2:49
Speaker 1: morning with John, and thank you for having me. I'm
2:52
Speaker 1: very excited about um the opportunity to speak to your
2:56
Speaker 1: gass audience. I appreciate it. I like the word for
2:59
Speaker 1: as is always good to be bad. And this because
3:03
Speaker 1: you know social media podcast you know, we're an era
3:06
Speaker 1: where you can come you can control your your own
3:08
Speaker 1: destiny because of the platforms that are available out there
3:12
Speaker 1: to be able to visually and audibly tax and and
3:15
Speaker 1: get words out and and it changes the game. And
3:18
Speaker 1: so but I want to step back a little bit
3:19
Speaker 1: right now because I want to talk about your your
3:22
Speaker 1: career and your your academic training. You are a double
3:25
Speaker 1: hbc you graduate UH the last two years. The last
3:30
Speaker 1: two years, there's been a huge momentum for the academic success,
3:35
Speaker 1: capabilities accomplishments as being achieved by people who have attended
3:39
Speaker 1: HBCUs are currently attending hbc US. Talk about your experience
3:43
Speaker 1: and talk about any motivational statements you can say about
3:46
Speaker 1: HBCU schools. Okay, So, I graduated from Tennessee State University
3:52
Speaker 1: and also Ma Harry Medical College. Prior to attending Tennessee
3:56
Speaker 1: State University, I had attended Brooklyn College, New York, which
4:01
Speaker 1: is not an HBCU, and my experience there was quite
4:05
Speaker 1: different from my experience at Tennessee State University. When you
4:09
Speaker 1: are in a majority school and majority and quotes, you
4:14
Speaker 1: don't get the I felt. I did not get the attention,
4:17
Speaker 1: I did not get the motivation. I did not get
4:20
Speaker 1: the help and career planning that I received at Tennessee
4:24
Speaker 1: State University. And seeing people who look like you as
4:28
Speaker 1: heads of departments, as your counselors, as your as your everything,
4:35
Speaker 1: it changes you. It makes you want to do better,
4:40
Speaker 1: It gives you hope. If they can do it, I
4:43
Speaker 1: can do it. Thus, they tend to have your same
4:47
Speaker 1: cultural background, so they know where you are coming from,
4:51
Speaker 1: relatable stories, relatable experiences about the challenges you will face
4:57
Speaker 1: once you receive this degree are currently facing as an
4:59
Speaker 1: every a person of color in this country, especially during
5:02
Speaker 1: that time and especially at times we live right now,
5:05
Speaker 1: it's just that the curtain. Uh they say, there's a
5:08
Speaker 1: magic show, you know, the wizard behind the curtain. We
5:11
Speaker 1: can see the wizard. He's actually and now we're trying
5:13
Speaker 1: to let everybody know that we're tired of that same
5:16
Speaker 1: game and both both the justice systems in the financial system.
5:24
Speaker 1: But I just want to bring up Mahrry Medical College,
5:27
Speaker 1: that is a famous school for medical training. What makes
5:32
Speaker 1: that school so special? That school is so special, very
5:37
Speaker 1: special to me again because that is a African American
5:43
Speaker 1: run school and you have the President of African American
5:48
Speaker 1: with When my class graduated, I won't tell you the
5:50
Speaker 1: year from years ago, but we had the largest female
5:56
Speaker 1: ever at Harry at that time. Now it's probably fifty fifty.
6:01
Speaker 1: And so the time that those instructors took with us
6:06
Speaker 1: just seeing again, you are what you see and just
6:10
Speaker 1: seeing black doctors concentrated, caring about you, caring about your education.
6:14
Speaker 1: It makes a difference because I did my residency in
6:18
Speaker 1: a majority hospital, and the difference is proclound. Qualified to compete,
6:25
Speaker 1: That's what we're talking about, qualified to compete, to to excel.
6:30
Speaker 1: You know, when I when I look at the when
6:32
Speaker 1: when you were talking about your class at the time,
6:34
Speaker 1: and I look at African American women today, um, most
6:37
Speaker 1: notly for ont slide in the politics. More likely that
6:40
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's U Vice President of Canada is probably going
6:44
Speaker 1: to be uh an African American female. And I look
6:47
Speaker 1: at a lot of the cities that are being run
6:49
Speaker 1: that have prominently created prominent varce in Washington, d City, Atlanta, Georgia.
