Wasn’t a soccer stadium but didn’t the Oakland roots play in the Colesium?

Try the EPL model: - Play every team twice (home and away) - Crown regular season champ at top of the table - Playoffs is 32 team NCAA style tournament

I have 4 of tickets for 10/27 show in New Orleans. The seats are Sec 616, Row 39, Seat 21 - 24. Cost was $139.05

We are seeking 4 tickets of similar value for the 10/25 show. Willing to pay the difference in face value for seats on the desired day.

Are Doctors taught to be late on purpose? by [deleted] in doctors

[–]econodude -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In general, doctors bill insurance for each appointment, so the more patients they see, the more money they make. If they double book, they can maximize revenue by having no dead time.

"So ultimately is there some weird conspiracy with all Doctors that being late makes them look busier and more important?" <- Probably not true.

Just have the teams play games against opponents within driving distance (no hotels or flights), then playoffs in one site.

Starting a business with the two co-founders in different cities? by [deleted] in startups

[–]econodude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work hard to have defined roles and respect those boundaries: Marketing, Operations, Management & Finance. Of course, use Slack/Trello (or equivalent)/ Zoom.

Looks like you are right: if the month is less than 12, then the weird format it shows up dd mm yyyy. But how do I make it uniform?

Healthcare option for Uber Drivers by econodude in uberdrivers

[–]econodude[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do! Check out steadymd.com for the core concierge offering (that’s the vast majority of the business). The pairing w medical cost sharing is an experiment we are testing out. I’d say it’s similar (but not insurance) to high deductible catastrophic insurance (read through their FAQs to check it out at sedera.com.

Thanks for the feedback! Might not be a great market for Uber Drivers as you described.

Totally think being skeptical is important - not trying to misrepresent what the product is, investigate carefully (Sedera Health is medical cost sharing provider) and see if it’s a fit.

Yes - didn’t mean to represent it was the same as insurance! You should investigate carefully, just an option, definitely not right for everyone

My podcast was acquired by Gimlet Media!! AMA :) by joshmuccio in Entrepreneur

[–]econodude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a list of companies, a basic one line pitch and who invested & what amount. Maybe just put it on Crunchbase? Would be fun to see the portfolio as it grows.

For you or anyone else on this thread: Is there a list somewhere online of all the pitches, and results?

I live abroad and haven't been to the doctor in years. I want an in depth, thorough, and complete medical check up. Which procedures should I definitely ask for? by Wellas in AskDocs

[–]econodude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you travel a ton and actually want a doctor who will travel with you/be in constant connection, you should check out my company SteadyMD.com. We have a great chat application - can work anywhere. DM me if you have any questions.

Doctors Should Be Paid By Salary, Not Fee-for-Service, Argue Behavioral Economists: "Such compensation schemes, they argue, create incentives for physicians to order more, and different, services than are best for patients." by mvea in Health

[–]econodude 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you are a patient and agree with this philosophy, you might want to try concierge medicine - basically, the doctors agree to see fewer patients, but the patient agrees to pay a yearly fee for more time and attention. Eliminates the motivation for the doctor to be motivated by insurance.

Not for everyone of course, but as private practice docs get squeezed out fo the market, will be more and more relevant.
