MediBloc: Revolutionising and decentralising medical health records

in #crypto6 years ago (edited)

From the beginning, health is a number priority in human life. Health they say is wealth. When you are fully loaded with wealth and fortune, I wonder how you can manage it without a sound health. If you haven’t been sick and get admitted for once, don’t pray for such, for people in such condition are deeply concern on how they can come back on their feet. There is no Demon dangerous than sickness. It can come anytime, any day when we do not prepare for it. It can persuade one to spend the money meant for other useful things. Hmm, who are you not to do that? when this Demon called sickness arrives, no one dares to query it than to get it out on time. From different studies and researches, money and time spent on health matters can never be overemphasized. This is why the doctors, nurse and other health practitioners undoubtedly earned their prestige. In each nation, the health practitioner is been taking care in order to motivate and encourage them. It is only a foolish nation that will decide not to compensate these people regularly because they are like one of the heartbeats of the nation.

Anything health, is a critical issue one need to handle with the utmost care. No hospital will dare try to claim its standard or eligibility to practice health service without having records for each and every patients. When you get to the hospital or clinic, the number one thing you will be demanded is your hospital card. This serves as a guide to lead the nurse to where your health account record is. It is very difficult and dangerous to attend to a patient without any record. In this sense, this patient will be advised to register with them in case of another time.

The medicine in each country varies, so this makes the data from each patient to be centralized and thus made many patients vulnerable to public insecurity. I have witnessed a case whereby a patient was in a coma, due to the fact that his account book was public, he remained in that state for complete three years. By now, you will understand that some callous people are behind it. The poor guy wanted to live, but the crocodile’s friend or relative won’t allow him to do so because his true status has been shown to them. They only do that, in order to inherit his property. Isn’t this enough to fear centralized account records?

Digital medical records systems are slow to be implemented and are not designed in a way that gives power over the information to the patient. This is speaking about lack of digitalization.Therefore having the medical record being built on blockchain will be a nice idea. Medical data has been subjected to stringent privacy laws which regulate how and who has access to the data. This causes issues in the form of inefficiencies when it comes to patient care as well as prohibiting progress in data analysis. This is where MediBloccome in. MediBloc is a decentralized healthcare information system

MediBloc breaks down the current silos of health information and redistributes the sovereignty of health information back to each individual. Patients, healthcare providers, and researchers will all benefit through MediBloc)

MediBloc has been able to hand over control over medical data back into the hands of patients. The MediBloc ecosystem gives patients complete access to share their data with relevant parties.It open ways for healthcare providers to reduce or eradicate medical error and deliver their utmost best care by having full access and understand individual's health information. Also, the researchers can now ensure medical breakthroughs at a fast speeding pace by having easier access to the targeted health data

Furthermore, the patients can now save their precious money and as well time by having easier access to the data concerning their health. They can sell their health data to researchers and thus simplifies the medical process as well to ensure that doctors have all the useful information that is needed to maximize the care the patient desired.

No tree will dare grow without its deep root. MediBloc was founded by Dr. Allen Wookyun Kho and Dr. Eunsol Lee. These people indeed have a very strong background in the medical field and as well as engineering fields. Isn’t this superb? They are handling this project with no doubt. MediBloc arose hearing the calls from the affected patients and having them built on the blockchain will be a perfect answer to this call. Blockchain technology is the perfect solution to the problems that are currently plaguing medical record systems. So has made the MediBloc team to decide on building their own blockchain in order not to have limited opportunity to revolute the healthcare data. They will be able to have the full power of blockchain without being limited to what existing networks offer.

MediBloc can safely and securely integrate the scattered data from various institutions, and can also collect health data from devices like the smartphone. This is indeed a revolution. The Patients will be able to manage their own personal medical records based on individual needs and thereby setting grounds for exercising ownership and having control over their personal medical records.

Patients have full access to their data and can assign access permissions for medical institutions and allow authorization for those who can write data on MediBloc Also other participants- individuals, research institutions, private corporations interested in obtaining medical information will be able to access with permission.)

It is only in an emergency case when a patient allows the third party to take decision for him. This will be based on the laid down agreement from the patient statements.

Additionally, This platform is aiming to build new service which entails MediBloc platform API and SDK with the software engineers and developer communities in order to exchange data with the platform and drive innovations in the healthcare applications market.

The health data is not only useful for the patient but also important for the researchers. The patient can easily earn a toke called MED while exchanging his data with the health care researchers