6:56
Speaker 1: You know, these these these forces are proven to be
6:58
Speaker 1: very significant. And because we all know in the democratic
7:02
Speaker 1: world that the African American woman has played a prominent
7:05
Speaker 1: role in the vote, in the vote, and she absolutely has,
7:10
Speaker 1: and it's been ignored, it's not counted, it's not publicized.
7:14
Speaker 1: And that's what that's why. You know, one of the
7:16
Speaker 1: things that I got the opportunity to bring you on
7:17
Speaker 1: the show, it was it was your activism, your your
7:21
Speaker 1: strength your your because we're going to talk about all
7:24
Speaker 1: your accomplices currently. But I always say it's a journey
7:26
Speaker 1: to get through you. I have a journey in my life.
7:28
Speaker 1: And when I when I talk about the Black Panther
7:32
Speaker 1: organizations that that that something were basically undersieged by the
7:38
Speaker 1: government with miss miss Uh. Bad propaganda was put out
7:41
Speaker 1: about them. When I see uh, when I see uh
7:44
Speaker 1: white men going up to the state capital of Michigan
7:48
Speaker 1: carrying guns, you know, and then everybody going, I'm cool,
7:51
Speaker 1: aren't you cool? You know? But the Black Panthers were
7:56
Speaker 1: doing the same thing. And guess what shot at, killed, arrested.
8:00
Speaker 1: Talk about your experience during that period and and if
8:03
Speaker 1: you can't pull back the curtain a little bit and
8:05
Speaker 1: let us know what exactly was the purpose and some
8:09
Speaker 1: of the things that was done to undermine the Black
8:11
Speaker 1: Panther movement. Okay, So, as a teenager, I joined the
8:15
Speaker 1: Black Panther Party along with a lot of the teenagers.
8:19
Speaker 1: And at that time, you had Nick, you had Double
8:24
Speaker 1: a c. P. You had Malcolm X, you had Stokely
8:28
Speaker 1: call Michael. These are all the people that I remember
8:30
Speaker 1: from my teenage years, and and during that time, the
8:35
Speaker 1: Black Panther Party had its own philosophy about you know,
8:39
Speaker 1: non don't lay that, you know, don't just sit there peacefully.
8:43
Speaker 1: That was the philosophy. But the other philosophy was community involvement.
8:49
Speaker 1: Some of the things that the Panther Party asked for
8:51
Speaker 1: all of those years ago, because remember we're talking the
8:55
Speaker 1: sixties early seventies. The one of the first things they
8:59
Speaker 1: said was in the police brutality, So what's going on
9:02
Speaker 1: now is nothing new. We want education, I'm trying to
9:06
Speaker 1: remember it from all of those years. We want education
9:08
Speaker 1: for our people. That's not new. We want adequate housing
9:12
Speaker 1: and healthcare. These were the tenants of the Black Panther Party,
9:16
Speaker 1: and the Black Panther Party felt we could not get
9:19
Speaker 1: those rights because they were all rights. We all pay
9:22
Speaker 1: taxes without without some strong commands towards to the government.
9:30
Speaker 1: And and that led to them being um counterprogrammed in
9:34
Speaker 1: a way with the media, attacked by local police and
9:38
Speaker 1: UH and the government and killed and killed. I've known
9:42
Speaker 1: people in the party who were killed. And that's the
9:44
Speaker 1: sad part about it. And and the sad part about
9:46
Speaker 1: it is that as I watch America open up on
9:49
Speaker 1: the whold wound that's always been there. All people of color,
9:54
Speaker 1: you know, always tell peoplehen I walk in the room,
9:55
Speaker 1: or you know who I am. Okay, I am a
9:57
Speaker 1: man walking to the room. That is nothing I can
9:59
Speaker 1: do skies. And so it means that I've had to
10:02
Speaker 1: compete against my own skin color all my life. And
10:05
Speaker 1: that's not fat, that's not fact. And so you you've
10:07
Speaker 1: been in a competitive world all your life as well,
10:10
Speaker 1: but it has not slowed your success story. Let's let's
10:13
Speaker 1: start with let's move a little bit from the medical.
