It would interest you to know that the third major cause of death is medical error as can be seen in the picture below.
SOME KEY FEATURES OF MEDIBLOC
The main purpose of MediBloc is to allow healthcare data to be more accessible while stimulating the contents of medical information for the purpose of scientific advancement. Some key features of this awesome platform include:
patient centered healthcare information system:
MediBloc will put health record data back into patients’ hands and allow owners of data to decide who is allowed to view their health record information. Both information recorded from outside and inside of the medical institution, and data that was capture by a patient can all be stored in mediblocData loss/fraud prevention:
Data is backed up and stored in a decentralized data storage system.Moreso, only verified healthcare affiliates will have access to edit the medical data of a patient. Since modifications of data are transparent to all users on the blockchain, unethical adjustments are highly unlikely.The ERC20 MED token reward system:
This encourages data owners to contribute to the data ecosystem through profit empowerment. This native currency MediBloc (MED) will facilitate the content sharing of records through a rewards system. Both patients and providers will be compensated for their contributions into the ecosystem, and patients will be able to use the tokens to initiate routine medical transactions (e.g pharmaceutical & insurance payments) with those partnered with Medibloc.Worldwide data interoperability:
Global exchange of real-time information among the medical community will stimulate medical advancement and reduce unnecessary data repetition. Medical staff won’t have to wait for updated information, which will ultimately give you streamlined care with a greater chance of correct diagnosis.Security:
The blockchain protocol being utilized offers the highest level of security to ward off data hacks of any kind.HOW DOES MEDIBLOC WORK?
MediBloc Core:
This layer is a health care distributed network, a distributed database that uses the latest encryption technology to safeguard data. Since blockchain storage is limited, the Core layer supplies extra storage to counter healthcare data loss as it provides a backup and recovery system.MediBloc Application:
This layer enables people to use various applications (e.g. mobile applications and web applications) to access, utilize and manage the healthcare information.THE PATIENT-RESEARCHER BENEFIT

This is an interesting concept but I am confused as to who holds the encryption key to the data? Is it the doctor? The patient? The health care administrator?
Would the app be allowed on a cell phone etc?
If you lose your phone can it be hacked to reveal your info?
Is the blockchain only allowed to be stored on certain authorized computers?
the postin keys are held by the patients. i know dat woould pose a huge problem as to what gets to happen when the patient is unable to speak or type. that can be answered by the medibloc team
