Another blockchain healthcare attempt that makes little sense.

The payment system won't work with insurance.  It's a separate process that isn't mentioned here.   


The whole idea is predicated on every healthcare entity adopting the same blockchain.  Otherwise it's just another different system.


Hospitals have their own servers and utilize various programs.   I have no issue accessing pt. medical records, documenting, billing..etc.  All is done quickly and efficiently.   The issue occurs across hospital systems,  in which the medical records must be printed and manually entered into the next system.

I absolutely get how blockchain could help with that.  But again,  it's predicated on it being a universal adoption.  If that doesn't happen, then it's just another system, same as any other. 

 If someone could create a universal medical data system from which each program (regardless of the program used)  could access and modify -  it would be huge!          Think of it like the internet.     One group uses Firefox, another Chrome, another Brave (shout-out to BAT).    But each program allows folks to access the same thing.     This is desperately needed in healthcare.
