Ke kauoha ʻana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau ma ka pūnaewele a loaʻa iā lākou hāʻawi ʻia ma ka leka uila ke kānāwai inā hoʻokō ʻia kekahi mau koi. Loaʻa kēia mau koi mai nā mea āu e hoʻokō ai a hiki i nā mea pono e hoʻokō ʻia e ka ʻoihana āu e kauoha mai ai. E aʻo i nā ʻanuʻu e hōʻoia i ke kauoha ʻana mai kahinā meaʻoi aku ma ka pīʻaiʻai me kahi kūpono nā kauā.

Nā mea kuhikuhi pūnaewele

ʻAʻohe kānalua ua ʻike ʻoe i nā hoʻolaha a ua loaʻa iā ʻoe nā leka uila e koi ana ʻaʻole pono ke kauoha e kūʻai i kahi lāʻau inoa inoa. ʻO ke kauoha ʻana mai ia lāʻau lapaʻau he hewa nui.

No ke kūʻai ʻana i kahi lāʻau lapaʻau, ʻo ka mea nui loa e loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi palapala kuhikuhi maoli e hāʻawi i ka lāʻau lapaʻau. Ma ke kānāwai federal US, i mea e kūʻai aku ai iā ʻoe i ka lāʻau lapaʻau, pono e hiki i kēlā me kēia lāʻau lapaʻau ke hōʻoia ʻoe, ma ke ʻano he mea kūʻai aku, he pilina me ke kauka nāna i kākau i ka ʻōlelo kuhikuhi. Pono ka lāʻau lapaʻau e kau inoa i kāu kauka ma ke kau ʻana.

E haʻi aku kekahi mau lāʻau lapaʻau pūnaewele iā ʻoe e hiki i kā lākou "kauka" i loko o ka hale ke kākau iā ʻoe i kahi palapala me ka ʻike ʻole iā ʻoe. He kue maopopo keia i ke kanawai no ka mea, aohe kumu o ke "kauka" e hana ai i ka ma'i.

ʻO kahi nīnau nīnau kikoʻī i hāʻawi ʻia e kekahi mau lāʻau lapaʻau pūnaewele ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻokō i nā kūlana kumu loa no ka mākaukau diagnostic. I ka pōkole, he scam ia.

Nā Kauka Telemedicine

Me ka ʻōlelo ʻana, ke hoʻololi wikiwiki nei ka hiki ʻana mai o ka telemedicine pehea mākou e ʻike ai i ke kaʻina hana diagnostic. I ka wā ma mua, ua manaʻo ʻia he hiki ke hana ʻia nā diagnoses ma o ka nānā kino ʻana i ka mea maʻi.

Me ka telemedicine, hiki i nā kauka (he nui o lākou i hoʻohana ʻia e nā mea mālama ola kino) ke hana i nā diagnoses kūpono ma o ka hana ʻana i kahi "hoʻokolokolo" ma kāu kamepiula a i ʻole kelepona.

Ma kahi o nā "kauka" pūnaewele ʻaʻole i hōʻoia ʻia e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma ka pūnaewele, ʻo nā kauka telemedicine he mau kauka i hōʻoia ʻia e ka papa e loaʻa pinepine ka ʻae ʻia mai kahi hui aupuni. Ma 2017, aneane ʻehiku miliona ʻAmelika i komo i ka mālama ma o nā kauka telemedicine, a ke manaʻo ʻia nei e ulu nui ka helu.

No laila, ua loli nui nā hana lapaʻau e like me ka Federation of State Medical Boards e kākoʻo i nā lula e ʻae ana i nā kauka telemedicine e kākau i nā ʻōlelo kuhikuhi inā lōʻihi ka hoʻokō ʻia ʻana o kekahi mau ʻenehana a me nā pae olakino.

