Sam Rohrer:
Hello and welcome to Stand in the Gap Today, and it’s also our bimonthly health freedom update focus. We do that once a month, and this focus is always with my guest today, Twila Braze. She’s the president and the co-founder of Citizens Council for Health Freedom, and their website is at cchfreedom.org, and I’ll give that again a number of times. But our theme today is the continuing health freedom siege mandates, AI and corporate healthcare. Now, it’s not that we’ve never addressed these three before because they remain items that continually assault our health freedom, but updates are important and that’s a lot of what today is on these three. Now in today’s program, we’re going to provide the latest updates on these three mounting pressures that threaten individual freedom. In the first segment here, it’s going to be what I’m terming the federal government siege. Next segment, the technocratic siege.
Segment three will be the corporate healthcare takeover siege, and then we’re going to provide solutions as we always do in the last segment. Now, Twila does a health freedom minute broadcast, and you’ll hear one within this program today. We carry one every day, but that’s heard on over 800 stations as well. It’s quite good. But in one of those, she frequently isolates key threats to patient rights. And right now we face an unprecedented, what could be a challenge, it’s also an opportunity. Now here’s why I’m saying that. On August 24th, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy issued a public notice in the federal registry, and there’s a number there, Twila will get more on that, but it’s explicitly they’re asking whether federal vaccine recommendations should rest on a presumption of individual autonomy, informed consent, keywords, and religious freedom. And as Twila highlighted in her September 1st spot, 19 days to support informed consent by vaccines, that was her title.
Public comments will close here on September 20. As of that September first time, there were 720 comments filed there in those first few days. It’s important that that number grows. Now today we’re going to discuss why believers and pastors and every American should step into this docket, this opportunity to defend conscience and rights. Before I ask Twila about this specific posting and compliment her directly for her being aware of this, let me share just some facts about the postings in the federal register. Here’s an example. Here’s one. Health and human services posts on the average roughly 1,500 to 2,000 public notices every year. The vast majority of those though are routine notices such as meetings, but this one is different. This August 24th notice where they’re asking open-end structural policy laden questions by all account is considered, and I check this on numerous sources, extremely rare.
That makes it significant. Thus, one would think that the federal government, policy makers and legislators and media would be shining the light on it and making everybody know here’s an opportunity you’ve never had before type thing, but not so. Anyways, Twila, thank you for catching this and making it known and I want to talk to you more about it, but welcome aboard again.
Twila Brase:
Well, thank you. Always glad to be here. Thank you.
Sam Rohrer:
Twila, first explain what this public notice on August 24th is all about and what’s it supposed to accomplish. And just out of curiosity, who prompted it? Did it come out of the mind of RFK, the secretary or somebody else?
Twila Brase:
Well, probably RFK, but there was an executive order on August 10th called Delivering Gold Standard Childhood Vaccine Recommendations for Americans. And then 14 days later came this request for information asking the public a whole variety of questions, but the key ones which are so unusual talk about the fact that they want to know whether or not individual autonomy, religious freedom, and just individual consent should be any part of what the federal government requires as part of their federal vaccine policy. And so the interesting thing about this is that they say that there’s been basically three things, three categories that impact policy, just universal recommendations, risk-based recommendations, and then recommendations related to individual-based decision making. And they’re wondering, should there be more categories? And then regarding the recommendations, should they look at the availability of scientific evidence? Should they figure out whether or not there’s enough evidence and then make decisions based on that reality?
And should they presume in favor of individual autonomy, religious freedom and individual consent? And so this is really amazing because as everybody knows during COVID, this was not the case and it’s still not the case today. And hospitals and other healthcare facilities can still force people to take vaccines as can the military. And so this is why the public has to engage on this issue.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. It seems kind of interesting to me that at the one hand this is happening, but at the same time, I think it was the FDA, didn’t they approve mRNA vaccines and that has no scientific basis underneath of it that’s safe? There’s kind of an inconsistent message being given, but nonetheless, this is an opportunity. Any idea why the federal government HSS is providing an opportunity at this time? Is it altruistic? Is it a good thing or is it whatever?
