Healthcare Entites – Layer 1
Organizations that provide direct healthCare services to the PUblic
Institutional Providers: Inpatient hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), long-term care and skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), urgent care centers, community health clinics, and outpatient diagnostic centers.
Professional Providers: Independent physician practices, specialist groups, allied health professionals (e.g., physical therapy, occupational therapy), home health agencies, and telehealth provider organizations.
These are non-limiting examples of healthcare entities.
Ancillary Businesses – Layer 2
Vendors or Businesses supporting the delivery oF healthcare
Healthcare Vendors: Therapeutic and device producers, diagnostic suppliers, device suppliers, and specialized logistics networks. Electronic Health Record (EHR) vendors, enterprise resource planning (ERP) platforms, interoperability middleware, cybersecurity firms.
Other Support Businesses: ISP’s and network support, fleet vehicle vendors, utility providers, real estate organizations, constructionc ompanies, administrative support organizatons.
These are non-limiting examples of ancillary businesses
01
Physician-Pegged Supply
The circulating supply of NMD is not arbitrary, algorithmic, or subject to speculative dilution. Instead, the token supply is structurally tied directly to a concrete, real-world healthcare metric: 1 NMD Unit = 1 active patient care physician; this ratio is locked ensuring a truly scarce supply pegged to one of the most valuable resources on the planet.
02
Macroeconomic Valuation Anchor
Rather than relying on volatile open-market bidding or traditional hard asset backing, the baseline value of NMD is pegged to a stable macroeconomic productivity anchor: 1 NMD Unit = the Average Annual Economic Output of a single patient care physician. This ensures a predictable, non-speculative valuation model built on reproducible economic data that is reflected in the GDP.
03
Supply and Value Data Origin
IMPLAN is an independent, third-party economic modeling platform used across academia, government, and industry to measure how one part of the economy ripples through the rest of it. When a physician treats patients, that activity pays staff, purchases supplies, and supports jobs at other local businesses, which then spend that money again elsewhere — IMPLAN adds up all of those direct, indirect, and follow-on effects into a single output figure. It’s used here because it’s a neutral, established standard rather than a number produced or controlled by any one organization.
