Blockchain in Healthcare: The Good the Bad and the Ugly.

Blockchain in Healthcare: A Session at Exponential Medicine explores the hype, the hope and the potential at Exponential Medicine 2019.
Mariya Filipova, VP of Innovation at Anthem, shares her own healthcare journey and challenges sharing her medical records, and discusses the potential for blockchain in healthcare to enable 'computational trust' for data stored in the blockchain to be shared, especially when the information is sensitive. For patient identity, patient consent, and how to keep provider database up to date.
Blockchain has tremendous opportunities to solve for systemic issues across healthcare ecosystem with blockchain.
The session includes insights from Ted Tanner with IBM Watson Health, Sonja O'Malley (Patient advocate at Cleveland Clinic), Addison McGuffin (Healthcare Services Corp), and Heather Flannery (CEO, Consensys Health Co-Chair, HIMSS Blockchain Task Force; Co-Founder & Chair, BiHG).

** I am a triple board certified surgeon x 30 yrs experience & tech entrepreneur in the medical space. I agree that blockchain tech has the potential to solve a myriad of medical coordination problems. However, please, please do many pilot studies & compile the best features of the different solutions before ramming these newest utopian solutions down the throats' of clinicians. Do you want a repeat of the first iteration of IT in medicine ie mandated EHR with no interoperability, vast frustration, enhanced burnout of clinicians, crushing implementation/maintenance costs, etc? Lastly, it's healthcare............ where the hell is the clinical representative on this panel? This is so typical- the arrogance of "administrative" executives. Please educate yourselves as to what care do they administer?? The bait and switch is that healthcare admin is a large part of the problem with endless approvals, hoops and delays for patients and an immense waste of time for clinicians.

Thanks for the comment. I almost kept studying healthcare admin in grad school until I realized how much of it is predicated on the force of government and rationalizing their importance as opposed to actual need/value determined by voluntary transaction. I understand that the speakers want to increase the win-win between various stakeholders with opposed incentives by "abstracting" away the data or information element, but I'm struggling with conceptualizing how this would happen with the copious and ever-growing government involvement (regulation/mandates). Healthcare isn't market driven, so I guess it's inevitable that people will keep trying to compensate for each of the flaws of a collectivized system that leads to poor allocation of resources, flaws accounted for by market driven prices... These companies aren't publicly traded as far as I know, they just have buy-in from already existing mega 3rd party corporatist institutions, and purely government programs, look them up (ConsenSys rebranded to Equideum Healthcare). I seriously believe if there were truly a need, there'd be a market, but so much of the capital allocation is the result of force from government. I know we have to be practical with what we have, but I still think there's a lot of truth in market freedom that hasn't had a fair chance to make an argument.

Very insightful

Adorei seu material. Agradeço pelo trabalho que você investe nesses vídeos! Eu tenho temas relacionados à saúde. Efetivamente, eu trabalho com telemedicina, oferecendo atendimento em todo o Brasil!!! Continue postando!!

[@MoonManO-sk4us]

actually no, a blockchain is trustless. This means that you don't need to trust anyone because you have absolute transparency to the point where if a happens then b will happen immediately.

[@whiskyguzzler982]

It means that you need to trust the implementation of your blockchain platform, not the partners who share your blockchain.

[@ferruccioanimali2009]

Thanks for this was getting so triggered by it😂😂

[@fixittony]

Who pays for the transition and ultimately the running costs? Patients? Employers? Government? What incentive does Epic or Cerner have to accommodate? If the implementation is like an EHR install than G-d help us all. Humans can’t even do that seamlessly.

[@ccmTopher34]

Very compelling and deeply appreciate the thought, but I still don't see use of force ending, thus making the fundamental hope for win-win transactions pollyannish.... "Systemic issues of having diametrically opposed incentives among so many different stakeholder groups... the real issue, the heart of the matter is how in fact we can restructure those incentives now that we have an infrastructure that makes that possible". Liberty is the only way, but there's far too much government regulation that has little chance of ever ending. We pay for others whether we like it or not.

[@SaurabhSharma-ov5hr]

I was thinking the same thing. Did you understand what does that part means ??

[@muskduh]

Thanks for the video

The double serpent symbol in the beginning of this video says it all. It is the anciient symbol for merchandising. The single serpent represents medicine. 🤗

leave ur hand up if you left more confused....all the hands went down!

[@dottoreb9120]

I cannot stand this woman lecturing me (the physician) about how she is going to "fix" the fragmentation in health care because of "silos" of information and BC is the answer. Anthem deserves her

[@legalfictionnaturalfact3969]

Dottore, you should have gone into computer science. Wait, let me guess. You think you are also a gentleman engineer.:-)

[@TheSillones]

Wait. Blockchain is not what a cloud service does?

[@saadb2670]

No

[@1billyjcraw]

A cloud service is centralized, blockchain is not. From a user perspective it may not be readily apparent.

[@TheSillones]

No systems are perfect. They always have a backdoor.

[@420savagemusic69]

theres is no BACKDOOR to a blockchain....not yet at least in 2021

[@Zeuts85]

Of course, but with blockchain the backdoor is such a pain in the arse to open, the risks of being caught so high, and the payoff so small, that nobody will bother. Security can never be perfect in principal, but it can be _practically_ perfect.

Thank you for your videos . I will truly advice traders especially' newbies to have orientation of trading before they get involved in it because the cyrpto market has been unstable, Forget predictions and start making a good profit now because future valuations are all speculations and guesses. when news gets bearish start buying. "Keep it simple" That correction was the best thing that happened me. but all thanks to *Marcus Chun* who taught me how to make trade and increased my Crypto from 3 to 11BTC now. No one really knows what is going to happen in the market and I know you are only saying what you think will happen based on the past. It is yours and my opinion so people should make their own Investment choices based on their own research.

my hunger for success and to become successful and all he said was “Say no more, just follow my lead”. It’s been an amazing 6months so far. I am blessed to have worked with Mr Marcus Chun
