Here's how Project Healthureum Will Revolutionize Global Healthcare Standards in the Near Future

Healthureum is a multi-dimensional healthcare ecosystem that is developed to run on the already existing and successful Ethereum platform. The project aims to enable a flawless deployment of healthcare-related smart contracts backed up with a decentralized medical data management system.  We live on a planet where there is a glaring disparity between the kind of healthcare that the rich have access to and that which the poor people can barely afford. Never mind that one of Millenium Development Goals of the 21st century was to promote gender, economic, and racial equality - something that we have failed dramatically at.

Now, fast-forward and a few years after the unveiling of these Millennium Development Goals, we have a solid chance of making this elusive dream a reality. Are you wondering how? Through the implementation of the Project Healthureum. This is a venture that will revolutionize the global healthcare standards soon through the following ways.

Improving the Reliability of Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are the backbone of any thriving healthcare system - regardless of how large-scale or small scale it is.

Speaking of which, it does not end there. It is not enough just to carry out frivolous and random clinical trials at the drop of a hat. The authenticity of data is equally important when carrying out clinical trials. Usually, the individual or organization is trying to prove a hypothesis based on supporting data from the test, which if proven will generate huge financial gain, thus creating a hidden agenda.

This often results in fraud, potentially in the form of manipulation of data or hiding of unfavorable data which goes against the hypothesis. It's a common occurrence that is often pushed by greedy cartels looking to make a quick buck from the unsuspecting masses. However, this is set to end very soon as soon as Project Healthureum is fully implemented.

In the new Healthureum ecosystem, proof of existence will be essential, and blockchain technology enables the secure recording of this, in chronological order. Due to the characteristics of the blockchain, the data gets distributed across millions of machines, hence altering or tampering with the data virtually impossible without being detected. Think of how pleasant it will be knowing that any reports from clinical trials are 100% verifiable, correct and reflect the real situation on the ground.

What's more, blockchain technology can also be used in maintaining patient data integrity in clinical trials, where patients may contribute their data for research purposes while hiding identifiable data - something that is not possible at the moment.

Improving the Level of Interoperability Between Various Facets of Modern Healthcare


It is no secret that interoperability is virtually lacking in today's healthcare set up. While the wealthy have easy access to the best medical services that money can buy, the poor are still stuck with mediocre systems that are barely functional. There is an urgent need for interoperability.


Interoperability, as far as healthcare goes, refers to the ability of two or more systems to share, exchange and use the information shared between them. This is essential to facilitate patients to own their data, and give access to others to view or add new data to their record. It is a high-level form of collaboration that sees two or more parties work together for a common and higher end goal.
Similarly, two hospitals should be able to easily pull, and push data related to the same patient without needing to replicate that data in a different format for utilization. Blockchain-enabled health IT systems that are irrevocable and cryptographically secured could remove the hassle and cost of data reconciliation and provide access to both real-time and historic data to multiple users at one time.


Improved Claim Assessment

Welcome to the real world, where claim assessment is one of the most widely defrauded facets of our already ill healthcare set-up. Here's a quick overview of the situation. For starters, claim assessors and insurance companies have been accused of fraud and manipulation of claim assessments, causing patients to suffer colossal time delays and loss of claims due to incomplete or ‘mismanaged’ records. “Roughly 6 percent of all claims are denied because of incomplete or incorrect information," according to StClaire.

Secondly, 5-10% of billing costs arise from overbilling or billing for non-performed services, as estimated by Forbes. And this is just scratching the surface.


Enter Project Healthureum. Now, blockchain technology could eradicate this human risk through disintermediation, as claims would be settled using a smart contract which will auto issue the request on the satisfaction of pre-defined terms. By automating the majority of claims and payment processing activities, blockchain could significantly reduce the burden of patient losses, reconciliation of accounts and the cost of resolving disputes. In other words, is almost a near medical utopia. more info please visit https://www.healthureum.io/

Mismanagement of Healthcare Resources is still a Major Pain Point in Developing Countries. Here's how Project Healthureum can Combat the Growing Menace

Image
It goes without saying that the health sector must properly manage their resources for survival in turbulent times. Mismanagement of resources is still one of the major challenge facing Healthcare sector despite the groundbreaking steps that we have taken so far. As a result, millions around the globe don’t have easy access to high-quality health care as the available resources are either inadequate or poorly developed and structured. Reports of funds allocated for a particular activity in the health sector been lost in the hands of unknown people are not new. Still, the health sector is one of the most crucial institutions in any country, and therefore there is a need to employ a strategy which will solve the challenges and allow for smooth operations. In the past years, monitoring and evaluation of finances and other resources has been done manually via conventional paperwork, but it is clear that the method is not just efficient but can also be easily manipulated. Fortunately...

Project Healthureum's Mission and Vision May Seem Far-fetched but it is Still Attainable and Achievable. Here's Why

Image
Project Healthureum ’s mission and vision revolves around the “Provision of a future-proof system for managing your health.” While this seems like a daunting task to undertake, Project Healthureum has shown beyond reasonable doubt that this is still attainable and achievable. The current healthcare system is bogged down by many challenges the most significant being the variation in quality of services provided across private and public care institutions. More so in public hospitals, there is limited access to medical infrastructure, medical practitioners, and requirements for treatment programs. Project Healthureum seeks to streamline the healthcare sector by ensuring that quality affordable medical care is accessible for all. While this is no mean feat to achieve, Healthureum proves it’s possible via blockchain technology which seeks to get rid of the problems of access limitation, human manipulation and delays in prognosis in the following ways: Enhance Access to In...

How Healthureum's Data systemization is set to change healthcare

Image
To enable better patient data handling, Healthureum hopes to implement a Blockchain based data systemization system with the aim of making data sharing between patients, doctors, clinics, laboratories and other health-related departments easy and manageable. Through a Blockchain approach, Healthureum will achieve a secure, standardized EHR ecosystem that will guarantee higher patient satisfaction and better medical infrastructure management. Patients will enjoy better security, privacy and data integrity while hospital management will have their work cut out for them on the network. Healthureum's Blockchain network will allow anyone to store medical data on a single encrypted platform with a level of secure cryptographic sophistication that is reliable. As a result, stakeholders will have a tamper-proof data storage and sharing system, therefore, enabling regulatory bodies to set up consistent patient data sharing rules. Plus, hospital management and government bodies will be ...
