Healthcare, blockchain
The problem 404 Healthline solves
Our project addresses the challenge of fragmented and inaccessible patient medical records across different regions and healthcare systems. By securely transferring patient data to the blockchain, hospitals worldwide can access accurate and up-to-date medical information whenever needed. This ensures faster diagnosis, better treatment decisions, and seamless healthcare coordination, especially for patients traveling or receiving treatment in different countries.
Challenges we ran into
One of the main challenges was ensuring strong data security while maintaining ease of access for authorized hospitals. We had to design a robust encryption method to protect patient privacy before centralizing and uploading the data to the blockchain. Managing the distribution of special decryption keys also posed difficulties, as it required balancing security with accessibility. Additionally, integrating blockchain technology with existing hospital systems and ensuring compliance with international health data regulations added complexity to the development process.
