ATLANTICO: REGULATING THE PRICE OF MEDICAL GOODS AND SERVICES
Looking squarely at what is available at the moment, today's healthcare industry is the reason many people are still alive today, with the growing number of sicknesses popping up annually and frequency at which people now fall sick, if there wasn’t a healthcare industry the current death pole number would probably be tripled of what it currently is.
Doctors, pharmacists, health centres, pharmaceutical manufacturers and even health insurance companies are the reasons people have gotten treatments to various illness, and the reason many lives have been saved.
The existence of the industry dates backs to centuries ago, and it’s even stated according to some online data that the traditional healthcare industry which was done through the use of herbs started in the following countries.
- India
- Egypt and
- China amongst others.
Till date these countries are still amongst the leading medical practitioners of our time. The healthcare industry despite its many benefits has long being plagued by the high price of medical tools/equipment’s, goods and services due to the excessive middlemen in the industry and the greed which has plagued this generation.
Many sick people have been left for dead just because they couldn’t afford to pay for their medical bills, and this has been a major occurrence in countries whose government do not support the healthcare industry.
In some part of the world, in some hospitals a patient’s life could be hanging on a tiny thread and the hospitals doctors and nurses who are suppose to have value for life could watch the patient die just because they cannot afford medical bills. Believe it or not this is happening to people even as I write this article, and this is the major reason I feel the world thoroughly needs the ATLANTICO platform. Since there is currently no law which regulates the price of medical goods and services, ATLANTICO is here to do it amongst other benefits.
WHAT IS ATLANTICO ABOUT?
ATLANTICO is the world ever first decentralized medical platform built on blockchain technology, and is set to regulate the price of healthcare goods and services through its innovative platform.
HOW ATLANTICO INTENDS TO ACCOMPLISH THIS
ATLANTICO will be fostering connection between all healthcare entities worldwide with patients. This way, simply with the use of the platform’s mobile application, patients will be able to locate the nearest health centres closest to them which facilitates not just an affordable service but offers a standard healthcare service as well.
This connection will also enable the connection of patients to pharmacies who sell drugs at the current market price at not inflated by customer greed and selfishness. ATLANTICO knows the value of life, which is why they will be carrying out a deep background research on every health centre seeking to come on board the platform to ensure they truly uphold value for life before letting them be a part of the platform.
Regardless of the background study carried out on various platforms, the platform will also have a voting system which will let patients and every other user of the platform vote on the service being rendered by various health centres they have visited or closest to them based on their price and efficiency.
CONCLUSION
In order to further bring down price of health care goods and services, the platform will be making use of its own cryptocurrency known as ATL Token, which will be used solely as the medium of payment on the platform.
The platform intends to take advantage of the vitality of cryptocurrencies, and are currently offering the ATL Token on crowd sales which gives patients the opportunity to purchase as much tokens as they can for a lot less cheaper price that the token will come to be when the platform fully launches.
