can say - as a customer - I would like such thing to exist
I have a contact who is a dermatology resident that can reply here or via email/PM to any derm/skin/rash/lesion questions.
Also, I can help anyone with connecting with tor/tails/pseudo-anonymously.
cheers,

Unless I missed it, I can't believe I am the first person asking this-do you have any credentials to show?
Yes, you have answered people's questions, but that does not mean 100% that you are a doctor. You could be a nurse, physicians assistant, student, or maybe even just have memorized Grey's Anatomy (not quite serious on that last one).
Whenever I am going to see a Dr, I look up their history and use a service to verify that they received their degree where they say they did, did their residency where they say they did, have had no malpractice suits against them, etc.-and that is among people I know for certain are licensed physicians.
I really don't mean to discredit you if you are in-fact a doctor, but I am amazed that no one has even thought to verify your credentials. A few posts above me I see another guy saying he is an Orthopedic Surgeon. Well, I am a Trauma Surgeon. See what I mean-I can be ANYTHING I want online. Before I take your advice (and I suggest before anyone else does, too) I would have to see verification that you are in-fact a licensed doctor. Don't call it "trolling", call it due-diligence, which, when it comes to health, really shouldn't have any boundaries.

Not only am I an orthopaedic surgeon, I am also a dealer in shiny novelty physical bitcoins that you recently bought from me
but you do bring a good point. If people are to pay for consultation, than credentials and liability are at issue. The credentials part doesn't bother me - easy enough to look me up - the liability issue however is bothersome, which is why I would prefer to offer free medical advice with disclaimer And you sir from the big O?
If it rhymes with the month of May, oh, then yes. It's a great place for radiology residency. I did med school in Chicago.

Absolutely, if you take explicit payment from someone in exchange for medical advice you are now their physician. That's a role that most doctors (and most courtrooms) take pretty seriously. Although most small things are just that, almost every "simple" diagnosis has a few red-flag/serious differentials to rule out - that's the difference between getting your medical advice from google vs a doctor.
That said, even if you have an established face-to-face relationship with a doctor, if you call him/her with anything remotely worrying he/she will tell you to pop in to the office or to the ED, because the phone (or internet) is just a starting point in all but the most benign situations.
Just my 2 cents (training in General Surgery in the Northeast ATM).
