What is the HUMAN HEALTH PROJECT?
A global community of doctors, nurses, practitioners and patient advocates from conventional and alternative medicines who help each other with questions they have about medical cases.

It is a health care technology platform that has the potential to shift the paradigm of medicine as it is practiced today. A community of physicians, health care workers, and patient advocates from allopathic and alternative medicine traditions will be integrated to provide free, accessible health solutions as a basic human right for all.

Who can become a member?
Medical professionals of all types, including physicians, nurses, physical therapists, dietitians, alternative medicine practitioners, and patient advocates. Membership is open to medical professionals around the globe, and since medical qualifications are not uniform, HHP does not limit membership to those with specific credentials.

Is there a fee to join the HUMAN HEALTH PROJECT?
No, membership and use of the website is free. The HUMAN HEALTH PROJECT is completely funded by donations.

How do I get started?
You first apply to become a member by providing a few details. The site administrator reviews the application and either approves your membership or contacts you for more information. Once your application is approved, you can submit and comment on cases.

Who can submit and comment on a case?
Any member of the HHP community.

What do I need to submit a case?
You provide a written description along with any relevant images.

To maintain patient confidentiality, you must NOT include any information, written or visual, that could identify the patient, either in the written description or in uploaded documents or images. A case will be rejected if the patient can be identified.

How does case discussion progress?
Initial discussion of a case will typically consist of input from members in the relevant specialties but it is also open at any time to all members who may have information pertinent to the case. For example, a case may begin with a discussion among primary care physicians and other specialists of possible diagnoses for the medical condition. As the discussion progresses, other members may advise the case submitter on the dietary issues present with the condition, and yet others may submit information on alternative holistic treatments or psychological issues. The progression of the discussion will be unique for each case.

What do I do with the feedback on a case?
You decide whether to implement suggestions as you see fit. You may also request additional information from other members.

How can I ensure that information I post to the site is secure and anonymous?
Anonymity of cases is ensured at all times. Administrators check all submitted information for anonymity as well as quality. Cases in which the patient is identified or those containing inappropriate content will be returned or rejected. Until the administrator approves these, they do not appear on the site.

As a member, you can also opt to remain anonymous on the site.

What if my application, case, or comment is not approved?
The site administrator will contact you for further information.