ʻAʻole ia manaʻo hiki ke kuhikuhi ʻia kekahi mea. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka telemedicine ʻAʻole kuhikuhi nā kauka i nā lāʻau lapaʻau e koi ai i kahi hoʻokolokolo pilikino, me Viagra a me nā mea kōkua hiamoe. ʻO nā ʻano lāʻau lapaʻau maʻamau i hiki i nā kauka telemedicine ke kākau: ʻO ka lāʻau lapaʻau pūnaewele maikaʻi loa

• Antibiotics
• Nā Antifungals
• Nā lāʻau allergy
• Hāpai waha
• Pahu ihu decongestant
• Nā lāʻau koko kiʻekiʻe
• Nā lāʻau hoʻohaʻahaʻa i ka cholesterol

ʻO ka hōʻoia ʻana he kūʻai ʻia ke kānāwai

E hōʻoia hiki iā ʻoe ke pane i kēia mau nīnau āpau me ka ʻae, e like me ka Federal Trade Commission (FTC) a me nā koi o ka US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA):

• Ke noi nei ka lāʻau lapaʻau i ka lāʻau lapaʻau? E like me ka mea i hōʻike ʻia ma luna, pono ʻoe e hāʻawi i kahi ʻōlelo kuhikuhi i kau inoa ʻia e ke kauka. ʻAʻole lawa ka nīnau nīnau. 
• Ua laikini ʻia ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma ka mokuʻāina i kū ai? loaa ka Papa Lapaʻau o kou mokuʻāina e hoʻoholo i kāna laikini. Inā ʻaʻole i laikini ʻia ma laila, a inā ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i kona wahi, a laila aia paha ia ma waho, aia ma kahi ʻāina ʻē.
• Hāʻawi lākou i kahi manawa e kamaʻilio kelepona me kahi lāʻau lapaʻau? ʻAʻole lawa ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi helu ʻole, pono ʻoe e hiki ke kamaʻilio me ke kauka lāʻau. Mai kauoha ʻoe i lāʻau lapaʻau mai kahi hale kūʻai lāʻau lapaʻau pūnaewele a hiki i ka wā i kāhea aku ai ʻoe i kēlā helu kelepona a kamaʻilio me ke kauka lāʻau lapaʻau, ʻoiai inā pono ʻoe e nīnau (ka mea āu e manaʻo ai) he nīnau ʻoʻopa. ʻO ke kī ʻo ka hōʻoia ʻana aia kahi lāʻau lapaʻau bona fide ma nā limahana. ʻO ka lāʻau lapaʻau pūnaewele maikaʻi loa

Ke maopopo iā ʻoe he kūpono ka lāʻau lapaʻau a loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi palapala kuhikuhi kūpono mai kāu kauka, hiki iā ʻoe kūʻai ma ke kānāwai i nā lāʻau lapaʻau mai kahi lāʻau lapaʻau pūnaewele. ʻO ka lāʻau lapaʻau pūnaewele maikaʻi loa

Hale Laau Laau haole

'A'ole 'ae 'ia no 'Amelika ke kauoha 'ana i nā lā'au lapa'au mai kekahi lā'au lapa'au ma waho o 'Amelika Hui Pū 'ia, me Canada a i 'ole Mekiko. He kānāwai kēia i kau ʻia e ka US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). I kekahi mau kūlana, hiki ke nānā ʻia kēlā kānāwai a ʻaʻole hoʻokō ʻia.

Nā kānāwai FDA no ke kūʻai ʻana mai nā lāʻau lapaʻau haole 'Ōlelo 'ia he lā'au lapa'au hiki ke lawe 'ia aku i 'Amelika Hui Pū 'ia ke ho'okō 'ia nā kūlana 'ekolu.

• ʻAʻole ʻae ʻia ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa akā ua kuhikuhi ʻia no kahi maʻi koʻikoʻi ʻaʻohe mea like ma ka home.
• ʻO ka nui i lawe ʻia mai ʻaʻole ʻoi aku ma mua o ka hoʻolako ʻana i ʻekolu mahina.
• Hoʻolaha ʻia ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma US Customs me ka palapala kuhikuhi kūpono a/a i ʻole palapala.

E like me ka Ka HuiʻAleʻAmelika, hiki ke hoʻopiʻi ʻia ka lawe ʻana mai i ke kānāwai ma ke ʻano he hewa, hiki ke hoʻopaʻi ʻia a hiki i hoʻokahi makahiki paʻahao a me ka uku $100,000 me ka nānā ʻole inā ʻike ʻoe he hewa ia.