10:15
Speaker 1: Let's movement from the activism. Let's go to you, being
10:18
Speaker 1: the CEO and publisher Impeccable Magazine, tell us about that. Okay,
10:23
Speaker 1: So I'm always concerned about the image that we have
10:27
Speaker 1: and I feel that our image is uh not. We
10:31
Speaker 1: are not given the best image in main street media.
10:35
Speaker 1: And so as I have a daughter and I was
10:40
Speaker 1: of course I'm a black woman, and the images we
10:42
Speaker 1: have we just don't We just don't see ourselves in
10:46
Speaker 1: a positive light. We don't see our hair, we don't
10:48
Speaker 1: see our beauty, we don't see our culture. So Impeccable
10:53
Speaker 1: Magazine was born out of the need to give black woman,
10:57
Speaker 1: a black young woman, a publication that they could see
11:02
Speaker 1: that they could see themselves, they could see their beauty,
11:04
Speaker 1: they can see their intelligence. We also we have also
11:08
Speaker 1: given artisans the opportunity to be published for the first time,
11:12
Speaker 1: a lot of them for the first time. You have writers,
11:15
Speaker 1: you have stylish you have photographers, you have models. A
11:19
Speaker 1: lot of them cannot get into mainstream media, so we
11:23
Speaker 1: have published them. We also have provided some scholarships. But
11:27
Speaker 1: the main thing is for the magazine. I wanted to.
11:31
Speaker 1: I strongly feel that you are what you see and
11:36
Speaker 1: you are what you don't see. If you constantly see
11:40
Speaker 1: negative images of yourself, then you thought taken on that persona.
11:45
Speaker 1: It's finally here, the season of celebration, and no matter
11:49
Speaker 1: how you celebrate with family and friends, whether you're preparing

13:40
Speaker 1: T E R dot ai. So I wanted to give
13:44
Speaker 1: all women and alternative. When I was growing up, I
13:48
Speaker 1: had to reach seventeen magazine. I didn't see me absolutely,
13:52
Speaker 1: That's true. That's true, and that's that's important. A lot
13:55
Speaker 1: of people understand that, you know, because what happens is
13:58
Speaker 1: if you don't see yourself, you start trying to shift
14:00
Speaker 1: yourself to look like something that you're not, and you
14:02
Speaker 1: start to think that what you are is not right
14:05
Speaker 1: or you start questioning can you succeed with that look
14:08
Speaker 1: that you were born? And and so that's really what
14:12
Speaker 1: I think. Some ways social media has accelerated that thought process.
14:16
Speaker 1: You know, plastic surgery and the African American community is
14:19
Speaker 1: on the rise. More people are concerned about likes, more
14:22
Speaker 1: people concerned about how the position of their different body
14:25
Speaker 1: parts are, and and just just to just to generate
14:28
Speaker 1: some type of uh loaning for hey, this is me
14:32
Speaker 1: and but your magazine which I have up with the
14:34
Speaker 1: departments like fashion, beauty, and hair. And I love the
14:37
Speaker 1: wig department, the wig section that you have in your
14:40
Speaker 1: and you because I got to pull up on my
14:41
Speaker 1: screen and be able to talk about this. But when
14:43
Speaker 1: you talk about fashion, you talk about beauty, you talk
14:45
Speaker 1: about hair, which is the very core of not only
14:48
Speaker 1: just the African American community, but community of color. So
14:53
Speaker 1: just before we go live out of his break, you know,
14:55
Speaker 1: having fashion, having beauty and hair, expound on that importance
14:59
Speaker 1: of that in a dread. That is important that when
15:01
Speaker 1: we look we see somebody like us. We see somebody
15:04
Speaker 1: that shares an experience or culture that we can carry
15:07
Speaker 1: out the door and feel comfortable with wearing. It's very
15:11
Speaker 1: empowering when you see your images in a very positive manner,
15:17
Speaker 1: and it also boosts your self esteem, which is going
15:20
Speaker 1: to help you make better decisions. But in the magazine,
15:23
Speaker 1: we also have articles on health. We feed to each
15:27
Speaker 1: month UH Black Museum, so that you can get further
15:31
Speaker 1: information in terms of a lot of people don't know
15:33
Speaker 1: that there are a lot of schools that have black archives.
