Why Firefly
For generations, fireflies have been a source of wonder and joy. To ancient Aztecs, fireflies were flashes of truth and knowledge in an otherwise dark universe. In Mayan mythology, they symbolized the guiding light of stars. In this sense, the Firefly is a perfect metaphor for what we want to do. Firefly will serve as an instrument of knowledge, guidance, and hope -- especially for those facing their darkest moments.
What Firefly Does
Firefly is about helping you get the right care, at the right time, and in the right place. Whether it’s helping you find a treatment with fewer side effects, a doctor that really understands, or just someone to share tips with, Firefly is here for you.
To better serve you, Firefly often asks questions related to your health. For instance, Firefly may ask what symptoms you are experiencing so it can suggest treatments that have worked for others. Just like your doctor, the more your tell Firefly the better it can do it’s job. And remember, telling Firefly something doesn’t mean anyone else will know about it unless you want them to.
Firefly will start by helping you find the best health information and, if you want, connect with the right support groups and peers. Pretty soon Firefly will also help you discover the best treatments, clinical trials, and doctors for you. Down the road Firefly will not only help you find the best care, but help you manage it as well. For instance, finding the right treatment is great but wouldn’t it also be nice if you could get refills online too? Get them paid for by your insurance plan so you don’t have to spend hours trying to get your hard-earned money back? Join Firefly today, tell us a bit about your health and what you like and don’t like and we’ll get there together – we promise.
