Health delivery solution in emerging economy with blockchain non bias solution through for profit or NGO & sustainability
In emerging economies, health delivery solutions can face various challenges such as inadequate funding, limited resources, lack of skilled workforce, and inefficient record-keeping systems. These challenges can lead to poor health outcomes, including high mortality rates, and low life expectancy. However, the use of blockchain technology can provide a non-biased solution for addressing these challenges and ensuring sustainability in health delivery solutions in emerging economies.
One example of a health delivery solution that utilizes blockchain technology is MedCredits. This platform uses a decentralized blockchain-based network to connect patients with doctors for medical consultations. Patients can access medical care remotely, and doctors can offer their services without the need for physical infrastructure. By using a blockchain-based system, the platform ensures that all patient data is secure and cannot be tampered with by any third party, ensuring data privacy and reducing the risk of fraud.
Another example of a health delivery solution that utilizes blockchain technology is the Health Nexus platform. This platform is designed to enable health practitioners to securely store and share patient data in real-time. The platform uses a permission-based blockchain network that allows for secure, transparent, and efficient sharing of medical data between healthcare providers, patients, and researchers. This solution addresses the challenge of inefficient record-keeping systems and improves patient outcomes by enabling healthcare providers to make data-driven decisions.
Sustainability
In terms of sustainability, blockchain-based health delivery solutions can be implemented by for-profit companies or non-governmental organizations (NGOs). For-profit companies can leverage blockchain technology to create new revenue streams and offer innovative solutions to patients in emerging economies. NGOs, on the other hand, can utilize blockchain technology to create sustainable health delivery solutions that are accessible to vulnerable communities in emerging economies.
NGO Model: MediLedger
MediLedger is a non-profit organization that is focused on improving the efficiency and transparency of the pharmaceutical supply chain. The organization uses blockchain to create a decentralized ledger that tracks the movement of drugs from the manufacturer to the end user. This helps to reduce the risk of counterfeit drugs entering the supply chain, which is a major problem in many emerging economies. By improving the transparency of the supply chain, MediLedger helps to ensure that patients receive safe and effective medications.
For-Profit Model: MedRec
MedRec is a blockchain-based electronic medical record (EMR) system that is designed to improve the efficiency and security of healthcare delivery. The system is designed to be used by healthcare providers and patients, and it enables providers to access patients' medical records securely and in real-time. The system uses blockchain to create a tamper-proof record of all transactions, which helps to prevent data breaches and fraud. MedRec has the potential to be an effective solution in emerging economies where there is a lack of electronic medical record systems.
In conclusion, blockchain technology provides a non-biased solution for addressing the challenges faced by health delivery solutions in emerging economies. The use of blockchain-based platforms ensures data privacy, reduces the risk of fraud, and improves patient outcomes. Both for-profit and NGO models can be used to create sustainable solutions that benefit patients and providers alike.
These solutions can help to improve the quality of care that patients receive and reduce the burden on healthcare systems in emerging economies. Also, these solutions can be implemented by for-profit companies or NGOs, ensuring sustainability and access to health care for all.
