DIGITALIZATION OF MEDICAL RECORDS WITH MEDIBLOCK

Some years back in high school, I remember going to the hospital to see the doctor. It had been a while since I visited the hospital, five months to be precise. The normal procedure was to submit your hospital card to enable them search for your file, which I did. I waited for over three hours only to be told that my file was missing and was advised to open another (wasting my time and loosing important medical data). I wasn't happy with that because I was in pain and I needed an urgent medication at that moment. At some point, I was told to come into the room to search for my file in annoyance which I was about to before a doctor I knew intervened (which depicted no privacy and lack of security for other peoples medical records). He asked for a new file to be opened which took a while before I was attended to. This experience depicted how careless they were with medical records, lacked privacy and security of records.

This is what mediblock, a decentralized healthcare information system is created to change and improve medical services; making it easier for not just they patients but also, they medical practitioners and researchers as well. They hope to achieve this by giving full control of medical records to patient/users who have the power to grant permission to who so ever they please. This blockchain ensures not just the privacy and security of a patient's medical records, but ensures people are attended to on time, most especially during times of emergency. With this decentralized Blockchain, people can be able to get treatment with ease and on time anywhere in the world. This will transform the medical data industry in such a way that patients are aware of their medical history and wouldn't have to go through the process of explaining to another doctor of how they feel or what their going through because they have a mediacal history at hand to back them up. This will help they doctors have a good and accurate knowledge of what their patients are going through, what drugs they've been taking and what best alternative treatment to recommend them. Also, cases where referral is needed, just a click will do. All these, mediblock services provides and even more.

GOOD BYE TO JAM-PACKED FILES WITH MEDIBLOCK"

Most hospitals occupy their rooms with both files of the living and the dead which will come to an end with mediblock which provides a digitalized platform where files will no longer be needed for operation. This will ensure proper utilization of hospital rooms. Privacy and security of patients files will be assured with this digitalization.

Mediblock makes medical clearance easy for institutions-My country, Nigeria as a case study"

In my country, part of the registration processes most tertiary institution do is the medical clearance. Every freshman must go through some compulsory test which takes a week or two to complete. At times, errors are made due to the thousands of students undergoing same process which gives wrong information about the students health and can cause serious problems in the future. Even when applying for most jobs, a medical report is usually needed to know the health status of interviewees incase they get employed by the organization. Mediblock will greatly help in providing a more accurate and comprehensive medical data without having to go through all the processes of medical assertion.