Twila Brase:
I certainly think that it fits within RFK Junior’s drive for what he wants to make happen in vaccine. He doesn’t want anybody forced into it. So there are these three reasons or these three criteria, informed consent, religious freedom, individual autonomy. If that actually would become part of vaccine policy, we would not have what has happened here with COVID and that mRNA vaccine can just sit there and nobody chooses it because they realize that other information that they’ve gotten shows that there can be some dangers with mRNA vaccines and they don’t have to choose it and nobody can force them to choose it. And nobody can tell a doctor that he can’t be paid as much if he can’t get his patients to take it. So I think they’ve got two years of the Trump administration. I don’t know how long RFK Junior is going to stay.
It’s going to stay the entire time. But I think the whole thing is to try in the time left to change what has happened and to make it so that the next administration, if the next administration is like the government bureaucrats and they don’t want you to have any choice at all, the next administration would then have to write new rules, propose new rules and get the public to respond to those new rules where they would take away your freedom, take away your religious freedom, take away your autonomy. They’d have to take all those words away. They’d have to go through the entire administrative procedural practice. So I think they want to get this done during the Trump administration.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. And that’s good. And ladies and gentlemen, I’m going to ask Twila, by the time we’re done, she’s going to tell us how to contact HHS so you can add your comments to this request for comment period. We’ll do that a little bit later, but out of time right now, stay with us. We’ll be back. Next segment, we’re going to move from this federal government, the federal siege, into the technocratic AI, and I’m going to call it the demonization of care. For just joining us, we’re going into our second segment here on Stand in the Gap today and our focus today is our monthly focus on health freedom. I do that once a month and have done this now for a long time. And the reason is because of the obvious blessing that we have of being able to generally, although that’s the whole point of what we’re talking about here, losing that freedom to make our own health decisions, to be able to talk with our own physician privately and to know that that conversation is not being recorded and sent to some government entity or some corporate entity that is more concerned about their interest than you and my interest and that of our physician.
And the problem is, and what we’re going to talk about in a segment is that the attack on health freedom, patient rights, patient doctor relationship is coming from all sides. The federal government itself is on one and we just touched on one aspect of that in the first segment, but as technology advances, so does the threat. Now, as we’ve been consistently warning here on this program, Twila and I and even separate programs from what she’s on, we’ve talked about this, that across the country, health systems of which we all have our parts to one degree or another most likely are integrating artificial intelligence, AI, diagnostic algorithms and ambient, quiet, unseen ambient listening tools. Just sit there and listen. At Duke University Health System, for example, leadership has openly discussed building tech driven care models. They say utilizing computer vision, computers looking at you, right? Virtual nursing and remote sitters, they call them, to manage inpatient care without traditional nursing staff.
In other words, an AI technological entity sitting there perhaps instead of a real live nurse. And simultaneously, legal battles are breaking out such as Florida, a lawsuit down there alleging that AI has contributed to a delayed cancer diagnosis, failed to diagnose appropriately and then somebody gets much sicker than they would have been otherwise, as an example. And while legal experts affirm that courts hold human physicians responsible for exercising independent medical judgment, hospitals forcing doctors to rely on algorithmic systems are creating unprecedented liability and patient risk. It’s an unknown area, but there’s enough known about it that it’s known and it’s not good area. Now as Twila highlights in her health freedom minute, one of them that she did recently, do you want a robot or a nurse? It’s one that’s been running this week, you may have heard it. These technologies threaten to erode both patient privacy, genuine human care.
And I would say it’s almost like the institutionalization of healthcare dehumanization that we’re watching. So Twila, you’ve been on this from the beginning. When major hospital systems design inpatient care around algorithms, computer vision, robot sitters rather than bedside nurses, all right, not only is this different, but what does this technocratic shift actually mean for patient safety, health freedom, medical accuracy, and I’m going to say basic human dignity.
Twila Brase:
Well, I’m a nurse. I’ve done this for a long time in the policy realm, but ultimately I’m a nurse. And I think patients and Americans need to ask themselves, do they really want to have their care directed by a computer that has no ethical or moral basis for decisions unless a programmer behind it adds it? And then who is that programmer? And when you’re afraid, when you’re sitting in a hospital bed, will a computer calm your fears? I mean, I think the interesting thing about this is a new article that came out from Ezekiel Emmanuel in JAMA. It’s a Journal of the American Medical Association. And he says essentially, and most people can’t read it because it’s behind the paywall, but he’s been interviewed. So he basically says that AI alone already matches or exceeds human doctors in five key areas, gathering details, diagnosing, picking tests, prescribing treatments, managing long-term illnesses.
