The Aaron Day Show

Welcome back to The Aaron Day Show. This is season two, episode forty eight. Very excited about tonight's episode. I've been working towards this for a while. In fact, I'm still kind of coding the last few minutes of it as we're going through the podcast. Tonight, we're going to be launching the beta version of OSARA. which is an online medical tourism marketplace to start. But I really want this to be the beginning of a completely decentralized healthcare system, a replacement for the healthcare system that we have. So my wife and I have been working on this quite a bit. And so what you're gonna see tonight is There's a bug bounty. There's a thousand dollars in free freedom dollar that we're offering. The official launch of the site to the entire world is going to be on January the first. And I'll explain a little bit more about that, but we wanted to do that in line with new year's resolutions, because as you'll see, there's some aspects to this. We really want to build a movement of people canceling their insurance, setting up medical trusts, and moving to medical tourism as a starting point. But then down the line, we're going to introduce other tools that help empower people to take care of their health so that you don't even need to use medical tourism and so that you can have control of your own health data. You can use technology and AI to get advice that's outside of the big pharma healthcare complex and interact with other people that may have a similar health condition as you have. So there's a big vision for this. Uh, but the starting point tonight, I'm gonna show you, it is rough. And so just so your expectations are, um, you can, you know, again, you can earn rewards for reporting some of the issues. Uh, we really want your feedback. I mean, the whole point of this is to make it easy for other people to use. And, you know, sometimes I can get, uh, engrossed in this to the point where I'm working on this stuff all the time. But the important thing is that it's easy for other people to use. So if you look at something like, oh, this sucks or why not do this? It is conceivable that we forgot about some obvious things and that there are some really excellent ideas out there that we can adopt. And so we want to have all of those. And I'm going to be working on rapidly improving the site. every day well every day from this point forward but also with the idea of working towards a january the first official launch so uh before we get into into that i'm gonna you know do kind of the typical recap of uh of what's gone on in the last last couple of of episodes the last episode was great we had on hakim anwar And I encourage you to look at that episode. There's going to be a lot more about that. Akeem has Above Phone, which is a de-Googled phone. And we are going to be launching in the new year, a Daylight branded version of this de-Googled phone. And that phone will have on it, pre-installed a Zeno wallet, VPN, it will have Mike Adams, Enoch, AI right there. on the phone and it'll have easy access links to OSARA and all of the other Daylight projects that we're working on. So to me, by the way, I mean, the theme with OSARA and everything that I'm doing moving into next year is it's all about action. Spent a lot of time the last few years trying to educate people about the problem. And one of the things that Hakeem brought up on Monday, which I think is accurate based on the information that I've seen as well, is we only have until twenty twenty seven. I mean, we're looking at a global rollout of digital IDs. We need to exit the time to talk about using private decentralized alternatives is over the time to actually start using them and telling others about it and scaling up. That is now and that is one hundred percent what all of next year is about. So if we can make it easy for people to use privacy coins, privacy self-custody AIs through this phone, start to exit the healthcare system through OSR and many of the other things that are going to be launched next year, throughout this year, and then all of the other great projects, which I'll talk about an update with Confidential Layer here shortly, in the Zeno ecosystem, we are ready to actually build and use. So I'm very excited about that. And I'm very excited about the relationship with above phone, I should be receiving mine within the next week. And so that's going to be my go to phone. The episode prior to that season to episode forty six was about the Epstein Bitcoin coup. And I'm going to continue to talk about this because, as you know, if you have been following this, if you've read my book, many of the articles I have suggested that I thought there was a clear link between Epstein and the hijacking of Bitcoin. and not only the hijacking of Bitcoin, but the simultaneous funding of the development of three US CBDC pilots between MIT and the Federal Reserve. It was somewhat speculative because we knew that Epstein had invested in the MIT Multimedia Lab, but we didn't know for sure if those funds were earmarked for Bitcoin or for these other projects. the house released some of the epstein files a few weeks ago and those emails proved conclusively that epstein funded bitcoin core developers when there was you know a breakdown at the bitcoin foundation and more specifically he funded the bitcoin core developer that went on to be a co-author of project hamilton which is the us retail cbdc pilot so i mean at this point You know, people will try to downplay this and say, well, this was this is old news. It's not old news. It was previously speculation that Bitcoin Maxis downplayed. Now it's confirmed fact and no one wants to talk about it. Well, I'm going to continue to talk about it. We're going to use Technocracy Atlas, technocracyatlas.com, which is an AI chatbot that I've built that is based on a whole bunch of Patrick Woods information. I think we have thirty eight million data elements in there. The Epstein files. I just added a whole bunch of additional materials recently. And then we're adding the ability for you to visualize connections, visualize money. The whole point is this is going to be the tool. You know, when people say, well, who is they when