![]() They were especially curated and selected because of things they cover. Covers really quite a range of different potential bacterial infections. GLENN: And the Jase case has, what? Five flights of antibiotics? SHAWN: Right. That also is licensed to do business in your state as well. So that's where regulatory-wise, it goes through a board-certified position, licensed in your state. When you compare them to opioids and things like that. And they're all relatively, I'm going to say low risk. And why not? And that can be applied to a lot of different medications and conditions. I will give you a year of prescription for this medication. You are someone I as a physician, would feel comfortable, knowing that you have regular follow-up. These are - you've been on your blood pressure meds ten years. So really, we're talking about the legacy drugs. Again, though, coming up with some other things in the works there. SHAWN: So when it comes to the controlled substances, that's just something that we're not able to help with right now. SHAWN: Yeah, and I think trying to balance access and empowerment with appropriateness, is also really important for us. That would cause you all kinds of trouble. There are certain medications that are just disqualified, right off the bat. There's no way I can get you a year supply of your ADD medication. So of course, controlled substances, is just an immediate off the list. Is not everything is an appropriate or safe option. And part of this though, is not everything is on the table. Access to the medications, at a reasonable rate. The biggest thing, bringing up kind of regulations, you know, our goal, we want to empower people. But do you have to have your doctor call in to you guys? Or what do you do? SHAWN: Right. And, you know, they're creating all kinds of problems and shortages. And how are you - because the government is so freaked out about every kind of pill for you. But that's another one that is in the works. That's another one, that we could maybe come back and talk about. As soon as you take it out of the fridge, the clock starts ticking. GLENN: How could you even store it for a year, though? SHAWN: So if it's stored properly, you can, in some cases, get up to a year of viability out of your insulin. SHAWN: And right now, is limited to pills, tablets, for the most part. There's some on there that's 40, 50, $60. GLENN: And a 12-month supply is 60 bucks. Isn't that anti-depression medication, or not? SHAWN: Yeah, that is one. And I don't recognize any of these drugs, that I'm on one of them. And made a much more direct connection between ourselves, the patient, and the physicians. CAROL: And so this kind of - has taken all that out. And we're disconnected from the true cost of the carrier that we received. Just because we're so used to dealing with insurance companies, and copays. So packaging that all together, turns out though, it's probably a lot more accessible than people realize. Get your prescriptions, and have them sent out. You have to pay for the physician visit, to have that encounter, to get the prescriptions. It's not just the medications you have to pay for. But what we've tried to do is basically make it as accessible as possible. It's so dependent on the actual medication you're taking. I know my daughter's medication for her anti-seizure is like $700 a month. GLENN: How expensive is it to buy - to buy a year's worth. They can get access to up to a year supply of their - whatever chronic medication they take. Being able to do the same thing for chronic conditions. And so finding a way to do our same service with the Jase case. Everyone is out there, dealing with different personal conditions. Knowing that that was just really the first step. We have been working on this for a while. What are you bringing? SHAWN: Well, as you mentioned, yeah, this was a year ago. He's the founder and CEO of Jase Medical. Where are you going to get that? That's the question I asked you guys, a year ago. All the things that are keeping people alive, that probably wouldn't have been alive, you know, a few years ago. And if you know anything at all, about when the system breaks down, your anti-psychotic drugs run out in 30 days. Because as we were talking, I said, you know, my daughter takes anti-seizure medication. And it has five different antibiotics in it. And they had what they put together was the Jase case. Jase medical is a - a sponsor of - are you just Blaze? You're not radio too, right? STU: Yeah. Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors
