Andy Schoonover - Turning Healthcare Into Bitcoin Circularity
Mon Feb 02 2026
In this episode, I'm chatting with Andy Schoonover, the founder and CEO of CrowdHealth, a revolutionary community-powered alternative to health insurance that’s helping thousands of people fund their healthcare through crowdfunding, not corporate middlemen.
But here’s where it gets really interesting: Andy’s not just disrupting healthcare, he’s building Bitcoin circularity into the system, working with major hospital networks to accept Bitcoin payments and create a parallel economy where your healthcare dollars never touch the broken fiat system.
In this conversation, we dive deep into medical freedom, why the insurance industry is fundamentally broken, how CrowdHealth is achieving zero bankruptcies among their members, and Andy’s bold vision for a Bitcoin-powered healthcare future.
