Revival Strategy 5 BRIEF: Launching the American Health Restoration Medical Association
Imagine a national AI-enabled medical association
dedicated to the restoration of American Health.
America faces a profound health crisis marked by skyrocketing chronic disease rates, declining life expectancy, and unsustainable healthcare spending. Despite billions spent, our nation remains one of the UNhealthiest population in the developed world.
Meanwhile, millions of Americans are turning to alternative and functional medicine, not just for relief, but for hope, prevention, and real healing.
Key Points & Strategic Vision
What if the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) partnered with alternative medicine organizations to create a powerful coalition rooted in science, outcomes and shared purpose? We propose to create a nationally recognized, AI-enabled, outcomes-driven American Health Restoration Medical Association—AHRMA—that restores American health by unifying lifestyle-first healing disciplines under one credible, organized, and scientifically rigorous umbrella.
- Challenge: America’s current medical model favors pharmaceutical disease management over true health restoration.
- Opportunity: Functional, integrative, lifestyle and other medicine practitioners are already reversing chronic disease—but lack a unified voice, national presence, and policy influence.
- Solution: AHRMA—the American Health Restoration Medical Association—modeled in credibility after the AMA but designed to focus on root cause, education, health outcomes, and AI-assisted innovation.
Key Tactics
- Unify Healing Disciplines: We’re proposing that naturopaths, functional clinicians, chiropractors, nutritionists, health coaches and more than a dozen additional disciplines could unite under a single credentialing coalition.
- Create Shared AI-Assisted Clinical Guidelines: Open-source, outcomes-driven protocols for chronic disease avoidance, decline and reversal.
- Launch a Public Campaign: “Health Restoration over Disease Management” with testimonials, science, success rewards, enhanced with AI-powered tools.
- Pilot Reimbursement Models: Select 5 state pilots to document and set standards for insurance-supported lifestyle medicine treatments reimbursements.
- Influence Policy: Host Congressional briefings to secure bipartisan support for a standard of care focused on healing.
- Leverage the research and preventive health services from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), updating the benefits vs. harms of screenings and interventions for people without signs or symptoms of the condition.
Replicate and Scale Using Success Models
- Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM)
- VA Whole Health Initiative
- Plantrician Project
- Food is Medicine Coalition
- Alliance for Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare (AAIH)
- Academic Consortium for Integrative Medicine & Health (ACIMH)
Definition of Success
AHRMA is recognized as the national voice of health restoration. Within 3 years, it demonstrates measurable reversal of chronic disease in pilot regions, secures insurance partnerships, and becomes the go-to platform for AI-powered, lifestyle-first clinical standards and raises large endowments to confirm and document the healing powers of alternative medicine.
Why It Matters Now
This isn’t a fringe idea—it’s a future-ready solution whose time has come.
America deserves a medical association that puts health outcomes above billing codes and offers patients a real path away from chronic disease.
For tens of thousands of clinicians, this is the opportunity to move beyond the limitations of “sick care” and align with a mission that truly heals. Let’s build a unified movement where practitioners practice what works—and patients finally get well.
