It pumps no blood, thinks no thoughts, moves no muscles. On a graph, human dignity is challenging to measure, and often it is hard to recognize. Nonetheless, we pursue it relentlessly since it is so vital to all human beings and deeply connected to human health. Every member of our society deserves to walk through this life with our heads held high. However, illness has a way of disrupting our dignity, stealing away our lives. We envision a future where we gain control of our health, allowing us to live the life we were born to live, to realize our individual potential.

 

Healthcare providers like Biotime often, ask and answer seemingly impossible questions. What if I could find out my son or daughter had an accidental injury right after they were pulled from the game? What if I could know I wasn’t infectious before I gathered with my family? What if I could know I was at a greater risk for an impending heart attack? These are some of the what-ifs we’ve already solved but there are more. What if we could end malnutrition with an early-stage testing? What if we could stop a pandemic before it starts? What if everyone had access to affordable care even in the farthest reaches of the world? Our path is to seek out even the questions that have yet to be asked.

 

We all deserve a life free of disease, to be able to cross a room without help, to know that our hearts beat steady and strong, and to live our lives with a steady step. At this moment of time technology is changing faster than ever before, people are living longer than ever before and Biotime is using technology to ensure that those longer lives are lived to the fullest. This is human powered health and it’s all about unlocking the possibility of you.

 

Healthcare providers, physicians are charged with the tremendous responsibility of caring for patients. Within this dynamic, patients believe that doctors will act within the best interest of their health and will uphold patient health. The nature of this doctor-patient relationship places patients in a vulnerable position, requiring them to place a great deal of trust in their healthcare providers.

 

Based on a 2021 The University of Chicago Harris/AP-NORC poll, 70% of respondents trust their doctors. Similarly, a Pew Research Center survey, 74% of Americans have a predominantly positive view of their doctors. In this survey, 57% reported feeling that doctors have a patient’s best interests in mind, 49% sufficiently diagnose and treat conditions, and 48% give fair and accurate advice.

Pew Research Center also points out the most people who saw a health provider about an illness, 87% of their symptoms or concerns were carefully listened to. 84% of them felt their doctor really cared about their health/wellbeing. 80% of them got all the information they needed about their treatment. 23% of them felt rushed by their health care provider. 15% of them were confused about their instructions for treatment.

Patients Believe That Trust Must Be Earned and Maintained

On another note, merely 15% felt that doctors were forthright regarding conflicts of interest with industry groups, and only 12% believed that doctors honestly reported mistakes made during care. According to the survey’s authors, trust must be earned and maintained, with communication and interpersonal skills at the helm of the physician-patient relationship.
