This won't happen anytime soon because Bitcoin is kind of brand new to medical organization like hospital. I guess that Blockchain and Bitcoin is known more by big hospital. As for small and local hospitals, Bitcoin is of little known. Another reason is Bitcoin is cracked down recently by many governments, meaning that it's kind of illegal to use Bitcoin in those countries.

On the condition that the country allow it to be a legal tender or not. If the government outlaws Bitcoin, then Bitcoin will be never used, not only hospitals, but also every industry.  I don't now how it is in your country, but in my country, the possibility that the hospital doesn't hear much of Bitcoin is high. I mean it takes time for everyone to get used to Bitcoin. Now is still early.

Now the Blockchain technology has been used in a very great way and manner in such a way that many industries are using it. The health industry will surely see more of it.

The blockchain technology is taking over all aspects of our human life very soon the medical sector will be covered with the wave of this modern technology and bitcoin and other altcoin will be use to facilitate medical transactions, with the latest development in the cryptocurrency network any medical institution can develope it own utility token and subject they client to use it as payments for the services they offer.

It is very possible  in the near future as the blockchain is taking over all human en devour. Blockchain is already in medical industries as it has been deployed in Docademic project which is medical project and PTOY which has to do with management of patient's file and admission processes. Accepting bitcoin or other altcoin for payment will not be much of an issue. Blockchain has been involved in election and it was a huge success taking the last Russian election as an example. Based on this i believe other countries will during their next election introduce blcokchain for effective electoral process. The next time we will have the first hospital that experiment with crypto and make a success out of it , will the remaining ones join the fray.

I think that is not very important, because when in hospital, or want to buy medicine there, paying in cash is also more effective. bitcoin will be more effective if used as an online transaction, such as ordering taxi online, online food, or other online items.
Yes, I agree with you, Bitcoin can be used as a currency like Fiat, but if I pay for a hospital, I don't think it is necessary to use a digital currency, it might be difficult. but bitcoin is more suitable to use for online transactions as you say, namely as a payment for online taxis and others.

Is it possible someday that Medical Hospitals accept BTC as a payment for Hospital bills and other fees??


of course that could happen. I think the future of bitcoin will always be wide open until the next few decades, of course there will be many innovations that involve bitcoin as a payment instrument in the real world, maybe one of them in medical terms. but not for the near future

I think it is possible if the government and financial services embrace the use of cryptocurrency. But it will take some time before it happen because until now the government and central banks are still suppressing cryptocurrency.

all possibilities can happen because we know bitcoin if it's been legalized as a whole in all countries then bitcoin will become a global currency that can be used for all countries and all infrastructure

Anything's possible, so ya.
It possible most especially in those countries that has accept crypto fully bitcoin can be used not only to pay hospital/medical bills but for other important transactions. I believed as cryptocurrencies get more popular other firms will have no choice than to accept bitcoin for easy access round the grobe.

It is really possible, when all of people already know and accept bitcoin as a currency, then anything which related to payment will be happened. Including in medical industry. Maybe the salary of the docter and also the ners will be paid with bitcoin too. So, when using bitcoin is easier, then it would be happened.

I think it might be possible if the government had considered the legal access to bitcoin. so that its existence can be used in various transactions.

I think BTC is very effective and useful payment gateway for medical industry. I heard something from few news source BTC is accepted in medical now i forgot this country name. Although now Uber will be accepted in BTC payment in Argentina i think new year it will be granted. Other many logistic company accept Bitcoin.

This will be a new stage about the journey of Bitcoin to come forward and see the benefits of Bitcoin from any country. Let's see what happens with next year.

Yes it is very possible. I understand that there are also some projects right now that will use the blockchain technology for not just payment but the whole billing system for medical purposes.

I think this is a positive approach because this will eliminate the red tape and the middlemen on some transactions regarding healthcare. This will also reduce the expenses the patient is going to shoulder.

it may happen, if the legality of the BTC already exists, whatever the field is, it can certainly use BTC as a transaction tool, but maybe the price stability of BTC is an important consideration to take this decision, this is too risky, I am quite pessimistic because in my country let alone pay btc with social security or collateral programs are now in turmoil, the profits are getting depreciated to millions of dollars, the result is that medical services have become chaotic, it seems that using btc needs mental improvement from its users and improvement of human resources from its implementers

in my opinion, it is legitimate if the government regulation has begun to allow BTC as a legitimate means of exchanging money, because it is not difficult to pay for hospital or other medical places with BTC. and is expected to make it easier for us as consumers
