Wouldn’t it be nice if you could re-gift your white elephant health care – the health care you received that you don’t need or want?
Ever heard of a white elephant? Like some humans, the white elephant has a rare genetic condition called albinism. This mutation affects the pigment in their skin, making the skin look much lighter.
We’re fascinated by health data and fun facts, but right now, were talking about a different white elephant. Did you receive a holiday gift that you don’t need or want? That’s a white elephant. You can save that gratuitous present and give it to someone else next year at a white elephant party.
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could re-gift your white elephant health care – the health care you received that you don’t need or want? How about that bonus MRI that was ordered when you were in the emergency room for a sprained pinkie? Or the drugs you were given that had side effects that caused more harm than good? Actually, it would be better if you could return that stuff. Sadly, there is no return policy for health care that’s delivered that we don’t need or want.
It’s up to us to reject those unwanted “gifts.” And that’s what we at KnowThyself are on a mission to do. Help you avoid health care you don’t need or want. Check out our freshly launched beta product (try it here!) and keep in touch with us as we help you get to know you!
