A technical overview of MedCredits’ decentralized and encrypted EMR

MedCredits is the first truly decentralized healthcare platform that unifies medical services and storage of medical records. This post will describe how this is accomplished. The Hippocrates teledermatology dapp will be used as the framework for this discussion, but the proposed solution will be available as an open-source API for development of any 3rd party healthcare dapp.

How is this stronger than etheal? They already have a network up and running and I'm struggling to see the difference.

It looks like Etheal is mainly focused on incentivizing patients to review doctors and doctors to produce medical content that is digestible for the layman.

MedCredits is focused on accessibility of care and cost of care which is very different from reviews. We are starting by creating an open-market for telemedicine services. 3 billion people lack access to specialty care and MedCredits is creating a global platform connecting these patients to doctors at an affordable price.

This seems interesting, thinking about joining the project.

having a background in medical, i think that something like secure decentralized medical records is a good idea as one of the problems in healthcare is letting practitioners access records as right now there are so many proprietary storage systems that practitioners cannot get the info they need as its on a system they do not have access to. even then sometimes formats are not compatible with a practices existing software so examining it can be time consuming and problematic.

but if this takes off the storage requirements could grow to staggeringly huge numbers as imaging (mri pet ct etc) in particular gets more complex (ie file sizes grow).  so forgive me if this has been answered but is this actually realistic? how much storage can this scale to? not the blockchain that stores the hashes but the storage of the actual patient data.
