So with blockchain technology growing and adoption coming quickly, we are obviously going to see large industries like healthcare, banking, and law enforcement begin to utilize the strengths of blockchain.

Curious your thoughts on how blockchain could benefit the healthcare industry and why.

A great use case that I can think of right of the bat, is protection of patient data, making it immutable once stored.
What you said is already existing because of many ICOs related to healthcare. Blockchain can also help in the quick process of finding the most suitable doctors for a patient. Lastly, medical prescription data can also be placed on the blockchain so that it will be more efficient because you wont need to go to a hospital.