people talk about things like technocracy and globalism? Oftentimes, you'll see people just branch off and it's like, well, it's this group, it's this group. Here's a novel idea. Why don't we crowdsource the information and make it publicly available and figure out who they are? Let's figure out what they're doing. Let's figure out who is funding it and figure out how to do something about it and provide transparency. Anyway, more on that coming up. I'm going to go through this. briefly here tonight, I'm going to recap, excuse me, season two, episode forty, which was an episode that I previously did that was on medical tourism. So this was before we launched or were even working on Osara. This was just kind of the original idea behind it. And so so I'm going to give you a quick tour of that very quick tour. of that momentarily, just so that you understand why OSR is so important, why medical tourism is so important, and how broken the US medical system is. People are not aware of how truly bad it is, how much they're getting ripped off, not only in terms of price, but in terms of quality. The system is unfixable. And so the political dynamic of, oh, well, insurance across state lines or Medicare for all, neither of those are viable. we'll demonstrate that but before i move into that there's another huge announcement today uh the team at xeno and confidential layer put out this great video um that i'll let speak for itself but announcing uh kind of and you know the status of what's going on with uh the ability to to make bitcoin private so let me let me play that We have achieved something unprecedented, a unified ideology, a world built on the pure, incorruptible foundation of Bitcoin, the money of the future. It is destiny, one cause, one resolve, the Bitcoin standard. Those who resist, who cling to shadow systems and contradictory truths, shall be silenced by the unstoppable engine of adoption. The Bitcoin standard is perfect. It is the future. We will prevail. July, twenty twenty five. Confidential layer went live, allowing Bitcoin and Ethereum users to bridge their coins onto a completely private by default protocol, giving power back to the people. whether traditional finance likes it or not bitcoin is now private what an awesome video i thought that was great i i uh that really encapsulates a lot of what's going on you know i previously on multiple episodes i'm not gonna play it now but i have a three minute clip where i show you know the first time i heard roger veer speak about bitcoin at a new hampshire event about, you know, it being peer to peer digital cash and spreading freedom throughout the world. It's something that we can use to stop central bank tyranny. And then I play a clip of Michael Saylor talking about how, oh, you know, we don't really want to upset Visa and MasterCard and use it for payments. And, you know, we don't want to upset, you know, we got to pay the taxes and we want to comply with KYC. That clip that I play, the three minute clip is that shows a hundred percent the hijacking, but this This confidential layer news that kind of brings it back, right? This makes, I still don't like Bitcoin. It fixes one of the problems with Bitcoin. It doesn't fix the seven transactions per second, but it does make Bitcoin private and it makes Bitcoin private in a way that is very easy. So I will do an episode about confidential layer. There's some developments going on that I'm not sure what the timing is, but I'm going to wait so that I can show you a couple of different options of how you can use Confidential Layer in a couple of different wallets to make it really, really simple. But this is great news. I thought that was a great video. And if you're on X, go to Rothmus, R-O-T-H-M-U-S. That's his account. This is where this video was released. I encourage you to like and share the post there. I'd love to see that post get shared. as many views as possible and get this particular message out. Because unfortunately, there are a lot of people that don't realize that Bitcoin still isn't private. And then for those that are aware that it's not private, they're not aware that there's an easy to use solution or there have been mixing services where the developers are being thrown in prison which is also a travesty but now there's a you know a technology solution to this that simplifies the whole equation and makes your bitcoin private it's spendable with lower fees and so that is confidential layer it's available um it's integrated in the Edge wallet, I believe it's going to be in or is already in the Bitcoin.com wallet. And so that is just really exciting news for any Bitcoin holder that doesn't want to be tracked or be the object of a wrench attack where increasingly people are being physically kidnapped and threatened with violence and having their keys stolen. So this is good news all the way around. I do want to highlight, I do have a fourth book. In fact, the Zeno Unveiled book hasn't been published yet. But on the last episode, I actually created two books during the Q&A of the actual podcast itself. I created one on cloud seeding and then one on the Panopticon in the education system. Anyway, the whole point is that Mike Adams is just crushing it. with books.brightlearn.ai. I mean, this thing is awesome. I checked today, there have been three hundred and fifty books that have been created on this. And so the idea here is you can go to books, typing in the chat now, books.brightlearn.ai and you enter a prompt up to seventy five thousand characters. and mike's system will create an entire book that is fact checked based on all of this you know phenomenal information that he has been collecting well he's been collecting it for decades but but specifically the two million dollars plus he spent uh building you know the storage systems and everything to have all of the primary first source truth information out there. So these books are actually generated that have footnotes and references that are drawn from the real sources. This isn't hallucination coming from a big tech model that was trained on Reddit. This is actually a system that Mike has built with real information that is directly referenced. So I think this is an