Why is bitcoin not used in medical billing?

[fantasticX5]

I am a person working in the health sector. I am looking forward to one day co-bitcoin be used to pay for medical examination and treatment and health care services.

Because no hospital had accepted bitcoin as mode of payment. Hopefully this will open to all hospital owner to accept bitcoin same as they accept credit cards. Although I seen some ICOs that has focus on health services maybe that will be the beginning for more adoption in health sector.

If there is no hospitals or medical clinics using it today, then it will in the coming future. But for crypto that is intended for the medical field, i have recently seen some of them and i think it will be successful becomes it's a whole new idea of bridging the medical world and the blockchain.

A lot of new token right now aims to be use as payment for  medical in the future example of that is DENTACOIN they aim to use DCN for care services and examination. They already have company partners and some DENTIST accepting DCN as payment.

the question is very intriguing to me, but do not know for other countries whether received clear in my country bitcoin is a forbidden trade, because besifat gambling, but not in blocking its existence is not published, so it can not be a means of payment, in medical

It is a good thing to use Bitcoin in a work like a medical, but it will take a lot of time to make it and have to make many policies. The government and the banks must meet Bitcoin and work together in different non-government organizations.

I don't agree with you, I think government and Banks don't mean to accept Bitcoin. Must be created some systems that include using payments into Bitcoin.

It'll just take a lot of time in processing the way of using the Bitcoin for medical billing, if the management of every countries agree on the system it might be pursued in the near future.

Bitcoin need to be stable first to be used in hospitals and other medical billing. There first need to be a fixed value for btc. They can;t just accept btc knowing that its value may decrease rapidly in just months.

It takes time to get to that era. But actually it does not matter when your workplace agency can receive payment with bitcoin.
for now the decision is still private so it is not possible there will be intervention from other parties.
Unlike when the government has made a decision by making the regulation, it will be very different from what will happen later.

For now, it does not exist yet. But someday it can be realized and done. Some time ago I came across several threads of projects in the health sector that used blockchain technology for all the pharmaceutical supply chains and health sectors. Medichain and FarmaTrush I mean. They will implement ICO for its implementation. According to Me, This is the first step to get there.

We all know that in other countries bitcoin is commonly used as payment in some stores because their accounting system is already upgraded to accept digital currency  and may be bitcoin is not used in hospital because their accounting system is not yet upgraded to receive bitcoin payment.

We’ll get there. One industry at a time. Real estate, food and transportation are the first ones that I foresee to accept bitcoin as payment. Then, almost everything else can be paid for using cryptocurrency. Be patient.

The problem is the bitcoin prices keep unstable because of that it will make them sometime get benefit sometime get disadvantage.
Maybe someday in future when bitcoin prices more stable your ideas will implemented by them.

Nowaday bitcoin has not been able to be known by various companies or more not yet known by companies engaged in the field of health. Every company is still comfortable using money fiat as a payment system. Actually to make payments using any tool can be done as long as many want it so that every company will start to arrange payment with the desired system. Being a legitimate payment system done bitcoin is worth using this is just a matter of process everyone will accept it one day ahead.

I hope that bitcoin will be used in paying medical bills. It is important to bitcoin users when they involve in accident. They can use their bitcoin to pay their medical bills. It will also be easy to pay medical bills if they use bitcoin.

I think you haven't ever heard of the hospital data breach. You could search Hancock Regional Hospital, they been hacked last year and the hackers demanded bitcoin as ransom to the data they have been held. Even though they don't want to negotiate with the criminals, they were been forced to do so due to the great importance of the data. Today their CEO is spreading the news, helping other hospitals so that they will not be the victim of the same incident. That is why the hospital has a phobia of bitcoins.

Things will be at the right time and the right place.
we don't need to rush everything.
bitcoin and blockchain are moving forward really fast.
we must expect it sooner or later.

[Micerker]

The use of Bitcoin in medical payments is possible, but the government should approve this. And every company that provides health care needs to accept Bitcoin, and then everything can work stably, avoiding all the trouble.

[mdzahed134]

Actually i think Bitcoin is not more used in medical platform.Bitcoin mostly used travelling, online shopping and other many important platform.Medichain & Dochademic is the medical based decentralized platform i have seen ever recently. Dochademic project huge successful ICO.Many doctors are try to involved in crypto currencies platform.I hope at future medical platform will be developed.

[jhonvir666]

it really comes as soon as possible and except for bitcoin but other crytocurrency has been out there. except for other days there will be projects that will join in such a kind of payment through the passing of so many technologies today and the growing members of alternative coins. farming companies and other means of livelihood can come as a kind of business.so medical billing is well come soon possible ..

[ElaineGanda]

I think there is no problem when btc will be used in transaction of medical. In fact, I think it will become useful because the patient don't need to wait for them to completely done their payment, instead they will just use btc for the payment.

Bitcoin hasn't yet, but many healthcare companies now starting to adopt the blockchain technology same idea of Bitcoin how it being used and these companies are continuing to develop their blockchain.
