RE: Solving Real World Problems – Improving The Quality of Life The Decentralized Way

in #healthcare7 years ago

Thanks for a thought-provoking article. I'll look for more background on the Patientory journey, for instance. You asked about the health care system in our countries - we live in South Africa and our country's system is in deep jeopardy with a government looking to fully centralise it while at the same time not providing close to the level of service that people in the 21st century deserve. Private sector solutions from health care insurance to private hospitals have moved into the breach to create a highly imbalanced system where those who can afford it (and I'm deeply thankful we're among them) get world class care. South Africa could be an interesting test bed for blockchain based solutions for healthcare to even out those imbalances without destroying the high quality of care delivered through the private sector.
