PHI

Boom just like PHI 7-0 KC Just wanting a good close game I normally bet but I'll put that money into ETH or BTC for every TD scored 🏈

Actually, you know what? Now I'm mad. We've got senators up there raising hell trying to get us to report our wallets lest we skip town or avoid taxes (which most of us aren't even doing, having bought and planning to sell on registered exchanges, holding only for safekeeping), and they STILL haven't done anything about protecting our PII and PHI. Identity theft is still a major problem, and we have dozens of information brokers putting our data into search results. Fuck this. Let them legislate to help people instead of using existing taxes to chase more control to get more taxes. We paid for government and it isn't here to help latelely.

>You can store the records on chain if you want. It's up to you. Blocks are chunks of data. How you want to implement it is up to you. We keep going back and forth on this. Either you store medical records on a block which is not hipaa compliant, or you just store the log. You can't apply one thing and say it works for both. > IBM is doing this with HyperLedger - https://www.ibm.com/impact/covid-19/vaccine-management Dude this is simply managing stock, supply, and inventory. It's not actual PHI medical records w/ patients. Just call it what it is and say there aren't any blockchains being used with actual medical records and leave it. >If you dig enough, you'll find usage. I'm not going to dig for you. So me saying there aren't any, but you saying there are. THerefore the burden of proof is on me?

https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-professionals/special-topics/health-information-technology/cloud-computing/index.html Blockchains break two aspects: 1. Manner in which data will be returned to the customer after service use termination; 2. Use, retention and disclosure limitations There's also the matter of encrypting the data and verification of the encryption, which I'll admit IDK if a blockchain can do without unencrypting it first, which breaks protocol. In addition, encryption does not maintain the integrity and availability of the ePHI, such as ensuring that the information is not corrupted by malware, or ensuring through contingency planning that the data remains available to authorized persons **even during emergency or disaster situations**. A blockchain cannot make these assurances of availability during instances of lack of internet access. Bottom line, don't fuck with PHI or HIPAA especially with blockchain tech.

> referencing it is enough. This in itself can be considered privileged PHI data. source: In pharma and deal with this on the regular.

Something that will reform our healthcare system in the US. Would ideally like to build partnerships with already established file storage technologies like Filecoin to help facilitate personal health information(PHI) and reduce the burden of charting on our physicians and other healthcare workers. On the patient side, perhaps using personal NFT identification to access PHI (can be used on the physician side as well) for the allowed parties without violating HIPAA, could partner with privacy technologies as well. Would love to reduce the cost and financial burden of healthcare itself but that’s even a bigger issue

And PHI 76ers jersey sponsors. Serie A sponsors. Sure we are forgetting some.

I've thought a lot about healthcare on the blockchain, i'm in an innovation lab for a giant healthcare company. PHI is really the big thorny problem. The thing that makes blockchain good, is not good when applied to PHI. The thing about healthcare privacy is even if you remove all PII, the PHI is still identifiable. I've thought about stuff like ZK rollups, but that doesn't really solve the problem without throwing out the usefulness.... and the usefullness is HUGE if you can solve the problem right.

>Wouldn't that then make it more difficult to adjust incorrectly entered PHI if it is then on the Blockchain for all eternity? I mean yes it is for all eternity, but from a technical point we are talking about a dapp, build with smart contracts, which will have declared in X variable your PHI, at any time you can make a transaction to the contract and update any public variable.

But why would you need a coin to do that? It sounds like if you just implement a medical standard record for all patients for all hospitals/physicians, then problem solved, no? Wouldn't a coin be subject to the same potential for wrong information as today's emails? I mean when you send an email from Party A to Party B, the information within that email isn't being lost/compromised. If a doctor or nurse enter information incorrectly about their patient into their medical record system, it would still be incorrect if a coin was used because that would be the original entry. Wouldn't that then make it more difficult to adjust incorrectly entered PHI if it is then on the Blockchain for all eternity? Also, in the US HIPAA laws are very strict, would a coin ensure that absolutely no PHI can be accessed other than the authorized parties? I'm also just learning about all of this so there could be great explanations for all of my questions. I hope there is and crypto can help improve healthcare in the US.

Except you wouldn’t want to store SSNs or other PHI/PII on the blockchain.