15:36
Speaker 1: So if you don't know your history, you can't move forward.
15:40
Speaker 1: So we have a feature each month. We feature women
15:43
Speaker 1: and men in the community whom we call unparalleled. They
15:46
Speaker 1: are successful and they have made significant contributions to UM,
15:52
Speaker 1: the Black Black community, the fashion, beauty lifestyle. We're unique,
15:57
Speaker 1: were unique in that we have a sense of ashes.
16:00
Speaker 1: My mom used to tell me, God rest the soul.
16:03
Speaker 1: She said, back in the nineteen twenties, we see on
16:06
Speaker 1: TV the Flappers, you know, we see the Charles. My
16:10
Speaker 1: mom said, black people had passed that stage long time ago.
16:13
Speaker 1: The time got the nineteen twenties. Absolutely, I'm talking to
16:17
Speaker 1: Dr Alicia Kane UM and also enjoying all these covers
16:21
Speaker 1: that because if you go to the website, it just
16:24
Speaker 1: pops up all the covert my bar Rick Party and
16:26
Speaker 1: Sasha the Diva on the cover, Sema Boar n Bruno
16:30
Speaker 1: on the cover, uh head Cracker on the cover. It's
16:33
Speaker 1: a it's a it's a beautiful magazine that it should
16:36
Speaker 1: be viewed by all. You know. Back in the day,
16:39
Speaker 1: you know, we had we had Ebony and Jet that
16:42
Speaker 1: just be on your room coffee table, that had to
16:44
Speaker 1: be there. That was the magazine everyone ever that established
16:48
Speaker 1: you who you were as a black everything, did you Yeah,
16:52
Speaker 1: Beauty of the Week, the top ten, the top ten
16:56
Speaker 1: cut out of all the music in the industry, to
16:58
Speaker 1: the TV shows, all those little sub stories. You just saying, hey, Rashean,
17:03
Speaker 1: that storytelling has to be current because if we lose
17:07
Speaker 1: who we are the stories we're trying to tell, that
17:09
Speaker 1: we'll lose who we are as a people in the past,
17:13
Speaker 1: president and we cannot have a proper vision for the future.
17:16
Speaker 1: And also, you're currently the physicians that CEO or medstop
17:19
Speaker 1: consul group. What exactly is that? Okay, So that's my
17:24
Speaker 1: private medical practice which I have is really businy better
17:28
Speaker 1: medical practice, and included in that practice is a veteran service.
17:34
Speaker 1: Uh A lot, a large portion of my medical practice
17:37
Speaker 1: is geared towards helping veterans get their medical benefits that
17:41
Speaker 1: they deserve or that they are qualified to get, but
17:46
Speaker 1: a lot of them have been denied. So they come
17:49
Speaker 1: to me. I go through all of their medical records
17:52
Speaker 1: and I form a medical opinion that they take to
17:55
Speaker 1: the v A. I have argued for them all the
17:58
Speaker 1: way up to the Board of Veteran a p else
18:00
Speaker 1: and we have one because a lot of veterans don't
18:03
Speaker 1: know what they can claim, but when they are when
18:06
Speaker 1: they claim it, if they got injured doing the service,
18:09
Speaker 1: and when they claim it, they get denied. And so
18:13
Speaker 1: I helped them to reverse that denial. I helped them
18:16
Speaker 1: to get their claims. I've been doing it for the
18:19
Speaker 1: past ten years. And then this is really kind of weird.
18:24
Speaker 1: Somebody went service of the country right and back over here.
