By Using Big Data and Blockchain Technology, Curaizon Introduces its Curaserve as a Solution to Improve Drug Adherence

The major issue with healthcare is that it is a heavily regulated industry in terms of privacy, and for good reason. Personal healthcare information, along with all of the other data therein (birthdates, social security numbers, payment data, etc.) should be some of the most highly protected information on the planet.
​Blockchain technology has the potential to transform healthcare, placing the patient at the center of the health care ecosystem and increasing the security, privacy, and interoperability of health data. This technology could provide a new model for health information exchanges by making electronic medical records more efficient, disinter-mediated, and secure. While it is not a panacea, this new, rapidly evolving field provides fertile ground for experimentation, investment, and proof-of-concept testing.​

Advantages of Using Blockchain Tochnology to the Healthcare

  • In health care, we talk about blockchain in terms of its ability to securely, privately and comprehensively track patient health records. Currently, a patient’s medical history is a puzzle with its pieces dispersed across multiple providers and organizations. One piece is held by your primary care doctor. Several pieces are held by every specialist you have visited throughout your life. Another set might be held by wearable or devices that track your health.
  • Blockchain could help us assemble all of these pieces in real-time and view the entire picture of a patient’s health, with the confidence of knowing it’s both comprehensive and up-to-date. With a blockchain-based standard, every change to a patient’s record would be verified, combined with other transactions and added as a block to a larger blockchain. As a result, providers can be sure that they have the complete historical picture of a patient’s medical history, how it has changed over time and who made these changes.

Healthcare & Big Data

Healthcare providers benefit from Big Data if they take a more holistic, patient-centered approach to value; one that focuses equally on health-care spending and treatment outcomes. This is made possible through the data and analytics of Curaizon’s data.

Benefits of Big Data to Healthcare Field

  1. Faster time to treatment
  2. Reduced hospitalizations and readmissions
  3. Improve doctor performance
  4. Risk stratification
  5. Improved medication therapy management

Doctor Smart will Combine Existing Healthcare Infrastructures in Many Countries

Healthcare in most countries is one of the most socially significant, and therefore most sensitive, sectors. It is both an important public and social institution and a huge commercial market.

The main drivers of healthcare market growth are aging populations, higher life expectancies and rising hospital treatment costs. All of this has led, and will continue to lead, to growth in the demand for high-quality and up-to-date ambulatory services.
Their development will both improve the availability and quality of treatment for patients and decrease public budget expenditures.

Doctor Smart Ecosystem

Doctor Smart is developing a comprehensive system of healthcare services that will enable customers from many countries to have consultations and receive care for various medical and healthrelated lifestyle issues in one-window mode both offline and online.
Doctor Smart will offer a variety of solutions in the sphere of telemedicine, including online video consultations with doctors and other healthcare specialists, integration with wearable medical devices, a support system for medical decisions, a blockchain-based rating system to evaluate medical specialists, AI medical solutions, and integration with many different ecosystems and databases that store medical information.

The problems

•) Cumbersome healthcare systems are unable to operate efficiently on a daily basis

In many countries, healthcare systems are made up of numerous huge and cumbersome institutions which provide poor experiences to end-users. The individual elements within those systems often interact poorly and pursue opposing goals. As a result, bureaucracy, wastefulness, and a mentality of ‘the system for its own sake’ have unfortunately become defining features of the global healthcare sector.

Doctors face a considerable administrative burden, having to fill out papers even during a basic 15-minute appointment, which limits their ability to help patients. For patients, this means meaningless queues at outpatient clinics and hospitals, long waiting times for ambulances, insufficient attention from doctors and medical facilities with low patient capacities.

•) Most health care providers focus on meeting minimum standards at the lowest possible cost, not on our health

Health insurance system was created by competent specialists with good intentions, but has since degraded. Insurance companies are incentivized to maximize profits at the expense of patients, which often means not paying out if an insured event occurs. To accomplish this, insurance companies draft policies in such a complicated manner that the average consumer is unable to understand the policy terms. Insurance policies contain plenty of provisions aimed at reducing payments to the insured, instead of providing efficient medical care

•) Throughout the World, the Healthcare Sector does not use the latest technology advances, thereby greatly limiting its capabilities

All over the World, most medical facilities do not use decision support systems. The absence of such systems and the rapid development of the pharmaceutical sector and new technological methods of treatment significantly increase the risk of medical errors and improper medical prescriptions.

•) Healthcare systems are not ready to work with prognostic scenarios of patient care and to monitor chronic diseases online

Modern healthcare systems are unable to aggregate information about each person’s health status and to distribute it efficiently within the system. Doctors do not have access to the huge amount of information that people accumulate about their health using mobile devices. However, this information could facilitate a significant reduction in the cost of monitoring chronic diseases, the number of medical errors and incorrect medication prescriptions.
