• The founder of Cardano Criticize the American health system.
• He ordered USD $ 200 million in a medical center in Wyoming.
• Proposes patient -centered care, supported by artificial intelligence and technologies Blockchain.
• He denounces that traditional hospitals block credentials to hinder their project.

Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano and one of the first co -founders of Ethereum, He launched harsh criticism of the United States Health System. In his opinion, the model is not broken, but works as designed: to be highly profitable, even at the cost of patients.

His statements were given during an interview with COINDESK TV Within the framework of the conference Rare Evo in Las Vegas. There, the businessman decided to support his criticisms with concrete actions. Invested USD $ 200 million in a medical center located in Gillette, Wyoming, which currently serves approximately one third of the city’s population. As he explained, his vision is simple: “If they can’t pay, they are not charged.”

The incentive problem

Hoskinson said financial incentives in the American medical system are “Horrible and wrong.” He explained that doctors receive the same payment for very different consultations, which discourages long -term planning and differentiated attention. He used as an example that a doctor wins the same when treating a 75 -year -old patient with multiple conditions who, when serving a teenager with an urinary infection that requires only minutes of consultation.

He claimed that this scheme encourages chronic diseases instead of solving them. According to Hushinson, the industry has created continuous treatments that generate constant income, reducing interest in looking for definitive solutions. His analysis is based on family experience, since his father, brother, grandfather and uncle are doctors.

A patient -centered solution

The founder of Cardano It seeks to transform this panorama with a model that places the patient in the center. To do this, it proposes multidisciplinary care teams supported by artificial intelligence and blockchain, with the aim of offering accessible and personalized care.

In this scheme, the AI ​​would not replace doctors, but would work as a support tool. Hoskinson stated that intelligent systems can analyze global medical knowledge daily, detect interactions between drugs, audit in real time and transcribe medical visits. He even mentioned that they could evolve towards attendees that help patients interpret food labels, medicines and supplements.

Blockchain, For its part, it would allow implementing mechanisms such as selective revelation and zero knowledge tests, guaranteeing data privacy while legal and administrative requirements are met. In addition, the project contemplates freeing the protocols and software to facilitate its replica in other places.

Obstacles and institutional resistance

However, Hoskinson said he faces a strong opposition from the traditional medical system. As he denounced, local hospitals have tried to block their initiative denying credentials to recognized doctors who seek to join the project. This process may take between six months and one year, which hinders the operation of the center.

“The hospital there tries to destroy us. They do everything possible to complicate our lives,” declared. He gave as an example that even international renowned surgeons have been rejected to obtain credentials.

A personal and familiar legacy

Despite the obstacles, Hoskinson considers that this bet is part of its legacy. He said he does not seek economic profits, but to lay the foundations for a sustainable, open and centered medical care model.

“I have put USD $ 200 million of my own money in this clinic and we have worked for three years in its construction. I want to solve this problem legitimately,” affirmed. For him, the transformation of the health system is not only his personal and family project, but also “The comost important in the United States ”.
