Abstract: |
EMRChains is a next-generation Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system that leverages blockchain
technology to improve the security, efficiency & accuracy of patient data management. Our aim is to
connect all hospitals under one system on the concept of a "Single Patient Identifier", enabling better data exchange & reducing the risk of medical errors. |
What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ? |
Organizing multiple and fragmented health records about patients, and that medical information is siloed and
healthcare is one of the top targets for cyberattacks globally in recent trends that need to be paid attention to. https://www.weforum.org/reports/global-risks-report-2022/ |
Who needs it ? How many would benefit ? |
Electronic Health Records are being heavily promoted by federal and state governments, insurance
companies and large medical institutions as a system to help physicians and office staff better care for
patients before, during and after healthcare encounters.
|
How will the solution works |
An interoperable healthcare data system that is both validated and secured. By designing a healthcare data ecosystem as a platform on the blockchain around patient information. Every interaction within the world of medicine can be documented & neatly organized in one place secure on the blockchain owned by the patient. Through blockchain we're changing how medical records are accessed and utilized by everyone, creating a smart healthcare ecosystem. |
Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different |
In Pakistan yet there are so many EMR system providers, but there is no one working on a similar concept for now. But yes if we look into the international Market there are so many notable mature products i.e, Patientory, medibloc. |