And so he and the other authors of this argue that forcing a human in the loop model, in other words, having a human doctor oversee and override AI can degrade care quality because they say the AI is already more accurate than the clinician. So he wrote this article and the authors wrote this article to move everything in healthcare to fully autonomous AI. And they say it could be deployed by 2030. But I will say that in the interview, Ezekiel does mention that they don’t have enough regulatory oversight. And he actually says about when are they ready and allowed to go into people? He said the word into people, which is really interesting about AI. And then they will make mistakes and who will be responsible. Who will the patient or the family sue? The computer, the software, the hospital, the clinic, the doctor, the nurse, who will they sue and then how to pay for it because it’s very, very expensive.
So he does say there are three problems with it, but he’s all for putting AI in the exam room. And even what he says about documentation, that it’s better with documentation. Oh, I have stories about how it’s not better with documentation. And there are all sorts of errors happening in the medical record because of AI.
Sam Rohrer:
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to jump in on you. I thought you were done. But one of the things you’re describing there when you’re citing numbers there that would indicate whatever it was that there was a large percentage, if not a majority, whatever that percentage was you gave of medical decisions and analysis that are already being done by AI, it’s almost like there’s some claiming that the paradigm has already shift. So when you said there, which really caught my eye, that interjecting a human being into the AI process degrades the process, that to me says we’ve already crossed a really dangerous line.
Twila Brase:
Well, the line has definitely been crossed. Doctors are using it for all sorts of things. Some doctors have been quoted who have said that the problem is we’re probably going to have a de-skilling of physicians. So physicians won’t even have the kind of skills that we have today because you’re just going to be trusting the computer. Other doctors have said it’s racing forward without any guardrails and it’s just going so fast forward and doctors and hospitals are just all racing to get into it without looking at all these ramifications. And so it’s definitely there and part of the reason it’s there, particularly with ambient listening is because doctors do not, they’re so tired of the paperwork. They’re so tired of the clicks and how many clicks it takes them to even get through a patient’s record. 11 minutes with a patient, 37 minutes with the patient’s record is what one healthcare system found.
So if they can have just it all being recorded and all being put into some kind of a documentational order, then they can at least look at and touch the patient. But this is like the wrong direction and for the wrong reason.
Sam Rohrer:
That’s an interesting thing that you say that because the way that people end up often in the history of mankind and particularly in this age, rather than seizing freedom from people, government has become very, I’m going to say very deceptive, put that way, demonic because that comes from deception. But it’s creating circumstances that make things so difficult that people actually say, “Oh, you’re providing me relief.” But the relief that is asked for, in this case, AI, “I’m tired of filling out all this paperwork.” Or he gets sued because something was written down not quite right or whatever it would be. And so now, oh, the doc says, “Oh, that’s a breath of fresh air. Yeah, I’ll do it.” And the patient says, “Wow, you know what? I get a copy of the meeting with my physician right when I leave perhaps because it’s all right there.
Oh,” and people actually give up their freedom. Is that what you’re. I mean, to me, that’s what seems happening. That’s the insidious nature of this, do you think?
Twila Brase:
Yes. Well, and there’s certain assumptions there that this is accurate, right? So some of the stories include one woman who went to the doctor and the doctor discovered in the visit that she was actually using the data of another patient that had been inserted into her record. It wasn’t that patient’s record at all, and they didn’t know where that patient’s record had landed. Another doctor in a comment said his patient was listed as coming into the emergency room under arrest with CPR going on. And the only thing wrong with the patient is that the patient had high blood pressure, never was arrested at all, but now they cannot get the medical record to be corrected. And so he said, “I will never trust AI.” And so there’s all of these things that are happening. There’s doctors using sign language to tell the patient how to respond because the AI is listening in the room.
