Q What are some of those ways to pay for healthcare in real time?
A Wow, you've got a plethora of government programs ranging from Medicaid, Medicare, you've got workers comp, you've got all kinds of government-based programs, but there are also these days, you know, tons and tons of hospital-based programs, so the hospitals need to have ways to get people to pay for their health care that can't, so they have Financial assistance programs. They have charity programs. They have cash discount programs. They have all sorts of other programs. And then finally, uh, the commercial, uh, finance markets have really stepped up to the plate in a pretty big way here, uh, providing all sorts of, uh, low interest, no interest loans to help people pay for their, pay for their hospital bills. And, and it's starting to make a difference, starting to make an impact. The hospitals need it because they need to keep their cashflow moving. Uh, patients need it because people like me, you know, You know, don't want to spend our life savings on, on, uh, on our healthcare bills. And once that's, you know, once you sort of blend all that together, pop a little AI in on top of it and a whole lot of work and, and voila, you've got a real time solution.

Q All right. What gave you the idea to do this? Did you have a health scare yourself and a bunch of medical bills or what happened?
A I have. Uh, I actually started as a healthcare administrator. I ran, uh, parts of the Health and Human Services Commission in Texas, and one thing I realized was the government in particular is really, really bad at eligibility and enrollment and all of these things that are out there, and, um, and so once I got out and, and sort of escaped, I thought, well, I'm gonna try to make, I'm gonna try to make a living in government, and then as this group grew on and on and on, I realized, you know what, you can't, Can't scale this. I can't do it. And so, and so, um, uh, as we started easing off into long-term care and easing off into the hospitals, about that time I got sick, I had cancer, had all kinds of nonsense going on and fussing and fighting with the insurance companies about what they would pay and why they would pay something and why they wouldn't. Like, this is absolutely insane. I'm not a stupid person, but I can't figure this out. Uh, so we took some of the lessons we learned from enrollment. We took Some of the lessons we learned from eligibility, uh, over the last, uh, 30 or 40 years, and really turned them into a, an AI-driven solution that helps people find ways to pay for their healthcare in real time.
