RE: Canadian healthcare company gets bitcoin friendly for privacy reasons
Canada has universal health care. If you are a resident you don't pay for doctors visits. Why would this company offering bitcoin as a preferred payment method over credit cards even be a consideration in our country? If you don't trust your doctor you can interview any others who are accepting new clients until you find one that you are comfortable with. This post confuses and upsets me. I don't know any Canadians who pay for in country medical care.
As far as I get it, these folks provide services to people abroad as well, not just to Canadians. And some are ready to pay money to ensure their privacy, in case they are even afraid to see a doctor (as their CEO says).
