Blockchain transforms health

in #blockchain9 years ago


The revolution of blockchain close access to the health care industry. Research conducted by IBM showed that 16% of executives surveyed in this area intend to implement the blockchain in the near future, and another 56% plan to do so by 2020. Medical companies, technology innovators and the rest of the health care industry are interested in how to implement the changes as quickly as possible.

This will solve many problems which today are detrimental to the industry. Using the blockchain you can create a shared database, access to which will be able to get doctors and providers regardless of which electronic medical system they use. This returns a higher degree of security and confidentiality, and administrative processes for physicians will be accelerated, which will give the opportunity to spend more time on patient care.

The adoption and implementation of the blockchain will become a revolution in healthcare. This will reduce the time spent on work with large volumes of data.

"Now is probably the best time in our history, in order to use a new approach to data exchange in healthcare," said John Halamka, chief information officer at Boston medical center Beth Israel Deaconess.

Already developed and tested a number of apps that work with the use of the blockchain. One is the MedRec, which is designed to improve electronic health records and allows you to securely access patient records in case of any necessity, saving from spending time and resources on duplication, problems with confusion in the reports, etc.

With the new application, patients and doctors will receive a single access to your medical history. In addition, if patients wish to provide researchers access to their medical records, their data will be used anonymously, which could accelerate the development of medicine.
