MediBloc, Control your Medical Records.

In Venezuela and in many other countries, health institutions do not have an automated patient medical records system; patient data is kept manually and stored in large files, each institution keeps its files in a centralized form, and every time the patient visits a different institution, they will have to open a new file with their medical data, a repetitive work, which generates unnecessary costs and efforts.

MediBloc, an innovative project that ensures that doctors have access to patient records quickly, was created in the hopes of solving said problems.

Medical Records - My Experience.

In 2007, when I was 37 years old, I was diagnosed with cancer, and therefore I had to run a series of medical exams and visit different clinics in search of a doctor who I could trust, since in that medical professional I would put my life and my future. Whenever I visited a different doctor I had to keep a folder with all the studies that had been performed on me; X-rays, tomographies, blood tests, among others, then the doctor would write down my data with a pen on a history sheet. Forgetting the folder was inconceivable since if I did, I would have to return to my house to look for it, I was always careful not to lose it, I did not want to run those exams again, it would be extremely expensive.

If during that time I had had MediBloc, I would not have had to carry that folder under my arm every time I visited a doctor, because with my authorization said medical professional would have access to my medical records quickly and with ease. Still, after 10 years, every time I visit a doctor I have to talk about my background and its consequences, with Medibloc I would only have to authorize access to my records and every piece of relevant information would be displayed, I would not have to explain in detail the process I went through and thus, the appointment would not take as much time as it would have had I not had my records in a safe online platform.

Medibloc, Improving the Health Care System.

MediBloc was born out of the need to have a medical data platform using the benefits of the blockchain, founded by Dr. Allen Wookyun Kho and Dr. Eunsol Lee, physicians with a solid training who were very capable to carry out this project. The MediBloc team is building its own chain of blocks to take full advantage of the opportunities offered by the blockchain.

Forbes named it as one of the 10 Korean startups that will be launched for this year 2018.

With MediBloc, patients will have control of their medical data, can visit any doctor and give them access to their medical records, providing the professional with all the necessary information to give the patient better care and a more assertive diagnosis.

What problems will MediBloc solve?

- Access to patient's medical data:

Currently there are laws that regulate how and who has access to medical data, these vary according to each country, but usually the data is very centralized. This has the consequence that the doctor might not have access to the information needed to attend to the patient, nor does it allow the patient's medical records to be updated in a timely manner, in order to follow their evolution.

Mediblock solves this problem by giving the patient control of their medical data, so that they can give the doctor access to their data when required, quickly and reliably.

- Safety:

Another problem with the data recording systems used today is their lack of security; they can suffer manipulations and the data can be taken without the patient's permission, but with the chain of blocks that MediBloc offers, security is absolute and the data is only shared with your consent.

- Medical research:

Access to patient data is very limited due to privacy laws, which hinders the development of medical research since reliable data are the main input when conducting scientific research.

With MediBloc, patients can give permission to access their data for scientific research, helping to achieve a better quality of life or a cure for the disease that afflicts them. Also patients can receive MED rewards in exchange for delivering their records, it is a win-win transaction.

MediBloc's Growth Potential.

MediBloc offers an API and an open source SDK, tools that developers can use to create new services within the platform, serving various health, insurance and data exchange industries. This open source optimizes the posibility of new changes in the platform as years pass by, ensuring that MediBloc is indeed here to stay.

The launch of MEDX's Airdrop, MediBloc's ERC20 token has already begun, request the launch from the air if you have MED in block 163890. MediBloc has already launched SDK v0.1.

What is a MainNet?

It is a blockchain whose function is to transfer digital currency between a sender and a recipient, available to the public. It can be updated whenever project teams or cryptocurrency open source communities require it.

MainNET - MED & MEDX

Medibloc decided to build a MainNet or blockchain to optimize its services. Launching two tokens: MED and MEDX.

At the launch of the main network, those who buy will receive 0.5 MainNet coins per MED and 0.5 MainNET coins per MEDX.

Advantages of having the Medibloc Service.

In addition to the aforementioned advantages, Medibloc offers flexibility in the patient's account, so that they can have absolute control of their own medical records. The system is designed so that the patient, at the moment of creating the account, authorizes relatives and people close to them to deliver their medical data in case of an emergency, ensuring that they receive the best care possible when its most needed.

If any institution or any person needs to have access to a patient's data, it will be impossible without their authorization.

Here is the table explaining the access levels of the patient's MediBloc account:

Conclusion

MediBloc is a decentralized health information system that, using the benefits of the blockchain, gives the patient complete control of their medical records.

Medical advances will be made in an accelerated way by having access to health data, with prior authorization from patients.

Patients can save time and money by accessing their data easily and quickly. They can even earn money by selling their health information to research companies, making it easier to help said companies in their efforts to find cures to many diseases, a win-win situation.

But above all, the main advantage of MediBloc is that the healthcare system will be improved, since the doctor will have all the information about the patient's condition, reducing the margin of error in the diagnosis.

Buying their tokens is to invest in your healthcare.
