It will happen someday. There is no difference for medical companies to which currency to receive as they easily could convert it to fiat money in a short time with any exchange.

I think hospitals that are brave enough to take bitcoin as transactions must be privately owned and managed by themselves. Certainly, a doctor who jumped in the crypto world who did this.
Many medical industries will apply this to facilitate the search for medical devices or drugs. With online services, it is definitely easy to find and payment is also supported by bitcoin.

Yes, it is possible and as of today the best example is Hasbro Children Hospital in United States. There are only few hospitals yet that accept BTC as payment though. Its because BTC is not yet that popular on other areas and some areas banned BTC in the 1st place.

If bitcoin enters the medical industry, it will go a long way in circulation of the currency.

if this happens the hospital receives payment with bitcoin, of course this is very positive, if we are in a bad situation and have to pay quickly this is one good step. I am sure bitcoin will continue to grow

It is possible, provided that Bitcoin is legalized globally and Bitcoin's value is stable.

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

Why are we speaking specifically about the hospital itself. BTC is currency which can be used almost everywhere and in any industry available out there who accepts the payment against the products and services that they provide.

Hospital may accept it and it has got the same chance as apple and microsoft accepting it or lets say a street shop! Unless and until government doesnt approve the legal tenders for the bitcoin acceptance within the nation. This is the only concerning factor yet and it can get shoot up any time in the near future.

In hospitals, I do not think, but I think that in a couple of years we will all move from money to cryptocurrency and it will Eclipse any money.
For the next decade, maybe bitcoin can enter the health industry including hospitals. This will facilitate various parties such as patients and hospital managers, because blockchain technology is able to manage various aspects of life including patient health data. For bitcoin payments can be used directly or through a payment gateway
There are such projects that are working in healthcare dept ,I could find over the internet!
1)The MediLedger Project
Built to support the requirements of the U.S. Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), MediLedger also outlines steps to build an electronic, interoperable system to identify and trace certain prescription drugs, meaning it successfully met not just the law, but the operational needs of industry.
2) SimplyVital Health
The product, ConnectingCare brings providers together from different clinical organizations onto the same platform, where they can view the same data for shared patients. Financial and clinical algorithms powered by AI provide actionable strategic opportunities for all users.
3)Robomed Network
This particular breakthrough concept of focusing on patient outcomes is brand new to the healthcare market. In other words, Robomed Network is the first system where the patient pays for the result and not the medical process itself.

This isn't far to happen as we've seen icos that using blockchain to store data and avoid counterfeiting. So having bitcoin as payment in hospital is the thing we should look up to since we know how bitcoin revolutionize the payment system.

Just to add, Japan is now accepting bitcoin in their beauty clinics, since Bitflyer took a huge step.

Yes it is but isn't it a selfish way to live and have medications when this kind of payment system happens? What about those needy people who does not own a single satoshi when they medications for such an illness? It is revolutionary yet selfish idea to have. Look what japan did, they only approved for beauty products and beauty clinics to have bitcoin as payment method since that kind of stuff is for financial free people.

Of course Yes, but do not dream about it until the moment of a more loyal attitude of the state to this financial unit.

Certainly not in the near future I will.Will begin perhaps with plastic surgery) Some operations and drugs are worth very costly.When the rate rises, such payment will be very relevant.And of course for a start it will be private clinics.Also, one of the first may be the services of cosmetologists and specialists in beauty and health.

No, not even for the foreseeable future, I don't see that. If only commercial establishments.... we have all budget hospitals now under the control of the state)) they even have their own budget taken away.

if that country accepts for people to use bitcoin for payment purpose. I think this is possible. The hospital can use two forms of payment, traditional money and bitcoin, to meet the needs of the people and bring about the hospital profits.

This is possible, and more than. Blockchain technologies are very interesting for this kind of sectors of our lives because it will create increased confidentiality (and this is extremely important in the medical field), a reliable channel for data transmission, to get away from the system of direct money turnover and reduce the cost of taxes (for example).

I think only few of them will try it out in the future due to most of the hospitals I knew were under the hand of the government. Private hospitals are more open in the possibility of accepting bitcoin payments. Well, we can really know the future but I believe soon not only the hospitals institution will embracing the changes but also the other institutions.

From my opinion, someday btc is used not only to pay medical fee in the hospital, but to pay another simple things in the daily life.
If not btc, maybe some other altcoins with the fast blocktime and cheap transactions fee. Because cryptocurrency is a peer to peer currency,
it should be easy and fast to use.
