Lattice Healthcare Solution

When patients grant health professionals access to specific health credentials, this data is stored only once. Thus health professionals can rely on the most up-to-date and accurate records of patient care. Blockchain provides a way to ensure that data is complete, up-to-date, and secure.

Healthcare processes can be made more efficient by digitization and automation, lowering costs and reducing the risk of human errors.

Blockchains can be used to analyze real-time health data, which allows health experts to spot epidemics (and other public health problems) as and before they happen to respond accordingly. This accurate data could then be fed into artificial intelligence systems that could elevate medical research by leaps and bounds.

Blockchain can reduce patient data sharing risks by limiting what is accessible. For example, when personal information such as an ID card is provided by patients for identification, private data such as name, age and home address is publicly shared. Digital signatures and verifiable credentials let patients pass verification with only sets of required information provided in a digital environment. This is known as zero-knowledge proof which allows individuals to be verified without revealing the sensitive information itself. Health experts can use zero-knowledge proofs to aggregate fully anonymous data and then be able to analyze it without compromising anyone's privacy.

Blockchains create a secure, easily-shared database that can be used to store medical records - with all personal information kept private.
