Abstract :

The blockchain is comparatively a new technology used to store and verify transactions records for online cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum etc. The system is distributed and superfluous making it difficult for the transaction to be faked or rescinded. The other implications of blockchain technology include healthcare and educations and research liaries. Telemedicine and blockchain share a common objective of empowering an individual by amplifying the workflow for the practitioner as does the clinical investment. This model works by elimination of the middle man hence it is both value based and patient centric. This strategy empowers the patient to make better health choices, have greater access to healthcare and dropped medical costs by making facilities available when needed instead of waiting until its necessary. There is an improvement in quality of each visit as the data gathered is meticulously stored. Additionally an incentive model can be structured based on its ability to accelerate an economy of scale. Using cashless mode for payments in the form of cryptocurrencies is not novel. Standardization of any process has its advantages and disadvantages. Periodic access to healthcare allows early diagnosis of the disease or the condition and hence lowers the cost of treatment for patients, practitioners and insurance companies. Blockchain has a long way to go before being incorporated into the field of health and education. However it may evolve faster if focused on direct patient value based model. Understanding this technology could lead us to achieve prompt diagnosis, refine focus and even better the administration.
