Forward Uses Technology to Enhance Experience at Doctor's Office
Forward is all about proactive versus reactive healthcare and at the center of it is founder and CEO Adrian Aoun. He joins Alyssa Julya Smith at Forward's Los Angeles location to talk about some of the benefits of Forward and how technology is being used to help with preventative healthcare.
He explains that Tesla's and iPhone's can predict when they're likely to break down and intervene to fix things before it happens and that should be the same with healthcare. Forward created
personalized health plans through an in-depth understanding of a person's genetics, blood test results, biomarkers and daily lifestyle.
Aoun also explains that Forward doesn't use insurance, but is based on a monthly membership cost that allows Forward to do full diagnostic tests without hidden fees or bills from blood work or other lab testing, explaining that it's all done in the office.
Nick Bailey, president, and CEO at Re/Max, LLC joined Cheddar News to talk about the company's strong Q4 earnings results and the tight real estate market overall. "Real estate has continued to be a very strong sector, and coming into '22, we're already seeing the spring selling season be accelerated because of such high buyer demand," he said. "Buyers thinking that interest rates could fluctuate and go up even more are wanting to be in the market sooner than later."
A still-unidentified attacker was able to steal 254 tokens from 17 traders who held their NFTs on the OpenSea marketplace. Cheddar's Alex Vuocolo takes a close look at how the crypto community is responding.
Space travel is growing rapidly, and one billionaire businessman has purchased three SpaceX flights in order to push the industry forward. The Polaris Dawn, the first of three flights, will launch later this year, and its crew will conduct the first commercial spacewalk after they've reached the highest orbit in over 50 years. Jared Isaacman, Polaris Program Mission Commander and Founder & CEO of Shift4, joins Closing Bell to discuss the Polaris program's mission, when the first launch will happen and what it will entail, balancing his business with space exploration efforts, charitable efforts with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and more.
