|Blockchain Technology in the Health Sector
|-|

Some areas in the healthcare industry are well suited to the use of blockchain technology. There is a very high potential in these areas. These; health information transfers, health research collection in one place (integrity), personal health records, confidentiality (storage) of health information, health billing, health claims records and drug supply chain.

|Knowledge Transfers in the Field of Health
|-|
Keeping and storing patient information is one of the biggest challenges in the healthcare industry. Although third-party exchange of information is possible, it is specific to each organization, each company. Access of any health institution to the information in the other health institution can only be realized as a result of a permission. Even if it is allowed, this will cause quite a waste of time.

Blockchain technology has the potential to provide solutions for information transfer in the field of health. In terms of providing transparent and secure access to information, it provides great convenience in ensuring information exchange between patients and institutions.

Today, studies are carried out to take advantage of blockchain technology to facilitate patient information access and transfer information. There are Mayo Clinic, Healthcare Data Gateway, FHIRChain, Medrec, MedChain, Gem Health Network, MyPCR projects to produce solutions for health information transfers.

|Collecting Health Researches in One Place
|-|
Today, it is not possible to collect health data and studies related to health in a single center due to the laws and rules of the states and the conditions of health institutions. This problem creates problems in terms of progress and efficiency of studies related to health.

The unchangeable structure of the blockchain will facilitate the work of health institutions in this regard in terms of providing distributed ledger technology and information integrity. In this way, there will be no obstacle in front of researches related to health.

It has become easier today to conduct scientific studies by collecting patient data and information in a single center. While patients' health information is stored on the blockchain, this data is not shared with anyone. It is possible for certain people to access these data while health-related studies are being carried out.

With validated data from patients, researchers have the opportunity to more accurately and more efficiently examine the effects of any particular treatment on patients.

Companies in the pharmaceutical industry can produce special medicines for patients using the data of errors.

|Personal Health Records
|-|
There are projects created using blockchain technology on personal health records. By making use of the various features of the blockchain, personal health records are protected and controlled in a highly secure manner so that designated persons can access them. In this way, it will cause academic studies to progress more effectively and safely.

Patients have the opportunity to share their personal information with doctors. The fact that patients have the option to share their disease information with any doctor within their own control will further accelerate the progress in health.

There is a MedVault project developed on this subject. Patients use the QR code to access their own data on the blockchain. In addition, doctors also provide the opportunity to access the patient's health-related information by using data matrix.

|Privacy of Health Information
|-|
It is the most natural right of patients to want their health information to be kept confidential. In some countries, there are various laws regarding the protection of these rights, but malicious healthcare workers access and share disease information with various companies. In return, he gets financial gains. It is possible to prevent this through blockchain technology. With private blockchain projects and smart contracts, we can securely store health information on the blockchain.

|Billing and Payments
|-|
As in all sectors, there is a commercial relationship in the health sector as well. Invoicing and payments are not fulfilled from time to time and the receiving party suffers from this. With smart contracts this problem can be eliminated very easily. After the necessary conditions are met, the payment will be made automatically through smart contracts between the payer and the buyer.
