It exists now and I suppose it works well for the few who can afford it. That's the problem. Affording it. I am very turned off by calling patients "customers". It is a sacred duty, a calling and a privilege to care for the sick and to teach people to be well. Patients are not in any way and should not be regarded as customers. The relationship is not that simple. It is not just about the exchange of money for a service or product. It is much much more.
i just got back from the Rogue Food Conference held at Polyface Farm in Virginia. the main topic was PMAs and there were groups who help people with the legal process of setting them up. then, as fate would have it, i come home to find this e-mail!
i hadn't actually heard of PMAs although i'm sure i've been a member of several without knowing it. when i lived in NYC, i joined a weston price food group and we brought in raw dairy from amish farms in PA. and i guess my doctor, who does not take insurance, has one.
the Rogue Food Conference is an annual event (https://roguefoodconference.com/contact-us/) held at Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia. you can probably buy a recording of all the speakers.
one of the groups, ProAdvocate Group PMA (protection@proadvocate.org), was there and another group, who's name i can't remember and can't seem to find on the schedule. the discussions were very informative but the real stars of the show were Catherine Austin Fitts, Thomas Massie and, of course, the one and only, Joel Salatin.
we went last year and it was great. Amos Miller, the persecuted Amish farmer, was there with his attorney. the farm is a wonderful place! we've been there 4 or 5 times and are going to two more events later this summer. we bought 4 laying hens, bred and raised on the farm, to bring back to our farm, where they went right to work.
Interesting. I have an engagement tonight and can’t see this live. Will there be a recording? I started an art PMA in 2020 so I can continue producing performances during the pandemic in my backyard. I’m very interested to hear how PMAs are applying in the medical sector.

Using "faith-based principles", if meant in the religious sense, would be divisive and exclusionary.

I would love to hear anything else about the PMA discussion there or the conference overall. I didn't even know that it was happening!