This is what’s happening. These are real stories that I have heard.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. Now let me ask you a question here before we leave here. Are there some questions or something that patients, when they go into, for instance, an exam room, should do, should say, or should not say?
Twila Brase:
Yep. So the first thing they should say, and they can say it when they make their appointments, “Will the visit be recorded? Do I have a choice?” And then when they come, they should ask the clerk, “Will the visit be recorded? Where’s the form where I can say I don’t want it recorded?” They should ask everybody who comes into the room, “Is this visit being recorded? Please turn it off.” And then they should also ask the doctor or the nurse, whoever’s making the final decisions, “Are these your decisions? Are they protocols in the computer? Is this AI that’s giving you these options or is there something else available for me that you’re just not telling me about?” And then who’s responsible if the treatment that you give me is going to hurt me?
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. Those are great. And I’m going to ask you to give those again because I’m sure they were interesting to those who are listening, but probably not able to capture them. So ladies and gentlemen, stay with us. Twila will give those again because those are excellent questions to know. When we come back, we’re going to move to another area of siege, put it that way, corporate. And we’re going to talk about Medicare specifically and Medicare Advantage. Well, we’re right in the middle of the program now. My guest today is Twila Brase. This is our monthly focus on health freedom. Her website, cchfreedom.org. A lot of information with some, if not most of what we’re talking about today, there’ll be some elements probably find there, but I’m going to have her give some information. She’s got a conference coming up in October, so talk about that in the next segment a little bit and other information.
So I’d encourage you to go there. But in our focus here today, the continuing health freedom siege, I’m calling it, because it really is, it’s a coordinated assault. We talked about the federal government a little bit in the beginning, an opportunity there that’s now able to weigh in and give comment on a posting from Health and Human Services or Secretary Robert F. Kennedy thing regarding consent and religious freedom. Very seldom is that opportunity given, but Twila’s going to tell us how to do that as well. But in this segment here, corporate siege, I’m calling it, because it goes to this area, and we’ve talked about this as well. The problem in the last segment with the technocratic siege, AI, algorithms, faceless entities, not people, but things, programmed things, computer, internet, AI, there’s no accountability for that. We didn’t actually get into that, but that’s part of the heart of it.
Who’s responsible? A machine? An algorithm? A programmer?
That opens up just a Pandora’s box, and frankly, that Pandora’s box is already opened. But it moves into other areas because right now, more than over a million senior citizens, seniors, those basically 65 and over, I’m going to put in that category, are being abruptly dropped by major corporate insurers like Humana and United Healthcare. Well, they proceed to eliminate less profitable Medicare Advantage policies. Heavily marketed, this whole thing is, as cost saving, all inclusive alternatives, these private plans rely on restricted networks, mandatory pre-authorizations. We all have run into that, have we not, right? And frequent care denials, that is increasing. The hidden trap for seniors is frankly devastating because once an individual develops a serious medical condition, as an example, a preexisting condition then prevents underwriters, they will often then use that to say you can’t ever go back to traditional Medicare and when you’re 65, you’ve got to be a part of it.
So you’re captive and you’re forced. All right, you get the idea. But with annual open enrollment, generally beginning, I think it’s this year, October 15th, seniors face a critical turning point unless they understand how to preserve what choices they have left, their choice of a doctor and medical independence, such as pairing traditional Medicare with a highly deductible Medigap policy. Now, some of that may be a little bit Greek to a lot of you listening, but they’re all things that you have to know about in order to make a decision that’s at least halfway informed. Twila, why are major corporate insurers suddenly dumping over a million enrollees and why does Medicare Advantage, again, you’ve talked about it before, but share it again, why has Medicare Advantage become such a dangerous trap the moment a senior actually develops a major health condition, which is obviously everybody’s fear.
They want something when they get sick that they’ve got some coverage. Why is it such a problem?
Twila Brase:
Well, first of all, we call it Medicare Disadvantage to help people see that they should look twice before they think about zero premiums and no deductibles and anything else, or free beneath I should say, they do have some deductibles. Zero premiums, free benefits, all inclusive, wonderment, wonderment. Okay. Medicare Advantage is a business and they’re not making as much money off of those products. They have been gaming the system, gaming the federal government, getting all of these bonuses, up coding diagnoses, making people look sicker so that they can get more Obamacare money from health plans who don’t have enough bean counters to make their people look sicker. So they’re getting all this extra money. Billions of dollars are flowing into these health plans in bonuses. And they may also want to streamline their business just to make it easier to increase their profits and get the government payments and control the physicians, so fewer parts.
