Topic: Blochain in the medical industry?! - page 4. (Read 1531 times)
Medical data on blockchain will be the key driver for the technology to widely accepted across all the industry segments. Especially, with sensitive data with regards to Biohal’s project. With the use of liquid biopsy and dried serum technology, the medical results of early detection of cancer. The data is very sensitive and any hacks similar to Singapore medical records hack could really create a havoc.
Bitcoin is a product of blockchain and we are seeing that parent invention is getting attention nowadays. We have also seen some research about the usage of blockchain in banking as well as in real estate sectors. I won't be surprised if I see blockchain technology in most of the mass communication sectors in the future.
Where do you see the blockchain makinh an impact?
Blockchain technology can be used in any industry because in almost every business there is need of keeping data securely in ledger and what can be better than blockchain ledger tech for this. Also link you have shared is messed up link for this news is https://apple.news/AMj2C_Cl1Soi2KIM-FrfOyg
I'm positive that the Blockchain would be a big development for the medical industry. With the Blockchain there will be no more corruption in the medical or pharmaceutical industries.
However technology grows corruption will always be a part of the system. We cannot completely eliminate corruption in all sectors. The currently popular Blockchain technology helps for a better service and satisfaction to the customer in all manner.
blockchain can be used for good or bad. its all about who can profit and the motives of use
Blockchain will become the next big health care technology innovation as it relates to payments and payer contracts.For example, when a health plan and a patient are dealing in contract, blockchain can automatically verify and authorize the information.With transparency and automation, greater efficiencies will lead to lower administration costs,faster claims and less money wasted.By adopting blockchain technology,organisations can eliminate the middleman and access patient data base on a large population scale.

less middle men doesnt = less cost to customer. it can just lead to bigger house, shinnier car for health plan company CEO

but isn't this some kind of a flawed thing to do?
i mean one of the things about blockchain is that it is public which means anyone can have access to all the medical records of all patients which is a violation of privacy unless the data is also encrypted, then i don't get what the point of blockchain in the middle of all this is!

decentralised yes. public no.. think medical private INTRAnet , not public INTERnet
also the data does not need to be 'cleartext' it can be encrypted. where by if Dr X has authority he can decrypt the data.
if nurse working at the co-signed hospital as access she can decrypt.. using the hospitals node to decrypt it on her behalf.
then the hospital can 'sell' that data because they have the encryption key to translate it to cleartext.. for the highest bidder
also you have to be able to delete records for example after someone is dead. there is no point in keeping it. how are they going to do that?!
same way gmaxwell is playing with "pruned" data and mimble wimble to move data to prune it right down.
I think it has been a remarkable progress. With the presence of blockchain in the medical industry will further encourage people to know bitcoin. Because we know own blockchain is closely related to bitcoin. And with blockchain technology transparency will be one of its parts. Nice work guys. Thank you
That would be nice, also this could really change the data sharing of hospital and people in the medical field. It would be easier to search whether anybody has an illness. Though the problem I see here is about privacy. If everybody can check everyone's medical record that would not be ideal as some illness must remain secret.
Blockchain Technology can be applied to Medical Industry as well and not only to digital or cryptocurrencies.
yep
instead of
[txid:0a1b3c, in[19z8y7x value:0.1], out:[15g4h3k value:0.1] signed:987zyx]
it could be
[medical record:12345, patient[SSN case:123] test[heart diease result:positive] signed:Dr. co-signed:hospital]
or ANY data at all. it does not have to be in the format we recognise as a 'transaction'

They just want to get rid of middle men so the big pockets in the elite can raise their wages. They will keep automatizing everything and they will keep firing people to make more money.
Maybe the customer gets a faster service tho since there will not be queue of data to process.

UK health service has fired lots of staff.. automated processes, etc. to attempt to get waiting times down. but our health service is getting worse not better.
the money saved is not going to pay for better patient care. but instead private business for profit.

yes the possibilities are immense and a huge array of use cases. but the real question is.. unless you are part of the banker/corporate elite. citizens will see more disadvantages than advantages of allowing so much closed door data movement.

Blockchain Technology can be applied to Medical Industry as well and not only to digital or cryptocurrencies. Blockchain Technology can be used as a ledger to store important datas pertaining to almost everthing in the medical industry. The datas with the use of the same technology can be programmed so as it can be accessed by other sectors of the society, it is much better if the medical industry will use blockchain technology as a distributed ledger for everyone to have access.

The courtroom.
Lots of electronic evidence gets submitted to courtrooms every day, yet the veracity of the evidence is questionable when one considers the modern tools that can be used to manipulate digital evidence.

More mainstream news aboit the blockchain. These folks at Wired see solid usability in the medical industry. Just the beginning friends, there are so many good business uses for the blockchain. I wish i voild buy ownership in it!
Where do you see the blockchain makinh an impact?
