The last time I visited a friend of mine in the hospital, I was very devastated. The friend of mine was suffering from stage four cancer, a chronic illness that is taking away so many lives, young and old. The majority of the time that we went to enquire about his progress from the doctors, there was some setback that required him to remain under observation for a longer time.

Challenges facing the healthcare sector.

This is when it hit me that doctors in developing countries do not have the required knowledge to deal with all kinds of medical conditions. This is understandable because there is no way a human being is expected to know everything in the vast medical space, but most people fail to acknowledge this fact. Most of the doctors in developing countries are students who started practicing right after attaining their degrees from the university. These doctors face their patients who have various medical conditions, and it is not expected of them to provide the patients with the most advanced medical care.

Looking further into this issue, I concluded that the situation is similar in other scenarios too. Take a look at a family doctor who basically acts as the gatekeeper of medical care and can barely even provide standard treatment.Family doctors are unlike specialists who work in major hospitals or university hospitals because they have to treat their patients as general practitioners, an activity that demands extensively broad knowledge in a wide variety of medications all on their own.

Pharmacists are not excluded from this challenge either, and they are professionals who specialize in distributing medicines, as we all know. These individuals are always struggling to maintain their knowledge of the ingredients and mechanisms of all medicines because healthcare is generally very vast. Pharmacists have the responsibility to specify each patient’s disease based only on a prescription, which is extremely challenging. This means that pharmacists are expected to familiarise themselves with knowledge that spans widely not forgetting they have to take care and avoid issuing medicine that could potentially cause adverse reactions to patients.

The ASCLEPIUS Network solution.

No medical professional can acquire their expertise overnight because each patient has different medical conditions and history. I am glad to introduce you to a platform that is potentially going to solve all of the challenges mentioned above. ASCLEPIUS Network is a platform which is aiming at incorporating blockchain technology and encryption to accumulate all the medical expertise and knowledge and make it available to every person on earth.

With a platform that will be so rich in medical knowledge and expertise, medical professionals are going to have access to such a wide range of information that offering advanced and accurate medical care is going to be possible globally. Medical professionals will be able to match their expertise with the most updated diagnostic and pharmaceutical information base which is going to ensure that each professional gets the relevant information.

CONCLUSION.

ASCLEPIUS Network is going to be the future of the healthcare sector globally with its incorporation of state-of-the-art technology and a team of highly competent professionals in the information technology field.