But what you have to just understand is this is a business. Now Medicare, traditional Medicare cannot drop you, but Medicare Advantage plans can drop you, can ration your care and are rationing your care. And I do encourage all of your people to get our Medicare how to guide. It’s up on the top slider at the top of our website is these slides that roll around. It’s up there. It’s completely free. People have said to me that it’s the best Medicare guide that they’ve ever read. So we try to tell them about 10 traps and how to avoid them, give them all the terminology. They got a directory they can look at. If they ever see a term they don’t understand, go to our directory. I think it’s the most comprehensive around. You got to figure out what this thing is because right now seniors cannot leave it.
It’s age discrimination. Once you turn 65, you don’t have any other choice. For some people, they’re like, “Yeah, but it’s really cheap.” Yeah, well, it’s running out of money because it’s really cheap. And then doctors are leaving, hospitals are leaving, health systems are refusing Medicare Advantage, and people are just sort of going around as though this is not happening and this is all a wonderful program. It’s actually a trap as soon as you get sick.
Sam Rohrer:
And that’s an amazing thing, a trap. I mean, again, we’ve talked about it here on the program before and you’ve highlighted it. One of the very few, frankly, that I’ve heard identify this and describe it as simply as you have, but it is a trap. It’s an odd thing that the federal government and those in Washington, those in Congress, those in the Senate who are a part of overseeing all this thing would allow a trap to be foisted on the American people. Now I’m going to ask you why you think that is, but I want to go here first, and that is what steps, specific steps, should seniors, all of those who are going to be approaching 65 here or are already in there in this open enrollment period, which begins on October 15th to make sure that they’re not, I’m going to say snookered into or forced into narrow networks that lock them out of coverage altogether?
Twila Brase:
Yeah. So they should look toward the freedom version of Medicare that is traditional Medicare plus a Medigap supplemental policy. It will be more expensive, but it will actually take care of you when you want to get cared for. And so look at your policy, what do you have? Do you have the traditional Medicare, the freedom version, or do you have Medicare Disadvantage, the rationing version? And then see, can you move? Do you have so many medical conditions nobody will take you for Medigap? You can always move back to traditional Medicare, but traditional Medicare will not pay for everything, so you do need a Medigap policy. And so if you’re healthy, move now. And then maybe if you’re not so healthy, but you choose a high deductible Medigap policy, which I talk about in the Medicare how to guide, if you choose a high deductible policy, they may decide to take you because you’re going to pay just little snippets of every piece of care that you have upfront until you meet your deductible, which is now almost $3,000.
But it’s really inexpensive. It’s like $54 a month or something for the high deductible policy if you can find it where you live. So you have until December 7th to make changes to get yourself out of the big trap, which is Medicare Advantage. There are still smaller traps, but if you can at least get into traditional Medicare, you can save yourself some energy, some rationing. You can save yourself from a lot of things.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. And again, all this information people can find on your website, right? Is that what you’re saying?
Twila Brase:
That’s correct. Medicare how to guide. It’s right on the top of the homepage, cchfreedom.org.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. CCHFreedom.org. Okay, just a couple minutes left here. I’m going to come back and ask you that question because I’m sure people are saying we use the word trap. We know about traps. People know about traps. Often set traps for little animals like groundhogs and things that they’re outside walking around that you don’t like. So we don’t like Medicare Advantage. Why is that allowed? Why is that trap put out there in the first place and why is it allowed to exist?
Twila Brase:
I would say it’s politics and probably politics and money. So one is that Congress really doesn’t want to be the one that’s rationing the care and Medicare Advantage health plans have agreed to ration the care as long as they get paid a certain amount of money and they’re getting paid a lot of money. Something like 83 or $87 billion more for all the people in Medicare Advantage than for the people in traditional Medicare, which is why they can offer you all those Bennies and say that you won’t have to pay any premiums because your taxes are paying all that extra money. But it keeps rationing at arms length from the members of Congress. Plus the health plans are big givers to campaigns. So the health plans have a whole lot of power up on Capitol Hill and anybody who can get the government to give them money has a amazing source of profit.