amazing achievement. And I've even turned these into audio books, which I'm not going to show here. Tonight, but he also has some of the books that are created are also available in audiobook format. And so you can create your own books. I think he mentioned he wants to have something like ten thousand of these created in a fairly short period of time. I mean, this reduces the cost of information to almost zero. And if you saw the videos at the beginning, I've been working on a lot of things for the last six months, and I do now have a system for creating music videos that is streamlined that I am continuing to improve upon every day. So moving forward, the ability for you to create your own books based on real information, create your own videos, create your own educational content, in whatever format is best for you, however you learn best. It's really, really exciting to see. So with that said, we're going to move on to the OSR stuff. And what I'm going to do now is this is the quick tour of the presentation that I gave, Season Two, Episode Forty, just to recap why this is important. So the U.S. healthcare system is an absolute ripoff here. So to give you an example, a hip replacement in the United States costs, three hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. You can go to Thailand to a high quality resort. And the cost of the entire trip, including yourself and a partner business class on a five star resort, including the procedure, the aftercare and any medication is thirty five thousand dollars. And by the way, The quality is higher. So this is actually literally what we're talking about here. This is not when I talk to people about this idea, people like, oh, you know, this must be just cosmetic surgery. This must be low quality doctors, so on and so forth. The quality outcomes, obviously, if you search for the right ones, but are better than the United States at eighty percent, excuse me, at twenty percent of the cost and eighty percent discount. So, and this is complex heart surgeries. This is hip replacements. This is cancer treatment. There are many treatments that you can get overseas that aren't even available in the United States. So this is what we're talking about here. And so I just, you know, huge numbers of people now, fourteen million people engaging in mental tutors. It's not just from the United States to other places. And there's a whole map of people in different regions traveling to other places around the globe to get the best medical treatment. This is a massive, massive market. Medical tourism is a one hundred billion dollar annual market. It's growing at twenty five percent per year. And I hope if we have any success with what we're doing, we can help really increase those numbers. So this isn't even just this isn't a niche thing anymore. The US healthcare system is literally bankrupting people and people are sitting around waiting to die or waiting to go bankrupt using our completely broken system medical tourism dates, all the way back to. DC and i'm not going to go through all this routes, but it was I said it's a. annual growth and and what we're seeing here there are hundred million people in medical debt in the United States and. You know, we've seen a four hundred percent increase in health care. It's been doubled. You know, I had a health care company that I started in two thousand and four. And I know at the time it had been a few years in a row of double digit increases. I don't think that's stopped since two thousand and four. I mean, it's gotten to the point where this is a the number two cost item for most corporations behind salaries. It's literally eating the economy and the outcomes aren't great. In fact, I think something like two out of There were a couple of years out of five where the life expectancy declined even before COVID. So with all of them, whenever we spend four trillion dollars a year on health care, we are not getting better outcomes. The other thing is people don't understand how pricing works. So prior to twenty twenty one, it was illegal for hospitals to tell you their pricing. Bill was passed in twenty twenty one that mandated that hospitals do provide their pricing. And every hospital has what's called a charge master charge of the the price list. Well, so but there was a little typical Congress situation. There was a little carve out that says, hey, if. If you don't want to disclose this information, you have to pay a three hundred dollar a day penalty. Well, it turns out it's much cheaper to pay three hundred dollars a day. than it is to provide the information and let everybody know you're ripping them off. And so, ninety five percent of hospitals still don't make their cost information transparent. Just think about this for a second. We have no market. There is nothing market based whatsoever about our health care system. The fact that you can't even know the pricing. is horrendous. But then once you actually find out about the pricing, and I'll go through this in more detail, because I have this kind of information available on the OSR site, but you're getting ripped off. And sometimes they mark this stuff off as much as fifty five hundred percent. And you don't even know a ten cent Tylenol, you may be billed fifty seven dollars. And again, there's no relationship between what they're charging you and what it costs. There's no rhyme or reason to it other than they charge whatever they can get away with. And of course they can get away with whatever they want because there's no accountability. So every minute somebody in the United States files for medical bankruptcy and What might be more surprising is, I mean, this is two thirds of overall bankruptcies in this country are related to medical bankruptcies. Seventy five percent of those people that file for medical bankruptcy actually were insured. So this is not even a question of, oh, you know, we should have Medicare for all or force people to buy insurance. Most of the people that file for medical bankruptcy have insurance. The range of. options. I, you know, and some of the things that are just fascinating about this, there's a place in Mexico called molar city, which has, I think it's like a town of five