Not as charity. Not as a one-time promo. But as an actual business model. I recently revisited Chris Anderson’s book Free: The Future of a Radical Price. I read it in 2013 and recently picked it back up — and it got me thinking: How could we apply this to healthcare? The cost of delivering digital care (videos, plans, consults) is rapidly approaching (nearly) zero.\nThat opens the door to radically different care delivery models — ones that lower access barriers and still generate real revenue. So, in this episode, I dive into ways that clinicians could build a profitable business offering free healthcare services.\nIn a world where trust, access, and attention are more valuable than ever. Offering “free” services could be a strategic move — not a loss. For clinicians willing to rethink their model, there’s real opportunity here. Curious — if you had to give away your clinical services for free,\nwhat would you monetize instead? Shoot me an email if you've got some ideas!\nWhat we cover in this Episode:\n-How a Freemium model could work in delivering healthcare services\n-The idea of a Cross-Subsidy model for private practice healthcare services\n-Membership models, like Direct Primary Care\n-Sponsorships or Ad-based Healthcare services\n-Data Exchange & Research Recruitment Models\nFull episode note: https://rehabupracticesolutions.com/better-outcomes-159\nPodcast: https://www.betteroutcomes.show\nGet the Book: https://amzn.to/3M2UZ6x\nBook a call with me: https://calendly.com/rehabu/discovery\nConnect with Me: https://www.rafisalazar.com","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/TRw7TPxyAwWympKv0xhI25HiRrQGqPAeghmslhuz_bI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kODg3/MjI5OGRmYWI3MGFm/MTMwYjI2Mzk3Yjk1/ZDIyNC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