18:29
Speaker 1: Can you get an example right giving the name or
18:32
Speaker 1: we know the example who you're talking about. Give us
18:35
Speaker 1: a couple of examples. What because right now I'm confused,
18:38
Speaker 1: you know as to why you should be denying somebody
18:40
Speaker 1: acclaim when the injury was called under doing their service
18:44
Speaker 1: of the country. Okay, So what happens is the veterans
18:50
Speaker 1: while he's in the military, if if he if he
18:54
Speaker 1: doesn't go to sick call, then there's no documentation of
18:58
Speaker 1: his illness. And and what the veterans tell me, they're
19:02
Speaker 1: told while they're in the military, if you go to
19:05
Speaker 1: sit call your Nami, Pammy, suck it up, you know
19:08
Speaker 1: that he had They're discoverage, discoverage from going to sick call.
19:11
Speaker 1: So when they come out and say, oh, I have
19:13
Speaker 1: a shoulder injury, then the then the v able say, well,
19:16
Speaker 1: where's your documentation to catch who you too? So what
19:20
Speaker 1: happens when I go through the medical records. I can
19:23
Speaker 1: pick up terminology that the veterans, you know, he's not
19:26
Speaker 1: capable of picking up that terminology. Or I can go
19:29
Speaker 1: back and say, no, these were symptoms of this condition,
19:35
Speaker 1: or yes he had this even if I find one sentence,
19:38
Speaker 1: so he can be denied because when he comes out,
19:43
Speaker 1: they'll say, well, it didn't happen in the military, or
19:45
Speaker 1: you had it before you went into the military, or
19:48
Speaker 1: it was not exacerbated by the military. Those are the
19:51
Speaker 1: three types of claim. And that's my job. I tell
19:54
Speaker 1: a veteran, don't worry. It's my job to prove it.
19:57
Speaker 1: And we have I don't even advertise. It's all the
20:00
Speaker 1: mouth to the veterans, and we have like a ninety
20:03
Speaker 1: I'd say success rate. Congratulations, because I'm kind of confused here, Okay,
20:12
Speaker 1: cool uh, I thought there was a medical plan. My
20:16
Speaker 1: my younger brother, he served in the army. And if
20:20
Speaker 1: you had, aren't aren't all farmer military men covered by
20:25
Speaker 1: a medical plan. We'll say medical and and and benefits,
20:31
Speaker 1: medical right and claims, two different services. I get vetermans
20:36
Speaker 1: that saying, well, I was in the military and I'm
20:38
Speaker 1: being treated in the military. Okay, they separate medical and claims.
20:44
Speaker 1: Claims is you're going to get a monthly check for
20:46
Speaker 1: your claims, right, medical, you're going to get medical treatment. Okay.
20:51
Speaker 1: So okay, I see what you're saying. So you're saying
20:53
Speaker 1: that you're going over behalf of someone who has an
20:56
Speaker 1: injury that should get it, should file a claim, and
20:59
Speaker 1: not so much about treatment. It's about a claim. It's
21:02
Speaker 1: about a claim right, and getting a monthly check for
21:07
Speaker 1: injuries sustained during the military, and some of those injuries
21:11
Speaker 1: don't show up until years later. For instance of the
21:15
Speaker 1: Vietnam veterans. Now they know that the Vietnam in Vietnam,
21:20
Speaker 1: the spray cause diabetes, prostate cancer, heart conditions, and it
21:25
Speaker 1: might not show up until years later. So it's my
21:28
Speaker 1: job to know this, to know all the rules, to
21:30
Speaker 1: know all the regulations, to know how you can win
21:33
Speaker 1: your claim. So just clear up from our listeners, this
21:36
Speaker 1: is not about medical care. This is about claims and
21:39
Speaker 1: being about when you said spray. Can you explain to
21:43
Speaker 1: us exactly what you mean when you say the word
21:45
Speaker 1: sprayed During the Vietnam war. Okay, during the Vietnam War,
21:49
Speaker 1: they had agent orange. It was called agent orange, right,
21:53
Speaker 1: and it was a type of spray, a type of
21:56
Speaker 1: chemical that they sprayed on the foliage in Vietnam to
22:00
Speaker 1: kill the foeage. So it's like like weed killer almost, right.