thousand people. They have three hundred and fifty dentists. So it's obviously the highest percentage of the per capita of dentists anywhere in the world. And, you know, you can get a significant discount. What might cost sixty thousand dollars in the US is eight thousand dollars in Mexico. But when you look into it, what's happening is a lot of the best doctors in the US are actually going to these other countries because If you are a good doctor and you're in the United States, your hands are tied. You are basically told by the hospital, by the insurance company, by your medical malpractice insurance, by the industry itself, what kind of treatment options you can make available. And if you're a smart doctor, you realize that you're poisoning and killing people most of the time. So there's really no incentive. for a good doctor to stay in the United States. All of the bureaucracy and everything provides no real financial motivation to stay here. So what you're finding is that there are these concentrated pockets all over the world. India has the best heart doctors. And so, you know, where you can get a two thousand dollar bypass surgery. Thailand is great for other things. Again, we provide all this information on the site. But a lot of these are, you know, Harvard, Johns Hopkins trained medical professionals that left the US. As an example, this is a facility in India where a hundred and twenty three thousand dollar cardiac bypass surgery in the US they do for seven thousand nine hundred dollars. And not only is it that much cheaper, they actually have a ninety eight point five percent success rate, which is higher than the Cleveland Clinic, and they have a lower infection rate. than the US. And so this is common. And then there are other procedures where like German hyperthermia and so on and so forth, they're actually banned by the FDA entirely. So this idea that we're leading in medical research and we're the most innovative and the rest of the world is paying for all of our research and everything else, all of that's fake, all that's complete BS. And so you can go on and on down the line, IVF, Three thousand dollars, I think, and I don't have notes for this. I want to say it's somewhere in Eastern Eastern Europe. We'll see when we get on onto the site. You know, you can get complete, you know, executive diagnostics. You get a complete workup and exam for a fraction of the cost that you would find in the United States. And again, you get, you know, the experience for a lot of these places. I guess the best example I can say is that. lot of these medical tourist destinations are like the jetsons and our medical system is like the flintstones or another way of looking at it as you know medical tourism is like a spa and our system is like a prison you know our schools and hospitals and prisons all seem to have a very same aesthetic and and actually similar kind of incentive models obviously the detail here is in picking the facilities. You certainly can go to the wrong place. You go to the wrong place in Mexico and somebody is going to kidnap you and harvest your organs. The whole point is, you know, empowering you as the consumer to actually make a decision about your health care, which involves doing research, which is why we built the website to help you navigate through all of that and to share all of that information. So that is that is essentially where we are. So I'm going to now uh logged into the into the site or keep in mind i mean i was working on this literally as the opening music was playing so it is completely possible that uh that there are some issues and i i do expect that to be the case um as i said this is uh we're in a testing testing phase right now uh but if you can go you can go to osr.com I would recommend watching me go through it now. And so we may actually find some bugs that prevent you from even using it right now. But everything should be working. So let's see here. Just bear with me one second. I am going to have to switch. I'm going to switch windows here. All right, here we go. All right. Let me share this screen instead. All right. Share screen. All right. Let's see what's going on here with the loading. All right. Something's loading. Let me see. I'm actually going to have to log in again. All right, bear with me one second. I made a last minute change to the way that the login system works. By the way, one of the things that I'm doing for all of the sites is I'm implementing this magic link concept. You might've seen this. Instead of having to actually have a password, you just have it send a link to your email and then you click on the link and that has you log in. So I wanna move away from even having a database with passwords and doing all that other stuff. And eventually you're gonna be able to log in to all of these sites actually using your Zaino wallet. Although it is helpful to have the... email address so that I can stay in touch with people, but I'm going to be moving towards using Zeno and using matrix, uh, which is a decentralized social networking tool that you can log into with your Zeno wallet to, to preserve your privacy. So, so, uh, anyway, that, that will be, that will be happening soon. So I'm going to, I'm just re, uh, deploying something here. and should have the page back up here in a second all right well in any event um i'm also going to put the link if you want to join Rich D' The chat i'll start sending that out now as well, if you want to join. Rich D' The live chat. Rich D' We can even go through some of this together because there's actually there's quite a bit to. Rich D' Hopefully, to show. Rich D' So let me just send around a couple of links here. Rich D' There we go. Oh, a couple of our regulars aren't gonna be able to make it. So let me see here, just gonna... Bear with me, and my wife is not here yet either, so we are launching this together, but she may be in, depending on how long this goes, she might be able to join us, but possibly, possibly not. So here we go, let's see. All right, good, now we got it. All right. Just let me share the correct window. Here we are. All right, there we go, osr.com. So this is the main site, obviously very simple message. You can save