💊HealthLink Solutions: The Healthcare of Tomorrow

HealthLink Dual Blockchain

HealthLink is built using a dual blockchain structure. The first blockchain controls access to health records and is built using Hyperledger Fabric.

Hyperledger Fabric

The Hyperledger blockchain network is permission-based and requires users to sign up to use it. Permissioning on the network is controlled using Hyperledger modelling and access control languages. Hyperledger Fabric is a platform for distributed ledger solutions underpinned by a modular architecture delivering high degrees of confidentiality, resilience, flexibility and scalability. Medical information is often highly sensitive, in both a social and legal sense, so a closed blockchain such as Hyperledger Fabric helps to retain the necessary privacy required for such an application. Hyperledger Fabric is a better solution for managing access to health records, as it accommodates for multiple layers of permission, meaning the owner of a set of data can control which parts of their data is accessed.

HealthLink as a Healthcare Platform

Using blockchain technology, Smart Contracts, and our cryptocurrency, HealthLink provides the infrastructure for digital health applications and services to be built. These applications and services will be seamlessly powered by user’s health data. Anyone will be able to develop on HealthLink’s platform and we hope to foster a thriving ecosystem to provide value, reduce costs, and ultimately improve people’s lives.

Identity management using Civic

Identity fraud is a massive problem in the world.

Hackers steal identities and impersonate users to incur huge costs on both users and businesses. To combat this, HealthLink has partnered with Civic and will use Civic’s user authentication services to easily and securely manage the identities of users in a decentralised way. Civic identifies and verifies users using biometrics, which provides a simple and safe way of ensuring user’s privacy
