Medibloc. The most advanced technology for the health system.
The Blockchain
Throughout the last decade, the Blockchain has completely revolutionized the technological world due to its ability to be coupled to various industries, areas and disciplines, with Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general being the best known uses for this technology. For its understanding the Blockchain is the technology in which thousands of computers (also called nodes), keep identical copies of information (known as ledgers), instead of storing all the information in a single system.
In this way, the information is interconnected through multiple nodes, so that when any part is modified, a new set of information (block) appears. In turn, this new block must be validated and interconnected to previous blocks. Thus, altering the information would be impossible without having created a new record or block, so any unauthorized change would create new blocks instead of eliminating those that already existed. In this way, manipulating the original information would be virtually impossible.
The Blockchain in the health sector
In addition to the well-known use of Blockchain technology for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, hundreds of fields of application can take advantage of their transparency and security. In this sense, the Health Sector could benefit greatly from its adoption.
The health industry manages a wide range of information to carry out real-time analysis, using meticulous security measures when transferring information between different entities and institutions. In this sense and in view of the precautions that must be taken for the transmission of sensitive information, the Blockchain would be the most efficient way to distribute the data among all the entities involved.
Example: A person who must move to another country to undergo some surgery, must take all his medical record to hand and many times the data of these medical records are lost or mistreated along the way. Some of the benefits of the use of Blockchain in the health sector are mainly reflected in the way information is digitalized and accessible anywhere in the world, the patient has the full right to use and personally handle their medical record.
The Blockchain in medical security
One of the advantages of the Blockchain technology is that it facilitates direct communication between medical personnel, treatment providers and other specialized health institutions that manage the care of the same patient, guaranteeing privacy of security and reliability in the interoperability of the data. . The chain of blocks will be of great help for medical researchers because it guarantees the immutability of the key information in the construction of a database with a safe and responsible global reach. Patients can also benefit because they can obtain income by providing their data for the development of science.
Example: A medical student who requires information to carry out their research, can make use of the technology and obtain the patient's data, benefiting both the student and the patient in this case.
What is MediBloc?
It is a medical data platform that is developing its own chain of blocks putting medical data in the hands of patients who are in control. The MediBloc platform also allows patients to share that data with the relevant parties.
MediBloc creates an access level category in such a way that it makes it easier for relatives of the nearest patient to make decisions on behalf of the owner in case of emergency, so that health professionals may access the data.
Through MediBloc, patients can go to any health center and the authorized physician can give them full access to their records, which simplifies the medical process and ensures that they have all the necessary information to maximize the care they can provide the patient.
What is MED and how is it used?
Through the MediBloc users can pay doctors every time the records of these are updated with new data, or even sell information on different diseases to researchers without adhering to laws that prohibit it because medical records will be the exclusive property of patients to do with him what he needs.
Its current assets have a value of 643,984,190 $ (US dollars). According to experts in the economy of cryptocurrencies, MED rises in the value of its shares little by little, definitively settling it in the top 100 of the most valuable cryptocurrencies in the world.
Obstacles to the use of Blockchain technology in the health sector
Health systems are very traditional in the management of their operations, so it is not a simple task for an emerging technology to become so easily part of its operation. The integration of what its processes suppose with a totally different platform, deserves a drastic change to which they must adapt progressively.
On the other hand, in the presence of a huge number of smaller or larger institutions and other types of service centers, the evolution to blockchain technology would not be an economic procedure taking into account the large differences in operability and all the resources that would suppose the adoption.
Similarly, another obstacle in the introduction of this technology that could be manifested, are some legislations that govern the health of each country. However, because of the improvements it can bring and its ability to adapt, it may not represent as significant an obstacle as the ones mentioned above.
Final considerations
The Blockchain technology can be adapted to all sectors and work areas, besides opening the doors to new fields of application in the future, considering its capacity to reduce costs and simplify all operations. The blockchain technology is evolving little by little in different industries and although it is probable that it does not address the health area as quickly as in other subjects, it is certain that the benefits that it will provide will greatly improve the services provided.