sixty to eighty percent on medical procedures. You can compare JCI accredited facilities. For some reason, it's not. I'm going to be debugging this in real time. All right. Try this one more time. All right, I'm going to re-disable this real quick. Excuse me, the login is not the important part for demonstrating this. So this should only be another, hopefully, minute or two. But anyway, there's quite a bit that we can walk through here today. And as I said, the point is to get feedback, not only on what you see, but what you don't see. So if there are other ideas that you have about the site or other features that we could add, you can add those as well. And so we won't necessarily accept all of them or we'll not necessarily accept all of them now. What I will show you is that there is, again, a bounty program where you can contribute your ideas. And if we accept your ideas, depending upon the kind of idea that it is, you can earn certain values in Freedom Dollar. So that's exciting. And I already know I want to add some more community features and some additional content more than we have. here at the launch. But nevertheless, I wanted to make you aware of that. And let's see if this works. So... Oh, this is in motion. All right, well, I'll go through the parts that I can go through while we're waiting for this other stuff. What I will show you is the main part of this, which are the various facilities, five hundred and eighteen facilities. But I'll start off with the easy part. So I'll start off with the guide. So this guide is an intelligence center that basically provides an overview of what medical tourism is. And we already talked about some of this, but this is very important information. to share with people who are largely unaware of this entire situation. This charge master concept is really important. So again, this is the hidden price list that each hospital has. So this is an actual example of a real charge master. The source on this is the RAND Corporation Hospital pricing survey. So you can see this is from a real hospital charging for Tylenol They charge thirty seven dollars for Tylenol and the cost is ten dollars. That's a thirty seven thousand percent markup. Surgical clubs. Fifty three dollars. Actual cost. Seventy five dollars. Alcohol swap. A simple alcohol swap. They charge twenty three dollars. And again, understand. And we had somebody on in the live chat. I think on Monday. And I'm sure probably many of you, I'd love to hear your own experiences. And one of the things that I want to add to this site is for the ability for people to share. their own personal experiences with the medical system because they go out of their way to not provide transparency. They hide the pricing and then they don't want people talking about it. So I want to create a site where people can share their medical bills. I mean, we should be shaming this system because usually what will happen is, I mean, somebody is going to get a bill and then they're going to freak out about it because they might actually have to file for bankruptcy because of this medical bill and they're embarrassed to talk about it. But at the same time, this is just because we've created this culture where we have no transparency and apparently people have no expectation that they're going to have transparency, which is, is ridiculous in something that is pretty counter to the way, excuse me, any other market works. And so one of the things that I want this site to be is interactive. I want people sharing information the way that we win. is transparency. It's providing a real marketplace and a place where people can actually share information. Every law that you see, whether it's a Republican or a Democrat, they're going to either be protecting the government or they're going to be protecting a carve-out for crony industry players. And they actually swap sides as to which ones are protecting which side. I'll give you an example. This guy, Rick Scott, is a senator from Florida. And he's painted as this economic conservative. And so he's on all of these panels and he's like one of the go-to guys that people think is supposed to be economically literate. And he made all of his money in some company that was involved in Medicare fraud. I mean, these people have no set of principles, no set of understanding of market dynamics. They may have manipulated the system to make themselves money. But the Republican solution is not any better than the Democrat solution. The system is fundamentally flawed. It cannot be fixed. We need a new system. We need multiple new systems. We need actually markets that aren't destroyed by cronyism and government. And instead, right now, what we're getting is the opposite. We're getting more government. Government now makes up percent of overall healthcare costs. And so that's through HHS, that's through Medicare, Medicaid, and the VA. And at one point, it actually, I think during COVID, crossed over and was more than fifty percent. So, you know, that's crazy. So anyway, I'll continue to go through here. All right, so the device markup conspiracy. Again, and we're even talking about situations here where when you're looking at this and comparing this from a global marketplace perspective, we're talking about comparing apples to apples. We're not even talking about, hey, a hip implant in the US may cost a lot more, but it's a different quality, different vendor. Well, that's not even the case. I mean, when you compare apples to apples, people are getting ripped off. So in a Belgium hospital, a Medtronic hip implant or excuse me, actually, yeah, in Belgium, it's three hundred and fifty dollars. In Mexico, it's twelve hundred dollars. In Thailand, it's eighteen hundred dollars. And in the US, it's thirteen thousand dollars. So we're talking about the same factory, the same serial number, literally the same device. And insurance actually makes it worse. So, again, I haven't explained this in more detail in other episodes, but insurance doesn't There's nothing in the way that they're regulated in the way that they're allowed to charge for things that would cause or incentivize them to make things less expensive. So if you actually look at this, um, based