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.

Body Mass Index (BMI) can be used to screen for health problems. High blood pressure and type 2 diabetes often have no symptoms so it’s important to know your numbers. Over time, these conditions can cause serious health problems impacting the heart, brain, eyes and kidneys. Know your numbers.

The global response to the COVID-19 pandemic is at a critical point and requires unprecedented coordination. We are building a framework for data-driven discussions and shared learnings to help people have a greater impact at their respective local, state, national level in collaboration with their organizations and governmental agencies. Our efforts are aimed at enabling more rapid dissemination of information to improve patient outcomes. Our goal is to facilitate the exchange of knowledge, best practices, and lessons learned to support the people and organizations that are tasked with problem solving at the local level across the globe. There remain many unanswered questions in regards to the clinical, operational and financial aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the process of answering these critical questions, we are building a new framework while simultaneously laying the foundation for global triage support, improved access to health care services and clinical research.
