This is cool, but I feel like I need a more descriptive title and an ELI5 :)
boraginaceae··on Health care is turning into a consumer product
I really believe in this general category. Giving people healthcare that isn't a shitty experience will change the world.

I'm not confident a typical telehealth-style consultation with one of these direct-to-consumer companies is that great, but by the same token, I am confident the medical care I get in a traditional setting is mediocre. For example, the time an MD tried to convince me I couldn't be feeling pain... after I told him I was specifically there for pain.