on the way that the Obamacare was drafted, there's this eight, which means insurance companies get to keep. Of all healthcare spending as. Profit. I mean, again, like talk about a unholy alliance of government and corporate interests. They basically said, hey, you know, here's the new here's the new pricing framework. You just get to keep twenty percent of the spending as profit. Well, so actually think about how that works. So then what is the incentive? The incentive is to have higher spending. The higher the spending is, the more money the insurance company is going to make. So higher hospital prices actually equals higher insurance profits. Again, this is not a market. This is an absurd situation. So I had looked at this at one point, I'd investigated the prospect of trying to build a cash only situation in the US or crypto based system. And what I found was after talking to doctors and researching the situation, there's because of the way that malpractice insurance works and everything else, most doctors have to work within possible systems. And once you work within the hospital system, you are subject to not get the rules of the hospital itself, which because of the way a lot of other funding works means you now have to take Medicaid patients. You can only take certain payment methods. You have to follow whatever the rules and procedures are. So it's a real outlier situation. It's a very small, very small percentage of doctors that you might even be able to find that can take cash that are outside of these other Agreements so you look at something like an appendectomy insurance will bill thirty five or two be forty five thousand dollars the cash price If you can find that it's three thousand childbirth thirty two thousand dollars is what they build insurance forty five hundred dollars is the cash price me MRI thirty two hundred dollars for insurance four hundred dollars is the cash price so This is This is just absolutely outrageous and And by the way, as this is going on, I have a live bankruptcy counter going. So as I said, every minute, so I guess we've been talking about this now for seven minutes, seven people in the United States have filed for medical bankruptcy. It'll be interesting to see at the end of the night where that is. So again, the numbers, two thirds of all US bankruptcies, five hundred and thirty thousand families file annually due to medical bills. The average medical debt at bankruptcy is forty two thousand dollars. And then on top of that, you have forty five thousand dying annually from a lack of health insurance. And so so again, you know, when you hear the political arguments, when you hear the right and the left talking about it, they'll say, well, you know, it's the this is part of the rationale for having Obamacare in the first place. Well, it's these uninsured that are it's the uncompensated care from the uninsured. I fought this in New Hampshire. It was a BS argument then, and it's proven to be BS. It was never a good argument, but these are the Republican talking points of why it makes sense to have these people in these risk pools, you know, so that you don't have all these free riders and all of this uncompensated care. Well, it turns out that's not really what the problem is. These people going bankrupt had health insurance, seventy five percent, sixty two percent had a college education, seventy seven percent were homeowners. And that, by the way, is part of the other scam in all of this, which we'll talk about when we discuss setting up a medical trust. But yeah, the hospital will end up owning your house. So tie people to these mortgages, and the house then becomes a piggy bank for the medical system to basically rape and pillage when you're going through these medical bankruptcies. Anyway, sorry, I'm still debugging. I'm going through the stuff that works while I'm debugging. All right, good, we're back. So I'm happy to see that. So now here's another myth. So when you're talking to people about this, ask people what they think about the quality of healthcare in the US and just see what you get back. See how many say, well, the US has the best healthcare in the world. This is objectively not true. The US is actually ranked thirty seventh. We haven't been first in the entire time I've been involved in health care. We've never been. I mean, maybe there was a time we were first, I guess maybe after World War Two or something. But these health care rankings have been have been horrendous. I mean, they were bad in two thousand. They were bad in the nineties. So. I want to remind people of how much propaganda we're fed in the United States from the media, from politicians and from these corporate interests, because our health care is not great at all. You know, just to give you some snapshot examples here, here's the surgical site infection rates. So at this facility, Bumrungrad International in Thailand, which is one of the best facilities out there. Surgical infection rate is point five percent. U.S. hospital average is one point nine percent and some have as high as four point two percent surgical site infection rates. So you can go through this and we will. And as you'll see, we have information on a lot of different procedures that you can compare and contrast. And we're going to continue to add more and more and more data. So we're putting more data into this into the system. every day. So here's a guide to the treatment centers, excuse me, to the treatments themselves. So we kind of give you a breakdown. And what you find with this, it's, you know, it's not surprising. Different countries specialize in different things. And so, you know, once you're armed with that, you know, so for instance, and by the way, a lot of this stuff shocked me when I went in doing the research for this. I was stunned by not only the size of the market, but just where some of this is emerging. And there are new countries coming on all of the time that have realized that, hey, this is a great niche that we can carve out. So something like dental, where a full mouth restoration in the US costs sixty thousand dollars, you can go down to Molar City in Mexico and pay eight thousand to twelve thousand. It's nine thousand