Dr Crystal Luchkiw, Thank you for standing up for your patients & all of humanity. Here's a project which a group of us across Canada, USA & world are working on in Multihome-Community to organize our own essential goods & services including medicine, hiring & supporting local practitioners under contract. Our work jibes with Anglefish's Private Membership Association practice described below in comments.
DO-WE-KNOW-WHO-WE-ARE-? Community-Economy Web-software. 'Indigenous' (Latin 'self-generating') Economic Cultural Medicine:
COLONIALISM's LEGACY
Western top-down colonial 'exogenous' (L. 'other-generated') oligarch imposed institutional illness-practice has been bought & captured by the oligarchy which owns big-pharma. These hierarchal 'illness' systems are impersonal typically involving institutional 'care' units with 5-12 patients, recipients, clients etc. From the patient perspective, their experience is to interact with 5 shift-work staff plus 3 specialists per day totaling 2922 changes-of-the-guard per year. Under 'needs-based-assessment' this professionalized system works on the deficits of patients, residents etc rather than the most important patient capacities, strengths & self-worth as collective contributors. I write as a Specialized Educator with over 40 years of practice.
ALL HUMANITY's 'INDIGENOUS' COMMUNITY-ECONOMY HERITAGE
Yet all humanity's ancient indigenous 'economic' (Greek 'oikos' = 'home' + 'namein' = 'care-&-nurture') cultural medicine is still ready for our organizational benefit. All humanity's worldwide indigenous ancestors & 1st Nations here organized medicine & other aspects of society & economy in the ~100 (50-150) person Multihome-Dwelling-Complex (eg. Longhouse-apartment, Pueblo-townhouse & Kanata-village). This 'fractal' ('fraction, multiplier, building-block, where-the-part-contains-the-whole') Multihome organization of strengths makes people strong at every level of human society, worth many millions of dollars for each multihome then multiplied to neighbourhood, village, city, region, nation, confederacy, continent & hemispheric economic councils. Today 70% of people still live in Multihomes within an average 32 dwelling-units = ~100 people. 20% of Multihome-dwellers are extended-families living intentionally in proximity for social & economic collaboration providing trillions of $ worth of reciprocal collective care, goods & services / year to the Turtle-Island (N. America) economy / year as its largest essential economic sector. The Multihome & neighbourhood are exactly where medicine should be situated & group-organized as part of internal contractual 'community' (L 'com' = 'together' + 'munus' = 'gift-or-service') agreement.
Following and sending prayers for your support. Have you considered starting your own Private Membership Association practice? Members of an association do not fall under the jurisdiction of local, state, and federal governments and corresponding laws and regulations. https://www.pmasolutions.us/

DO-WE-KNOW-WHO-WE-ARE-? http://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/structure/9-do-we-know-who-we-are is a web-based Community-Economy software enabling those 70% of all populations still culturally connected in the Multihome to:
A) CATALOGUE local individual & business for: talents, goods, services, resources & dreams. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/home/membership
B) MAP local proximal collaborative relations for complementary economic concertation
C) ACCOUNT for collective contributions, buying, selling & co-investment.
D) COMMUNICATE such as formally through COUNCIL PROCESS or Both-Sides-Now, Equal-time, Recorded & Published dialogues for reaching formal agreement together as well as conflict-resolution. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/structure/both-sides-now-equal-time-recorded-dialogues