And so every government contractor knows this, that the government will pay more and for more things than anybody else in the private sector would.
Sam Rohrer:
You are describing, ladies and gentlemen, what’s called deniability. It’s when people don’t want to be accountable for their decisions. Senate, Congress, president, everybody loves to put things into effect and blame somebody else for it, right? How often do we hear that? Oh, it’s the guy before me’s fault. It’s somebody else’s fault. It’s not mine. That’s what Congress is saying. And so you need to be aware and that is applicable here in this matter of Medicare advantage. Don’t go that direction. It is Medicare disadvantage as Twila, you just said. When we come back, we want to end with all right now things that can be done because there are some solutions. Some of those have already been mentioned, but I’ll have Twila say how we can weigh in on the HSS statement and other things when we come back.
All right. As we go into our final segment, get your pen and pencils ready or at least put your brain in good memory gear because we’re going to give some things here as solutions. Twila, I want to go back to you because we’ve highlighted a couple things I’ll tell people. I mean, this is what I want to ask you. The comment process about how to weigh in on the comments posted there on the federal register, that’s number one. Two, I want to talk to you about the questions or statements that people should ask when going into a doctor’s office or that kind of a thing. You’ve got a gala coming up here that’s devoted to healthcare and then what you refer to as the 3C solution. So I’m going to reverse the order. 3C solution, explain that and why that works so well as a proactive approach as an alternative that has put us far better than the corporate governmental plans that are being thrust upon us.
Go there first and I’m going to come back and ask you then comment on the comment process.
Twila Brase:
So 3C is an initiative that we are developing, cash, catastrophic coverage and charity. And we believe this is the way all of healthcare should go back to. All the prices will drop, every price transparent. Patient and the doctor working together, patient has the power because has the cash from their own bank account or from their catastrophic coverage policy. Much fewer people will even need charity because all the prices will drop. And then people in Medicare can actually have an option to have real health insurance and not be beholden to or under the influence of a federal budget and congressional political decisions.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. We got enough time here. Give a quick explanation on that same thing. Why does the cash approach work well? Why does it work well? And is it likely that people who are not doing it right now or physicians as an example who may not be operating by cash, are they likely to consider doing it or are we patients who want to pay cash and pursue this approach, are they walking into either a buzzsaw or likely to hear somebody say, “No, I don’t want to do that.” What do you say?
Twila Brase:
So to be clear, it would be nice if it functioned that way right now, but we are going to be the catalyst to bring this way of functioning, affordable, patient-centered, confidential care back to America before we end up in socialized medicine. Every patient wants to be cared for like a patient should be cared for. Doctors want to actually be able to do what they can, what their brain says, what lets them sleep at night. We just have to move in this direction. Cash is king. Whoever’s got the money, whoever’s got the gold is the one who rules. What do they say? The person who pays the piper picks the tune. So cash in your hand rather than having a third party pay the bill and that third party goes, “Well, I don’t think I should pay for that.” So you’ve given all this money to this third party, the health plan who gets in the middle and tells the doctor what he can and cannot do.
Real catastrophic coverage does not do that. Real catastrophic coverage tells you this is our contract and when you get that, we pay you X. End of statement. They don’t come into the middle and say, “Well, we’re not going to let you have that.” So cash is king and cash is king in all the rest of your life. Imagine if you let a third party buy your groceries, you gave them a certain amount of money and they think, well, that money is mine. Let’s see what’s the cheapest steak that I can give them? Maybe they don’t need steak this week. This is what happens when you give somebody your money and they get to make all the rules.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. All right. That makes sense. Let’s move on the comment process. How do our listeners, how do those who are listening say, “Hey, look, I’d like to weigh in on this matter of consent and religious exemption for vaccines and so forth.” How do they do that?
