RE: Steemit Crypto Academy Contest / S2W3 - Blockchain in our lives. by @sikan-eyen
I really learnt a lot from this presentation @sikan-eyen. Let me react to this below:
It is pertinent to mention that medical fraud which is very common amongst many facilities will be very difficult as there is a trackable paper trail.
This is one area blockchain is simply the best. Its storage mechanism is immutable, meaning that data cannot easily be changed, destroyed or manipulated. So those bad eggs in the healthcare sector that change patient data for financial gains will really have a tough time doing that in a blockchain system. I wish all the healthcare facilities will adopt blockchain for patient records management. Thanks @sikan-eyen
It may sound awkward but certainly these fraudulent acts is going on across various healthcare facilities in the name of making more money... I am a witness to this, especially in the cases where the patient are ignorant of the services rendered to them.
Adopting the implementation in the health sector will go a long way in providing a long standing remedy to this.
Thank you for engaging my post.
