MedHub Features:

  1. User Registration: Users can register either as a doctor or a patient. Doctors must provide their credentials, such as a registration ID, for approval by the admin to be added to the system.

  2. Doctor Approval: Before a doctor can access patient data, they must be verified and approved in the system by the admin, ensuring only qualified professionals provide care.

  3. Patient Health Profiles: Patients can create accounts, describe their health conditions, and select from available doctors. Once a doctor is chosen, the patient grants the doctor access to their medical records.

  4. Appointment Booking: Patients can book appointments with their selected doctor directly through the platform, streamlining the healthcare process.

  5. Doctor-Patient Communication: Patients can chat with doctors to discuss their progress, treatment, and overall health condition, facilitating ongoing communication.

  6. AI Chatbot for Medical Information: Both patients and doctors can use MedHub’s integrated AI chatbot to search for relevant health information and advice, enhancing the support available.

  7. Prescription Ordering: Patients can order prescribed medication directly from MedHub’s store, making it easier to access required treatments from trusted sources.

NOTE
A doctor won’t be able to access any patient data until they have been approved by the admin. The admin is responsible for verifying the doctor’s credentials before granting access to patient records, ensuring a secure and controlled environment. If you’d like to test the app, I will be reviewing the accounts created and approving them manually. Once approved, you’ll be able to fully interact with the platform. Additionally, I will later provide the source code so you can test the app on your own device. This will give you a hands-on experience with how MedHub works and its security protocols in action.

I discontinued the ChainAI project because it didn’t work well, now I am working on Medhub

1. Decentralized Data Storage: MedHub leverages decentralized storage solutions on the BTTC (BitTorrent Chain) to store patient data. This means that instead of relying on a central server, which could be vulnerable to hacks or breaches, patient data is distributed across a secure network. This decentralization reduces the risk of unauthorized access, ensuring that patient information remains private and secure.

2. Data Encryption: All patient data stored and transmitted through MedHub is encrypted using advanced cryptographic algorithms. This ensures that even if data were to be intercepted, it would be unreadable to unauthorized parties. Only patients and their authorized healthcare providers have the decryption keys necessary to access the information.

3. Patient-Controlled Access: MedHub gives patients full control over who can access their medical data. Patients can grant or revoke access to their information at any time, ensuring that only trusted healthcare professionals can view their sensitive health records. This approach empowers patients to manage their privacy proactively.

4. Smart Contracts for Data Access: Access to patient data is managed through smart contracts on the blockchain. These contracts ensure that all access requests are logged, transparent, and only granted according to the patient’s explicit consent. This adds an additional layer of security and trust, as all actions are recorded immutably on the blockchain.

Welcome to Season 7, I’m wowed by reading your offering, a healthcare-focused dApp leveraging blockchain technology (BTTC) and AI to decentralize medical data storage and streamline services, this is pretty innovative to say the least.
My concern really is bordering around patient’s data, decentralizing medical data storage raises concerns about data privacy, even with blockchain security and you will need to implement stringent consent management protocols to ensure patients fully control access to their medical data. How will patients revoke access, and what systems will ensure their data is truly erased upon request?

Welcome to the Hackathon of season 7, I am liking how you are placing your focus on healthcare, I want you to tell me with how fake fake drugs are everywhere, how will you make sure that the medicine that sell through your platform are original and how are you going to handle issues about fraud activity, thank you

No…it failed, I started when it was late.

Thank you for your reply, I can see that MedHub’s got some serious security measures in place, I like that patients are in control of their own medical info. Can you explain how all these security features work together to keep patient data safe?
Because I know that not all patients conditions are meant to be public.

MedHub is a new way to make healthcare better using Web3 technology.
It helps keep medical information safe, makes it easier for patients and doctors to talk, and makes buying medicine more efficient.
It also uses AI to make things easier and give personalized health advice.

My Question is

In what way will MedHub work with existing healthcare systems and get more people to use it, Will it be able to handle a lot of users and work with other systems.

It is so bad that the owner do not even reply to questions that are been asked to him

@ines_valerie
Don’t be angry, probably networking or occupied with something different.