Twila Brase:
Okay. So for that and for our event, everybody should just write down our website, cchfreedom.org, cchfreedom.org. At the top of our website is something that you can scroll through. One of the things that you can scroll through, the first thing you’ll see is our event, our gala, but the second thing that you’ll see is HHS is asking and there is a link. There’s a box that you can just click. It will take you to the regulation page. On that page, look for the blue button at the top. It says comment. Just click the comment button, make your one or two sentences about how important informed consent is or religious freedom, personal autonomy, how that should always be a part of every vaccine decision. It doesn’t have to be more than one or two sentences. That’s all you have to do for that.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. And then
Twila Brase:
That’s what you’re asking. Yeah.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. Were you saying some more on that one? Did I cut you off?
Twila Brase:
Nope. Just get your friends and family to know. Just send them the link and say, “Here, ask for this because it would change everything about what happened during COVID.” It’s so important that everyone not just think, “Well, somebody else will comment.” No, we need like 50,000 comments. There’s 2,300 right now. We need like 50,000 comments. We could get that. Your listeners, you probably have that many listeners all the time. More than that, right?
Sam Rohrer:
Yeah, absolutely.
Twila Brase:
So
Sam Rohrer:
Everybody should ask. Yeah, absolutely. So ladies and gentlemen, this doesn’t take a lot of work. You’re not sitting down writing an epistle. It’s very short, but it’s important. So anyways, do that. Now the third thing is that I’d asked you earlier, when going into a physician’s office, you went down to a list of questions. Do you do this? Do you do that? Repeat those, please.
Twila Brase:
Yeah. So every person that you come in contact with before you get there or while you’re there, ask the question, “Is this visit being recorded? Do you have a recording device?” And then you tell them to shut it off, turn it off. You have a right not to have a recorder and every word that is said in that exam room, you have a right not to have that enter a computer. So just stand up. And we do have a door hanger. So that’s the other thing on our website, cchfreedom.org, bottom of the homepage, left side, it says helpful handouts. Click on there. We’ve got all our helpful handouts right there, including how you can get the door hanger, which you can carry in your purse. You could put it on the outside of the clinic door if you wanted to, but you also have to ask the doctor or the nurse, “So who’s making my medical decisions here?
Is AI making these medical decisions? Are you? Who’s responsible if I get hurt? Is the computer telling you what to do? I want to know who’s in charge here.” And so just make sure that the AI is shut off. It will actually help the doctor speak more freely to you in the exam room if nobody is recording it. And then ask where your treatment decisions are coming from, the doctor or the computer.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay. I want to have you talk about the gala a little bit, but here’s just one follow up question. Many times patients feel uncomfortable. People feel uncomfortable asking a question like that for fear that the doc or the nurse will come back or somebody else will come back and say, “Well, you know what? You have to.” Or if you don’t, we’re going to tell you to get out or we’re not going to give you service. That fear can be very real. Is that likely though?
Twila Brase:
It has happened, but now they’re actually posting signs and so you can ask questions about it. It gives you even more license to ask questions about it. That’s why we have the door hanger. You can have it in your purse and you can say, “See, I don’t want this. I don’t want this ambient listening going on.” And you can have not only you, but somebody behind you who knows it and you can just show this to them, right? Okay, good.
Sam Rohrer:
Okay, thank you. I’ve got to go on because we’re about out of time. What about this gala coming up? Is that something that listeners would want to know about? Share briefly.
Twila Brase:
Yeah. So Thursday, October 1st, this is our fundraising gala. If you can’t come, please send us a donation, but we’d love for you to come and be in the room. We have a Canadian talking about all the people he’s rescued from Canada’s single payer system. We have an investigative journalist as an MC. I’ll be there. It’ll be a lot of fun, but it’ll also be very informational. You can go to our website. It’s the first thing that pops up when you get there on the very top and it says how to register. So I would love to see you there. We can really use your support.
Sam Rohrer:
All right. And with that, we are out of time and I think we’ve stewarded well. Twile a lot of information here today. Thanks for being with me as always. And ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being with us. And again, if you didn’t get all this written down, again, go to her Twila site, cchfreedom.org or go to our site, standonthegapradio.com or on our app, Stand in the Gap. You can bring up this program and there you can access a transcript of all that we’ve gone over today. And that might actually prove to be very helpful as well.
