the 'data' used is pretty suspicious in this article obviously, international founders moving to america will have a better time raising money and if you're selling B2B SaaS and 90% of your customers are physically headquarte

Seems like the author is a slow metabolizer like me. Interestingly enough, it seems that the caffeine half life can be shortened by eating broccoli ( https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17266520/ ) - by having coffee in the

I had this experience making an iOS game. After a few years of making the game, I went back to it, and found that I was unable to get it to compile. I guess iOS games are very warm blooded. Perhaps if I had stuck with a desktop platform or

I think they're celebrating a little too soon. A few years ago I lived in a roach infested apartment in Seattle and we used every form of pesticide imaginable, essentially to no effect. We were finding them in our food, inside kettles,

Agree with the sentiment of this article but the disturbing ai generated images every paragraph were definitely not necessary - do people actually need to see these?

This reads like someone who think startups are structurally dependent on infinite VC money or loose spending due to low interest rates, perhaps because the writer's business is impacted. Nothing about rising interest rates prevents the

Actually, technically, it's possible that she was dead in the sense that her heart stopped at 11:59AM, and then she was revived via CPR. So maybe GPT4 is right here :)

That's a great idea / suggestion! Due to the licensing rule we avoid showing CPT codes to patients and write our own descriptions. I think we might open source that as I hate that AMA tries to charge so much for this - they don&#x

Yep, since the pricing data is publicly available, we list mostly non-partnered providers. Eventually we would want to convert all of them to partners, but that's a years long journey.

That's a great suggestion, we are planning on adding cash prices! It's a bit harder to collect them as we have to manually call all these places (not covered by the regulation).

Yeah, it's really hard to go head up against companies with 100B+ revenue (united healthcare etc) who essentially write the laws. I think this is a good space for the government to step in with progressive policies, and there are a lot

If the bill is larger than predicted, we end up covering the difference (assuming that the services we showed the user are the ones the user ended up getting). We match the prices shown in the table of 'All Covered Services' that

Thx for the encouragement! Right now we don't have relationships with a lot of these providers, but we do use the only charge when a patient shows up thing as a selling point when selling to providers - providers HATE getting charged f

Yeah, it's definitely based on probabilities. I will definitely check out careignition as this is a problem we've been struggling with for sure! For orthopedics we're aware that the range of care and CPT codes are super compl

Sure! This is something we're still figuring out as we're quire early. Would say that the APIs don't guarantee a lot, so it's up to us to piece together the story for a patient and figure out these edge cases.

Oo that's a good domain name! I think this space is pretty challenging. We actually wanted to work on this before the regulation came out and ran into similar issues - however thanks to the transparency in coverage rule, we have access

Good to hear from you. I hope that we can offer you peace of mind on pricing! We want people to not have to worry about surprise bills. We are working on sorting out the in-network/out-of-network lab situation soon as that's been

Thank you for the support! I think it is a challenging product to build for sure. We're focusing with simpler procedures that involve a few CPT codes and a single provider to make the problem easier but definitely want to figure out a

When patients enter their insurance, we have an API we use to retrieve their deductible remaining info, and then we use that to calculate their out of pocket cost that we show. And yes, we guarantee the patient responsibility! Definitely a

Just pushed up the fix! Let me know if it works? Although we're not yet operating in 19103 - so it won't be particularly exciting - but thanks! Excited to expand to your ZIP soon.
