A New Way to Pay for Healthcare
Addressing access and costs for patients
[Nairobi, Kenya]: Snark Health today announced the release of their app on Google Play. Snark Health is creating a new funding mechanism to help patients pay for their healthcare, without the need for health insurance.
“We are excited with the progress on our journey to improving access and lowering costs for patients,” says Hank Selke, a doctor and CEO at Snark Health. “Patients should not go broke or die prematurely because they don’t have health insurance.”
Features and benefits include:
Patients pay a sliding scale down to $0 to see a doctor
Patients have access to our novel health savings vehicle and earn money through their participation
Access to “Know Your Numbers” to monitor and improve your health
Patients with insurance can earn passive income
Doctors serve more funded patients and earn passive income
Snark Health app will be available starting April 13th, 2022, at no cost to download. To download the app, visit Google Play (Patient App https://bit.ly/snarkpatientapp ; Doctor App https://bit.ly/snarkdoctorapp )
About: Snark Health’s mission is to improve access and lower costs for patients. We do this through our Hippocratic Coin® alternative payment model using at-risk contracting, liquidity pools, de-identified “data as a common resource” and our novel health savings vehicle without the need for health insurance. Patients pay a sliding scale down to $0 to see a doctor. If doctor charges $0, then doctor earns majority of the data monetization. If doctor chooses to be paid, then Snark Health or liquidity provider is the payer and earns the majority of the data monetization. If patient pays the consult fee, then the data monetization earnings are split between patient, doctor, and Snark Health. Visit https://snarkhealth.com to learn more.
