AzaadHealth is a global patient-owned health data exchange network built upon blockchain which will empower patients by democratizing health records, by pulling and combining health data from multiple disparate sources like healthcare providers, personal wellness devices and other sources.
This will solve the inter-operability problem among hospitals by allowing patients to share their health records with doctors and loved ones. It will allow patients to take an active role in their health by letting them update their health information.
Using blockchain will create an immutable transaction ledger which will in turn form a trusted network where every piece of data can be easily verified and audited. Blockchain will also bring the promise of Smart Contracts which will let patients share their health data with providers, payers and researchers."
