It is possible or not depends totally on whether the government policies and laws accept it as a payment or not. But if it really is one day, we may get our salary, savings, school fees,... in the form of btc
It is definitely possible that not only the medical industry but also the other industries will adopt crypto. However, instead of going with Bitcoin I think these industries will come up with its own coin, for example, if we are dealing with the bills of the medical industry then we might have something called medicoin to pay the bills across the globe. I am expecting such industry wise coins in the coming years.
Is it possible someday that Medical Hospitals accept BTC as a payment for Hospital bills and other fees??
Someday when bitcoin's fee cheaper and faster, right now it's kind of impossible for the bitcoin to be accepted in Hospital due to the higher fee and long confirmation. However they may use another coin to address this problem there are so many altcoins out there which faster and cheaper and it's really good for transacting. on the other hand there are some project in medical fields that people working on.
Utilising bitcoin in medical industry will bring convenience on both parties, patient to medical institution or medical firm, vice versa. If some online store made it to accept bitcoin as payment, similar to fastfood chain such as KFC in Canada, it is not impossible that a hospital or clinic can do it as well.
We have to work an btc are medical industry itself crypto currency are involved to medical system of profitable share to btc.we should be Blockchain enterprise provider is constructing a distributed network for global healthcare.The firm announced the project with the launch of its initiative Gem Health, which uses a digital ledger protocol to optimize medical data management.The initiative wants to create new and open standards within this field and revolutionize the medical management industry.
yes definitely,there is no wonder,if any hospital accept bitcoin for their payment. If JAPAN gov paid the the salary in bitcoin,then I think,in JAPAN there will be soon that every store and hospital can accept BITCOIN.

it might happen if bitcoin is legal. but unfortunately, only certain companies receive bitcoin as a means of payment. There may come a time when that can happen but i don't think its anytime soon. Cryptocurrencies has the potential to be used in pretty much every transaction including medical transactions. There may even be coins dedicated for it in the future. But with btc heavily volatile, i think our generation won't be the one to see this happen yet
Even if the prices are volatile, this can still be used. Medical costs are very high and thus volatility of 5-10% will not make a lot of difference. For instance, suppose a bank creates a wallet for this and tells patients to pay bills above $500 or above in that wallet. At the end of the day bank can withdraw all the accumulated money in bank. On some days there will be decrease in price but for majority of time there will be increase. Thus the banks will get benefited by this system only. They can always go back to cash payment system if there is any problem.
Maybe its possible but if ever happen private hospitals will be the first accepting bitcoin as payments than public hospitals. But its not prepared to the poor people/patient to pay bitcoin as payments for their hospitalization specially to the people living in some provinces where the people cannot access in crypto industry because of insufficient knowledge about the new technology around online industry.
it is very possible, if a country has legalized bitcoin and recommends to transact using bitcoin. when the state has received bitcoin it will be many companies who prefer bitcoin as payment and salary for employees
Why not? I mean it's great if we can pay our fees using Bitcoin since in the Medical Industry the price is high but I think that this will take some time because as of now many Countries, Industries don't want Bitcoin as a term of payment because the price is volatile and it's not constant but who we are to judge Bitcoin, Bitcoin already perform many wonderful and amazing things and rise through adversities.

Why not? Bitcoin is currency for the people. In fact, i've seen some ICOs around that focuses on the medical industry which i think a very good idea of bringing this field into the blockchain. Briefly speaking, medical industries goe blockchain is not new already.
already some schools are using BTC payment system, lawyers are accepting Bitcoin allover USA and Bitcoin Prepared Cards are also available - hospitals would start accepting Bitcoins, too, may be soon.
i think it will take so long time until it can be happen to pay hospital bills. It's a government sphere almost. but now we see that some stores try to include such type of payment. maybe someday private paid clinics will be able to make this type of payment
Is it possible someday that Medical Hospitals accept BTC as a payment for Hospital bills and other fees??
This is very likely to happen, and this is what all bitcoin users expect, including me. Because everyone will experience sick and want the ease of payment in the hospital.
There may come a time when that can happen but i don't think its anytime soon. Cryptocurrencies has the potential to be used in pretty much every transaction including medical transactions.

Hospital bills these days are huge in my country. They can of course take payment in btc. It will be actually good as taking out so much cash from bank and then carrying it to the hospital is not safe.
There are no real reasons which separate the use of Bitcoin in the medical industry, compared to other industries. Hospitals would invariably use a payment processor to convert bitcoins to fiat, because most of their expenses will be in fiat. The only reason I can think of is for medical tourism, where foreigners do not have to pay a forex surcharge apart from bank fees, to pay their bills. In the case of Bitcoin, it is just the payment processor fees.
Yes why not because bitcoin serves as mode of payment in business industry so there's a big possibilities to be used in medical industry too and also in other business fields. But the thing here is maybe it will happen if bitcoin will be going to be so famous and it is being utilized all over the world but it should be on the choices of money and bitcoin for the reason that maybe there's still other people who will not going to use it.
it might be, and if anything it would be a new way of paying the hospital
but certainly only for, hospitals in countries that receive bitcoin only
because as we know, many countries do not accept the presence of bitcoin because it is considered a scam or a threat
