I think thats a great idea to generate a blockchain-based medical documentary system. But there is a thing I'm concerned about. How would it interract with the current medical data system during the development, when some data will already be stored in a blockchain while tons of medical data in different hospitals and medical offices all over the US will remain being simple files in simple operating systems? I think it might create privacy failures and physician-to-physician data redirection gap.
What your describing is exactly the problem Patientory was created to solve.
First, we're much more than your traditional patient database. Yes, Patientory is a blockchain-based distributed electronic medical record storage computing platform. Think of us a network/bridge that connects with siloed, centralized EMR systems (e.g., Cerner, EPIC, Allscripts, Meditech)
The biggest advantage for doctors and healthcare organizations is the employment of blockchain to help the healthcare ecosystem mitigate damaging data breaches. EHRs are vulnerable to hacks. By it's very decentralized nature, blockchain isn't. It's a more secure, permanent record of online information exchange and can't be hacked.
This isn't just idle conjecture or marketing puffery, either. WannaCry was proof of that. Cyber attacks like it are projected to cost hospitals $305 billion by 2021.
Doctors (and their healthcare organizations) use Patientory to get the patients complete and up-to-date medical history. They use PTOY tokens to secure private health information, rent computing power, servers and data centers. In addition, smart contracts can be executed in relation to the patient care payment cycle.
One more thing ... It's not just the medical providers who will benefit. The Patientory app will allow patients to create an individual profile. On this profile, they will be able to store their medical information on a secure, HIPAA-compliant blockchain platform. Then they can connect with care providers as well as other patients who have similar health issues or concerns. Any patient (or doctor) who has had to juggle a care team of multiple doctors and specialists spread inside and outside different hospitals and offices will know how huge of a benefit this is.

Yeah, sure you'll make it!!! And in my opinion development should be quite fast-spreading in order to generate a decentralized system with easy-to-go access for physicians in any place. And actually this project needs some people to rewrite already existing data into a blockchain...