to thirteen thousand in Hungary, ten to fifteen thousand in Costa Rica. So, I mean, if you think about that, so a lot of people, they say, well, I can't afford to go there because of the travel. Well, I mean, if it's forty eight thousand dollars less expensive, how much does it cost to go to Mexico? I want to put that in perspective. The rip off rate of what you're actually charged here is, I mean, yeah, you could take a private jet. and still end up ahead. This is how dramatically different the prices are in these different destinations. And I'm not going to go through all of this, but just I'm going to show you just some example. I mean, we go through in the in the guide. All kinds of different procedures. And this is dental and cosmetic. We go into, excuse me, dental, well, dental and cosmetic related to dental, general cosmetic surgery, cardiac surgery, orthopedic surgery, fertility and IVF. And we're going to continue to add more guides. So you're going to be able to drill down and get more and more details so that you can very quickly figure out, you know, which countries you should look at. And obviously I'll show you the tools that we have to help you even further to navigate all of this. But, you know, something like heart bypass surgery, where it's a hundred and twenty three thousand dollars in the United States. I said in the earlier part of the presentation, you go to India and have a ninety eight point five percent success rate pay seventy nine hundred dollars. So, I mean, we're talking about literally the difference between whether you're alive or dead and or whether or not you're bankrupt or not. This is how this isn't like, oh, well, hey, I say ten percent. You know, this isn't like a Geico commercial or something. This is this is lifesaving and financial financially saving differences. Heart valve replacement, you can save eighty eight to ninety four percent. Angioplasty, eighty four to ninety four percent. And so, you know, just the list, the list goes on and on and on, you know, spinal fusion. And so, you know, what's amazing about this is just. Well, because the truth is, unless you've gone through one of these procedures, you don't know how much it costs because nobody publishes their pricing. So it's always sticker shock. And so the only people that know how much these procedures cost are people that have gone through it. So, again, this is a high level guide. We're going to continue to build upon it and then give you also the complete country intelligence so that you can learn about which to me again was fascinating to learn about how some of these countries came to be destinations. And it turns out Thailand is the number one place that is the medical tourism capital of the world. They see two and a half million people annually. They do eight point seven billion dollars. They have sixty four hospitals there. And you're typically going to see a sixty to seventy percent savings. So why Thailand? So what happened here? So basically there was a government mandate. since the nineteen ninety seven Asian financial crisis. I don't know if you remember that whole currency crisis situation that happened in the late nineties. And so this became part of a national strategy to basically lift up the entire country. So it became, you know, their mandate was to become the medical hub of Asia. And so you can get a thirty day visa. on arrival from most countries. English is widely spoken in the hospitals. They have two hundred plus U.S. board certified surgeons. So I want to stress again, if you're like, well, I don't want to go there because this is somebody that they don't speak the language. They weren't trained. I'm getting like third rate service. Absolutely none of that is true. And the guides that we put together and the tools that I'll show you, we only have currently We only put in the facilities, the five hundred and eighteen facilities around the world that are JCI accredited. So we're going to add more. But I want to figure out how we do the the measurement and reputation management system for this. So we're going to be adding I want to launch with what is safe and then we're going to continue to add more and more along the lines. So the top facilities, I mentioned this Bumrungrad International five hundred and eighty thousand People per year, they see the best, you know, if you're going to Thailand, you're going to go there for cardiac, dental, executive health screenings, gender reassignment, which is probably not too surprising. And then IVF, where they have a higher success rate than most places. And, you know, again, this, you realize if you've been into a hospital, it's everything that they do. It's like they didn't think about whether it's going to improve your health. You go into these hospitals, it's nothing but blue light. They serve you orange juice and they give you sugar and carbs. The food in hospitals, it's not just that it sucks in terms of quality, it's that it's actually not healthy. It's not like it's a situation where it's, oh, I'm going to go to the hospital and they're going to give me fresh fruits and grass-fed whatever. The food is really low quality sugar, which of course they'll also charge you an arm and a leg for. I remember my dad, my dad passed away in twenty twelve and he was in the hospital and out of the hospital for a few weeks. And I remember the hospital that we were at, it was in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. They had a McDonald's and I believe they had a Dunkin Donuts. in the actual hospital. So, which by the way, that was probably higher, more nutrient dense food than he was getting from the actual hospital itself. But I mean, think about the idea that there's a McDonald's inside of a hospital. Like we've completely lost the plot. So anyway, Thailand is number one. But then we have other emerging destinations. Colombia is on the rise for cosmetic surgery, Malaysia. You have Singapore, which is considered to be the Mayo Clinic of Asia. And Poland is on the rise as well with generally regarded as having EU quality at fifty percent savings. We also provide here planning tools and these planning tools are going to become more sophisticated and easier to interact