22:06
Speaker 1: So what happens is the veterans had to spray this obviously,
22:10
Speaker 1: and a lot of them were exposed and the conditions
22:12
Speaker 1: didn't show up until years later. So now, if you're
22:17
Speaker 1: a veteran, you have if you're in Vietnam, you have diabetes,
22:20
Speaker 1: you have uh, prostate cancer, you have a heart condition,
22:24
Speaker 1: you have certain cancers. You can put in a claim.
22:27
Speaker 1: Now that's that's something because you know, I read a
22:31
Speaker 1: lot and I read about agent on which I read
22:32
Speaker 1: about you know, it's just being dropped down and on
22:36
Speaker 1: top of soldiers in certain areas to kill vegetation. And
22:40
Speaker 1: like I said, just like it's like walking on because
22:42
Speaker 1: you know, it's like me walking around my yard and
22:45
Speaker 1: using weed killer to kill you know, the region my rocks.
22:48
Speaker 1: So that imagined that being dropped down on you, right,
22:53
Speaker 1: and a lot of the military duty and they didn't
22:57
Speaker 1: get sick on the spot, but years later and each
23:01
Speaker 1: area of war. Each time of war have different conditions.
23:04
Speaker 1: So the afghanstand war, the Iraq war, you have different illnesses, yes,
23:09
Speaker 1: you did coming from those wars. And then the main
23:12
Speaker 1: thing and another the Gulf war. Right, that's when you
23:15
Speaker 1: had the burning, the burning of the right of the factors, right,
23:21
Speaker 1: and you was you was inhaling that along the way.
23:23
Speaker 1: I know my brother he was serving over there at
23:25
Speaker 1: the time, and I was worried about that because you know,
23:28
Speaker 1: let's put it this way. You inhale something, it comes
23:30
Speaker 1: into your body, it comes into your lungs, it comes
23:32
Speaker 1: in your bloodstream, and that's not gonna be a good thing.
23:35
Speaker 1: And so if you continue to live like that, just
23:38
Speaker 1: like the whole situation with coal miners and things like that,
23:40
Speaker 1: you know now that living under there in healing, you
23:43
Speaker 1: might not see your enemy, but your enemies into entering
23:47
Speaker 1: your body and doing damage. And that's really what you're about.
23:50
Speaker 1: When you're trying to protect these protect these veterans with
23:53
Speaker 1: information and get around the bureaucratic nonsense. It's sensible, tends
23:57
Speaker 1: to block the opportunity of to file claim. How do
24:00
Speaker 1: you feel when you that has to be really a
24:02
Speaker 1: good feeling for you, Dr King. It is because I
24:05
Speaker 1: really respect and honor our veterans, and so many of
24:09
Speaker 1: them don't have the information, and sometimes I feel we
24:12
Speaker 1: may be more impacted than others, if you know what
24:15
Speaker 1: I mean. Don't have the information, don't know how to
24:18
Speaker 1: fight the bureaucrat. That's my job though medically that's my job.
24:22
Speaker 1: I know, I know the disease, I know how it's
24:26
Speaker 1: connected to the military, and not only that you had
24:30
Speaker 1: contaminated water in Camp Lejune. There are a lot of
24:34
Speaker 1: military and military factors that go into your current illness,
24:40
Speaker 1: and a lot of veterans just don't know how to
24:42
Speaker 1: get their claims or they were denied. I want to
24:45
Speaker 1: move to something that's very important. There's online prescription um.
24:49
Speaker 1: You the CEO of Get your Refield dot Com. Tell
24:52
Speaker 1: us that the idea and tell us how it works.
24:57
Speaker 1: All right, So before I say that, I just want
25:00
Speaker 1: to make it clear. My baseline is as a medical doctor,
25:03
Speaker 1: and I have all of these projects because I just
25:05
Speaker 1: I just have all this energy. Okay, so get your threat.
