I am a person working in the health sector. I am looking forward to one day co-bitcoin be used to pay for medical examination and treatment and health care services.
i don't think it will come true because bitcoin is unstable and decentralised. And it is also a good idea to use bitcoin in medical billing

I think this is only a matter of access, why in the medical world can not make payments with coins
I don't think it's as sophisticated as many don't know about bitcoin.

Because Bitcoin price unstable also price going to up or down in my then maybe medical billing can't accept yet.in just my opinion but maybe some countries can be accepted when Bitcoin legal this country's.

there are so many altcoins on the market, but why do you ask about bitcoin?
You also have to be able to think about the risks that might occur if bitcoin is adopted as a payment instrument in a hospital or clinic without any agency that regulates Bitcoin itself
especially volatility which will certainly harm one of the parties involved in the transaction process

It is the same reason to other platforms that don't accept Bitcoin as a payment method, because of it's volatility, the transaction fee and the transaction time. I am saying that it is the same since all the transactions using Bitcoin usually include these.

Some hospitals might be accepting Bitcoin but with these disadvantages than other payments methods, I guess patients will be really using the usual payment methods than sticking on Bitcoin. I know that a lot of people want to push Bitcoin as a crypto used in payments but with it's volatility, I don't think it will be that effective and great idea unless that individual knows well what Bitcoin is.

I don't think that making bitcoin as a way of billing in medical stuffs will be that easy because firstly not all people accepts it. Second, it would shookt everyone if it happened. Third, the government didn't even introduced BTC as a currency so why use it for billing. But, aside from those reasons I think it is possible if people make it works.

I think btc has not been used to pay for hospital bills because its popularity is not really wide enough for people to think about it but in the future we can see it if btc is It is so powerful that everyone trusts and uses it as a currency

In the future we will see that, it takes a long time to make it come true because btc is not yet known, accepted for economic transactions so it can be used. To pay for medical services, I think it will be a long time to come true

In my opinion, bitcoin is not ready to be used in medical billing because it is still in process.

Bitcoin has already covered many areas of people's lives, and they cover them further. I'm sure soon with bitcoin, and not only bitcoin can be calculated in different institutions, thus acquiring their services. I really believe this

I am also a healthcare professional, I like to see also the involvement of crypto market in health care sector. I support this kind of involvement of technology to health. I was actually waiting for such idea but all we can do is wait until the government settle things out.For now  Bitcoin cannot be use as a medical payments because not all the people are aware to its existence and also because of its market volatility. May be in future it will be that what we are looking for.

not all people know about bitcoin, and most poor people that need hospital. when they got desiasse they will choice to hospital to check it up, not try to take rest or something else. but that is good if some hospital accept payment in cryptocurrent. so, member can pay via crypto

Technically you can use Bitcoin to pay for almost anything by using a BTC to Fiat debit card, however not every country currently has these, though they are being rolled out into new countries seemingly quite regularly. Rather than having an OTC solution for Bitcoin, things like BTC debit cards should smooth the path in future.

Well, I think the health sector was not yet prepared or aware to accept Bitcoin in their industry. Bitcoin still gradually moving from investment. Maybe if they implement to used Bitcoin in medical fees and other health care services it could be convenient but as now, bitcoin is not yet used in many mode of payment and in a few country only using it in payment method.

What benefits will payment for medical services in bitcoin bring to you?This may happen but not before the next century.The use of blockchain technology in medicine will bring significant benefits.But paying with bitcoins is something unreal.

I think this sector has not enter to accept bitcoin due to the high volatility of bitcoin price as those health sector can't accept that fast changes of price. Maybe in the future another coin or token will enter the health sector to focus on this matter as this will need a more stable currency.

this question you should ask your leader, why not involve crypto as a transaction tool. but there are many ico that have involved health innovations such as medical and so on. I am not sure if it will work and until now the project has not run smoothly. maybe it takes more than a decade for many innovations to involve bitcoin.

Medical services here in our place already provided by our government. But in private medical services don't think that they will accept bitcoin as their billing payment because it is not widely acceptable in all communities.

I think the form of payments will change over time because our technology also advances and we have now bitcoin, our digital cash. But only time can tell when will that happen, where we can use bitcoin to pay hospital bills, to purchase our basic utilities to pay taxes in bitcoin. I look forward for it to happen in my country where I live.
