For those of you participating in Advantage plans..UHC is making changes, which could be great for members but in meantime, Full-year 2025 revenues were $447.6 billion, up from the $400.3 billion reported in 2024.
THEY ARE STILL MAKING PROFITS AND TAKING HANDOUTS FROM MEDICARE....as we know..MEDICARE is federally funded and paid to from our years of work. So..why are advantage plans sitting with hands out when is profiting in billions but are your medications being paid for??????? . Education regarding your policy is ever so important!!!

High cholesterol is evident in this lab draw. Patients often think they should be able to "feel" something different when there are lab changes. Here is proof.

My patients know to not apologize for crying! I keep good Kleenex in the office!
The most common human reaction to crying is: “I’m sorry” especially when we’re not fully comfortable with the person

What does healthcare look like to you? Has it been scary, someplace where you were made to feel rushed, felt like a number or like you weren’t being heard? I started Soluna Holistic Healthcare to CHANGE what healthcare means to my patients. I strongly believe in disease prevention and unfortunately we’re a culture of chasing chronic disease. We are all beholden to the “Mighty Insurance” companies but I have my magic ways. I want to get in front of any potential for disease and not be reactionary. My model of care is different than other clinics and we are creating a culture of mutually agreed upon healthcare, disease prevention and health promotion.
With regards to the mutual participation of healthcare, I don’t call in refills for one year. I don’t order labs and not follow up and that’s the same for imaging such as a bone density. Adults (well no one honestly) do NOT learn through shame or threats of horror stories. I don’t bark “quit smoking or lose 10 pounds before your next appointment”, instead, it’s a conversation about health promotion. I do NOT refer my patients to nutritionist. I spend one on one time with everyone and empower them to make changes. I’ll be your healthcare cheerleader. With this being said, Soluna isn’t a match for everyone. I am a very hands on provider and my long time patients understand that. For me, this is how I can change those negative perspectives of healthcare and turn it into a positive experience. Plus, with this model of care, my patients lose weight, are taken off medications, have mental health diagnosis well managed and start to learn how to participate in healthcare. My objective- to empower my patients to take charge of their healthcare. I hear them come back and tell me how they’ve advocated for themselves; my heart smiles and so do their faces.
To be a healthcare provider is an honor. I am blessed and the honor comes from the trust hundreds of patients have placed in my hands, referred me their loved ones, the secrets they are comfortable enough to confide and gratitude on their faces when they are empowered. I often hear “I’ve never told anyone that story in my life.” Without judgement, I receive their stories. Patients should be allowed to be vulnerable and feel safe. An example, if I’m coaching a diabetic patient on weight loss and nutrition, without judgement we discuss their full diet, eating history and vices so a plan can be formulated. This brings up the Holistic part of Soluna. Holistic, care of the WHOLE person. No one is just a medical diagnosis.
Over the last 4 years, I’ve spent zero dollars in advertising and have become a referral only provider. Soluna is growing and with the amount of new patients who are calling, we are more strictly enforcing our office policies. As mentioned above, this isn’t going to be the healthcare setting for everyone and that’s ok. There are amazing providers out there. The more we grow, it’s become quite burdensome to pursue patients for overdue labs, incomplete imagining orders and demands for medication refills when office policy is clear that with most patients, every 3 -6 months, an appointment is expected. Over the years, jokes are made that providers just want the copay or to bill the insurance. This is fallacious and will not be tolerated. Our goal is to promote wellness. I don’t think anyone tells the mechanic they’re just after the money when the car needs an oil change. A co-pay is a contract between the patient and their own insurance company. As a provider, we can’t not waive copays or bill later. That would result in losing a contract with the insurance company is and is not permitted.
Etiquette: I jokingly call our current life situation the apocalypse. Since March, I’ll estimate that 80-90% of our appointments have been mental health based: anxiety, depression or stress. We are all experiencing it and being affected by this (and the heat.) I’ve posted videos online for suggestions. In regards to this, there has been a significant increase of offensive behavior to both Samantha and myself. In our office policy paperwork, we have an etiquette clause which states “We at Soluna will provide excellent patient care and also treat you with respect. It is also our expectation that our patients are respectful. If at any time behavior is shown that is offensive, threatening or harassment, the patient/provider relationship will be terminated. Any grievance that you might have, we’d urge you to speak with us immediately.” Effective immediately, this is a ZERO TOLERANCE policy. Because Soluna has grown through our patient’s referrals of friends, family and co-workers, there is more of a sense of community and comfort which is why this has become harder for Samantha and I. We 100% empathise with the overwhelming feelings and the disruption to “normal life,” but being on the receiving end has created unnecessary stress to our small practice. We have asked those to please selected another provider. Samantha is very clear when giving instructions for appointments. The last few weeks, there is an increase of noncompliance of her instructions, repetitive phone calls and voicemails. This generates replication of tasks and dismantles the flow of the work day. If you heard that that you aren’t the only client, or that someone else had needs which were greater, or to say that there are 10 calls ahead of you, would be crude and that is not the customer service that we provide.
Samantha is amazing on the phone and multitasking but this is where we really need some patience and help. Please help to relieve some burden. If you need a refill, have the pharmacy fax, if you want the fax number, use Google, if you want COVID updates, check our website, Facebook, IG and Google. Threatening to find a new provider because you can’t be seen same day, then please do. Leaving one voicemail is acceptable, leaving 4 in 12 hours will then be a suggestion to work with another provider. Our patients like Soluna for our personalized care. Samantha is one person and she goes above and beyond to help. We both do forget sometimes, I try to tell everyone, if I don’t respond to your portal message in 48 hours, send me another. We love to spoil our patients and make everyone feel VIP.
Lastly, we are slowly starting to see patients in the office. Flu vaccines should be arriving in September. If you haven’t heard of Smash Rage in Tempe, it’s an amazing place to go for therapy!
