US private equity has its hands in healthcare here too - the small private hospital near my house is owned by one of those companies. Obviously we’re not as bad as US but scary to think those companies have an “in” here at all

It’s the main way I get healthcare now. It’s not always easy to get it here in Australia but so far I don’t think they’d dare remove it, people use it too much!

Ummm delicious idea and I’m secretly jealous I didn’t think of it 😂

This is why I started Policy to Process – because your polices are worth zero if you don’t DO anything with them!

all about chronic illness/disability and your business. Not sure what format - maybe social posts linking to a full blog post? Anyway, let me know if you’d be interested in being interviewed for it!

This afternoon I copied all the posts I had made so I had a backup. Around 33,700 words. I was feeling like it was a failure until then. That’s a lot of words I shared with the little community.