25:09
Speaker 1: I kind of figured that Dr Kane. I gave out
25:11
Speaker 1: all these credits to let people know who you are
25:14
Speaker 1: talking to. Okay, Okay, So what happened was when the
25:19
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen in this pandemic started, I started getting calls
25:24
Speaker 1: from some of my family, maybe my family and my friends,
25:27
Speaker 1: and I started getting calls from former patients and even
25:31
Speaker 1: a couple of veterans. They said, Dr. Kane, we can't
25:34
Speaker 1: get our prescriptions fills. And I said, why not. We're
25:37
Speaker 1: on these medications. We can't get even the doctor's office
25:40
Speaker 1: had closed. Um even they couldn't afford right now to
25:45
Speaker 1: get and go to another to have another doctor's visit
25:49
Speaker 1: or to tell a medicine The appointment was like two
25:52
Speaker 1: or three weeks down the line. And these people had
25:54
Speaker 1: been on some of them have been on their medications
25:57
Speaker 1: for years and they needed to get a refill because
26:00
Speaker 1: you have to have a refill in order for the pharmacy,
26:02
Speaker 1: you know, to give you your medications. Some people had
26:05
Speaker 1: doing the pandemic, their health insurance was discontinued. You also
26:09
Speaker 1: had people, and I've worked with these people over the years.
26:12
Speaker 1: This is not new to the pandemic. They are released
26:15
Speaker 1: from detention centers, they're released from prison. They're given one
26:19
Speaker 1: month supply of medications and then it's up to them
26:22
Speaker 1: to figure out how to get their medications from that
26:25
Speaker 1: point on. So you have a lot of people who
26:28
Speaker 1: in March just say we're released from prison. They have
26:31
Speaker 1: a thirty day supplied, they have no way of getting
26:34
Speaker 1: another prescription because they're not even in the health care
26:37
Speaker 1: system pre pandemic, and so you have people with diabetes,
26:41
Speaker 1: high blood pressure, heart conditions asthma, cop D, even some
26:48
Speaker 1: people with cancer that need to take their medications and
26:51
Speaker 1: they can't get refilled. So once I started getting these calls,
26:55
Speaker 1: I said, hmm, that might there might be a need
26:58
Speaker 1: for this. So I created a website, get your Rebail
27:01
Speaker 1: dot com and it's temporary, is on an emergency basis.
27:04
Speaker 1: I did it just for the pandemic because I have
27:06
Speaker 1: a lot of other projects that I'm doing and to
27:09
Speaker 1: help people out. So they can go to the website,
27:13
Speaker 1: they have to currently have been on the medication. I'm
27:16
Speaker 1: not going to prescribe new medications for them, and I
27:19
Speaker 1: don't prescribe for them narcotics. I do not do that,
27:23
Speaker 1: all right, So if they are on diabetes high blood pressure,
27:27
Speaker 1: they can upload a copy of their just take a
27:30
Speaker 1: picture of your prescription off the bottle uploaded, and I'll
27:33
Speaker 1: write you a new prescription for a thirty days supply
27:38
Speaker 1: on an emergency basis for sixty days supply. Excuse me,
27:42
Speaker 1: and I will send it. We will email it to
27:45
Speaker 1: the pharmacy of your choice anywhere in the United States. Now,
27:50
Speaker 1: hasn't this been done before? I don't know what what
27:55
Speaker 1: you know that I just dumped it? Do it? Because
27:59
Speaker 1: it's an if. I'm just telling you. Sometimes, you know,
28:02
Speaker 1: because I'm on different pills because I'm a cancer survivor,
28:05
Speaker 1: and you know, so I had to go through the
28:08
Speaker 1: challenges of sometimes contacting my doctor and things like that.
28:11
Speaker 1: And so when I so I know exactly what you're
28:13
Speaker 1: talking about. I know exactly what they're concerned about. I
28:16
Speaker 1: walked up to a counter and we go, Okay, we
28:19
Speaker 1: can't give you the most subscriptions. You have to talk
28:21
Speaker 1: to your doctor. And you contact the doctor and he
28:24
Speaker 1: hadn't responded back to him, and so you're like, okay,
28:26
Speaker 1: look at I need my pills, I need my medicine
28:29
Speaker 1: and so so so, so basically go through it one
28:32
Speaker 1: more time. What one has to do to use the
28:35
Speaker 1: get your refield dot com that was established for the
28:37
