I dropped health insurance more than four years ago and have never looked back.

Once you understand how the incentives of corporate hospital systems and health insurance providers are misaligned with end consumers you realize that opting out is the only option.

Do you use CrowdHealth or are you just raw dogging life?

I've been on healthshare and DPC for more than a decade

So does that mean you or your family don't go to the doctor? Or you just pay "cash" for it?

Insurance is the final boss. What’s your alternative? Rawdog? It’s very hard to navigate USA without insurance. I’d like to opt out.

What if you end up in the hospital and get crippling medical bill after your stay? I don't want to have health insurance, but if I end up in the hospital for like twee weeks because of a bizarre accident or something I would go bankrupt.

More than four years ago, I dropped health insurance and never looked back. I use that money to buy Bitcoin every month.

Americas health care sucks but compare it to other countries like Canada and it looks great lol My friend works for crap wages in Canada, pays way too much in taxes to pay for others healthcare and never goes to the doctor himself Now that’s really fucked up

same here, fuck them. by the time I need healthcare, the price for it in Bitcoin will go down so much I can pay full price.

How do you manage in the event of an emergency medical situation, though? The cost of even basic surgery is beyond my reach without insurance…

Terrible advice unless you are wealthy enough to self-insure. Carrying insurance to potentially cover a catastrophic injury doesn't mean you're giving your body to the system.

This is where nostr:nprofile1qqsq0rqv0z34umfmc2g23cqfw9zwr47ywxq47glge7smpq4cpd2zf4qpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv9uqsuamnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dshscvcu6g has been so great. I’m proud to be uninsured and funding people directly. It’s all about incentive structures.

For health really on God, pray for it, eat healthy, sleep well don't do stupid experiments with body, be clean from inside and outside. That's the only hack humans following from 10000 years, Insurance is modern scam.

I too opted out 5 years ago. There are health shares available if you’re generally healthy to start

Also don’t forget in some states if you opt out you have to pay a penalty for every month you are uncovered to the state 🤡🌎

This is why I ayurveda 😁 I prefer my medical advice from someone who is motivated by karma, the results of their actions, rather than profits. #foodismedicine #ayurveda #wholebodyhealth
