Longevity Management
A Major Shift in the US Healthcare System
The US medical care system is broken and driven by the financial interests of corporations, private equity, and hospital administrators. Doctors have become employees, focusing on accumulating billable hours and adhering to metrics that prioritize quantity over quality. This shift has led to a 72% error rate in both diagnostics and treatment. Together, we can change this for our patients.
Over the past 50 years, the medical industry has evolved from a doctor-patient-centric healthcare system, supported by hospitals and medical technologies, into an industry managed by big businesses predominantly controlled by large organizations, hospital systems, and medical insurance payments.
US healthcare spending exceeds $4 trillion annually, having grown from 5% of GDP (Gross Domestic Product) in 1970 to 20% of US GDP in 2022. US healthcare expenditures surpass the entire economies of Japan, Germany, or China. Healthcare is the largest and fastest-growing industry in the US and globally, expected to grow an additional 16% over the next decade.
Along with spending growth, the focus has shifted from individual patient-centric solutions to cost controls and institutional bottom lines. Most patients feel lost in a confusing and inefficient healthcare maze with little personal control. Physicians are frustrated with prescribing treatments that require maneuvering and persistence through the medical insurance system for payments.
There is little preventative medicine available in today’s healthcare system. Hospital-employed doctors are paid incentivized salaries based on fixed-rate billable RVUs (Revenue Value Unit), set at 15 minutes per patient. Medicine is organized by administrators to make money by incentivizing physicians to sell the most expensive procedures and use existing equipment.
It is estimated that up to 20% of initial diagnoses are typically wrong, attributed to the forced restriction of physicians’ time with patients and lack of time for proper research and follow-up. Mortality and morbidity rates have increased due to the shortage of physicians and changes in volume and productivity requirements of employed doctors. Because of these issues, patients don’t live as long as they could.
The Longevity Meta-University
The Longevity Meta-University can serve as a guide through the healthcare maze, partnering with high-net-worth individuals, concierge physicians, personal physician groups, and insurance providers. Our goal is to develop a personalized longevity plan using state-of-the-art testing, screening, imaging, and artificial intelligence to identify health challenges before they become major crises. Additionally, we create a longevity maintenance plan to promote healthy aging, enabling a lifespan beyond current averages and expectations.
The Longevity Meta-University employs the latest technology and screening techniques to identify potential future health challenges and develop plans to minimize their impact, promoting healthy living well beyond typical lifespan expectations. Our approach bridges medical silos, focusing on major health challenges associated with aging, including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, kidney disease, and virus identification and prevention. This strategy enhances long-term quality of life and extends lifespan.
Ongoing Prevention
Promote Personal Longevity
Promote personal longevity through state-of-the-art health screening and health planning using innovative and emerging technologies and solutions. Treating disease with proven results and personalized directed care is essential for:
- Chronic Disease Management: Those patients with one or more chronic diseases (85% of all Americans over the age of 65) need directed, well-selected, personalized care.
- Preventative Medical Surveillance: Younger patients require preventative medical surveillance with early detection of coronary plaque and cancer.
Together, we can bring appropriate newly proven technologies and treatments based on results rather than traditional procedures driven by financial rewards within a hospital network.
Access to Cutting-Edge Technology and Research
Through our partnership, physicians will have access to LMU’s cutting-edge research and medical technologies, including artificial intelligence and intuitive analytics from our core laboratories in Tampa, Florida, and Oxford, UK.
We offer personalized longevity plans based on best-in-class testing, screening, imaging, and artificial intelligence to identify health challenges before they become major crises for your patients. We collaborate with physicians and our selected academic commanders of excellence (~200 specialists) to help facilitate care and treat our patients by partnering with family offices and firms. We are committed to providing the best treatments and models for care regardless of the treatment or patient’s physical location.
