Healthcare Trends Shifting To Free Market Solutions And Savings.
Online, August 2, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Your daughter wakes up with an ear ache. The doctor cannot see you until next week. You've just twisted your ankle. Is it cold first then heat? It's Friday afternoon and you're wondering if you have the flu or something worse. Thankfully, most of us suffer only minor health issues yet getting the information or antibiotic needed is a major issue.
With all the energy, frustration and spinning of healthcare reform, the direct solutions seem to be overlooked. After all, is it access to affordable, timely, quality healthcare insurance or affordable, timely, quality healthcare that is needed?
Jesse Weeks, founder of Sharing USA, has always had great faith in Americans and the free market. That faith is not misplaced. Today, drug stores and other private clinics are reporting significant increases in visits (average 36%), while a recent article by the Wall Street Journal reports, "Doctor visits have declined each month this year, including a 7.6% drop in May 2010 from May 2009." The Health Research Institute unit of PricewaterhouseCoopers, a New York-based consulting firm, found that half of consumers would be willing to seek health care through the Internet, phone or other computer technology as a substitute for face-to-face, non-emergency visits.
It is clear that Americans and American businesses are able to clarify the healthcare insurance vs. healthcare question. Today, more and more Americans are finding quality alternatives in the free market to deliver what they need, when they need it and at a cost they can bear. Sharing USA is pleased to be a part of the alternative solutions to the noncritical healthcare issue.
Sharing USA Inc's Seven Family Health & Wellness program is just $14.95 per month for the entire family. The 24 Seven Family Health & Wellness program includes nine savings programs and among them is TelaDoc™, the largest and oldest provider of Telehealth. Medical consults today with Board-certified physicians and Nurses Hotline are available for when you need expert medical information and guidance without having to see a physician. Other savings programs include dental, vision, alternative healthcare, Rx, fitness, vitamins/skin care and diabetic supplies. Per its company mandate, this plan also includes a monthly 20% contribution to the charity of the purchaser's choice.
These are the sort of services that can truly reduce the costs of noncritical everyday healthcare while delivering on the timeliness and quality Americans deserve. With these services, a prescription can be waiting for you as you take your daughter with an ear ache - and now a remedy - to school. You'll know if it's the flu or if you need emergency care without waiting, wondering, and suffering through the weekend. You'll find out that it is indeed cold first, a cold compress for about 20 minutes at a time every four to six hours. Don't use heat until the swelling goes down usually two to three days later. All without a doctor visit.
