We Have a Dream ~ Health Care Affordable for Everyone
The Sanctity of the Doctor Patient Relationship
Nothing is more personal, more private, and more important than the relationship between a doctor and their patient. Third parties – the bureaucracies, health insurance providers and corporate interests have encroached on the sanctity of this relationship for multiple generations.
Healthcare costs involve 1/6th of the American economy. The stakes are high.
We are a fully physician run organization seeing patients virtually every day – no bureaucrats or academics here. We create a platform to share with policy makers the real world impact of regulation and law on the care of patients and the doctors trying to heal.