with over time. But explaining to you, because a lot of people have fear excuse me, fear of, well, hey, I'm sick, or I need a major medical procedure, and now I'm traveling abroad, and all the anxiety that that might bring up. And so we have guides here and toolkits to help you with that in terms of what you need regarding passports, medical records, current medication lists, insurance cards, even if not covered, powers of attorney, recent imaging, blood work, and so forth. And we go through the details of when to get a medical visa versus when just getting a tourist visa is sufficient and what the breakdown is there by country as well. So again, these tools are going to become much more sophisticated and customized. You'll be able to have kind of your own profile and so forth moving on. The other thing is there's such a thing as medical tourism insurance. And one thing that I found in researching this is that it's gotten so bad that a lot of Fortune five hundred companies have started to cover medical tourism. So the costs here are so bad. And again, from a corporation perspective, my healthcare company sold two corporations. And again, because we were trying to address one of their major pain points, which is the fact that next to salaries, healthcare costs are the number two cost cost drivers. So a lot of companies now are offering insurance to send their employees overseas for these kinds of treatment. But you can also buy other kinds of insurance for medical tourism. You can get something called MedJet Assist, which is medical evacuation to your home hospital. That's three hundred ninety nine dollars a year. And again, I'm going to put together more vendors and do a more comprehensive analysis of this. There's something called Seven Corners, which will help with complications from planned procedures. Something called Global Protective Solutions, which provides surgery-specific complications. And then Allianz Travel, which provides emergency medical and evacuation. So understand that there really are options here. And as I was saying before, a lot of self-funded plans. So if you're not familiar with self-funded, most large corporations are self-funded, meaning they actually are financially on the hook for their own medical plan. So you may work for a Fortune five hundred company and you have Blue Cross Blue Shield United Healthcare. But the role that Blue Cross Blue Shield United Healthcare is playing is an administrative one only. So because they're set up to actually handle the billing, if you want to call it that, they're handling the administration of the care. But the actual financial liability is being borne by the employer. So a lot of these self-funded plans, eight percent now, the Fortune five hundred offer medical tourism, Walmart, Lowe's, Pepsi cover this, HSA, FSA. Some of these are HSA, FSA eligible. So again, there's a lot of really interesting information to dig in here. And then we have kind of a recovery timeline by procedure. And so all of this information, the longer that we're doing this, we're going to have very granular information on every procedure that you can imagine. And then we're going to have all of what you can expect in terms of the stay duration and how long until you're recovered enough to be safe to fly, when you're going to be able to return to work. We're going to have all of that information broken down. But right now, we just have kind of some of the high level for dental, cosmetic, and other procedures. We also give you a checklist of questions to ask the facilities. I'll show you how the site works and how you can sort through the facilities. But if I could say one thing about what we're trying to do here is that the whole point of everything that we're doing daylight and all of the stuff that we're working on is this, that you are responsible for your own health. And the whole point is to empower you, but you still have to do the work. Our goal is to provide tools to connect you to the information, but you are still in the driver's seat. And that may sound like, well, yeah, of course, but that's literally not how our healthcare system works right now at all. We have very little agency. We have very little say in our healthcare. Most people have healthcare through their employer because of the way that it's structured legally. And then depending upon the insurance plan that you have, the doctors that you can pick from are already pre-decided by the health plan selected by your employer. Are you in an HMO? Are you in a PPO? What kind of setup that determines what's even available to you? And again, you're not allowed to know the costs in advance. So right now we have this very much paternalistic situation where we're treated as lowly patients who are kind of subject to whatever decisions the government and our employer has made for us. This flips that on its head. And by the way, I will say from a mental perspective, you should look at this as you are a consumer, you're spending your money. So instead of this kind of arrogant, approach that we have from the medical community where you know trust the science the doctor knows best it's now shop around find out what the pricing is ask all of these questions we're going to provide data and use these tools to crowdsource more information as well but but if you're going to go in there you know even though you've done the research ask them how you know ask the doctor how many of this particular procedure you perform what's your success rate what's your infection rate Who's your specific surgeon? And by the way, the beauty of this system, when you look into these things, they actually have this data. They publish this data. Our system is loath to actually provide healthcare outcome data. I mentioned that I went to this thing called the World Healthcare Congress, and I think, panel discussion and the doctor was on there saying, well, we don't even think that we should have these websites where the patient can review the doctor because the patient isn't qualified to review the doctor. If I'm a doctor providing a complex procedure, whereas some other doctor that's in a related category is providing something that's very simple and has a high success rate and
