Case Studies On Blockchain Technology Applications In Healthcare Training Ppt

Slide 1

This slide illustrates the use case of supply chain transparency using blockchain technology. It explains that using blockchain in supply chain helps to track the entire manufacturing and supply process through a blockchain-based supply chain transparency system. 

Instructor’s Notes:

The key benefits of transparency using blockchain in supply chain are as follows:

Customer confidence: 

Compliance:

• By using blockchain-based software, medical device manufacturers and pharmaceuticals can easily ensure patient safety, helping streamline compliance
• It provides automated law enforcement notifications if an alarm is raised over a process or an issue

Supply chain optimization:

Slide 2

This slide illustrates the use case of patient centric electronic health records by using blockchain technology. It explains that the potential solution is to create a blockchain-based system for medical records that can be linked with the existing electronic medical record software.

Instructor’s Notes:

The key benefits of using blockchain in patient-centric electronic health records are as follows:

Complete Transparency:

• A single medical record source develops trust among patients and enables them to see their records every time they are updated
• Patients can give permission to other healthcare personnel to examine their records and can set time limits on how long a third party can check the data

Fast Validation:

• Insurers can receive immediate validation of healthcare services directly from patients
• Direct validation helps to save time and cost due to the elimination of any intermediary

Slide 3

This slide illustrates the use of smart contracts for insurance and supply chain settlements using blockchain technology. It explains that different companies provide blockchain based systems to healthcare segments such as pharma companies, medical device OEMs, Wholesalers, insurers and healthcare providers. It also highlights that using a smart contract between manufacturers, distributors, and healthcare organizations can significantly reduce disputes over payment, chargeback claims over medicines and other goods. 

Slide 4

This slide highlights the medical staff credential verification process by using blockchain technology. It explains that healthcare based systems can be used for verifying the credentials of medical staff. Blockchain based solutions can be used to track the experiences of medical professionals.

Instructor’s Notes:

The key benefits of using blockchain in medical staff credential verification process are as follows:

• Faster Credentialing Process: Blockchain provides fast credentialing during the hiring process for healthcare organizations
• Credential Monetization: Blockchain helps to provide an opportunity for healthcare institutes, insurers, and healthcare providers to monetize the credential data of past and existing staff members
• Transparency and Reassurance: Blockchain helps deliver information to patients on experience of the medical staff who will tend to them.This allows patients to filter out the options regarding healthcare treatment

Slide 5

This slide illustrates the use case of Estonia for using blockchain technology for healthcare system. It highlights that in 2016 Estonia became the first country to fully digitize the health records, up to 99%, with the use of a blockchain-based system. It also explains the need to transform the healthcare system into digital healthcare system with the use of blockchain technology.

Slide 6

This slide illustrates the different applications of blockchain technology in Estonian healthcare system which states that the healthcare professionals will have access to all their patients' information and are allocated the required time to deal with each patient. It also explains the different challenges of blockchain in Estonian healthcare system such as safety issue, management issue, and transferring the data issue.
