  20. that may be the true cause or did not understand medical terminologies
  21. to correctly relay information to health care providers,

  55. Mhm.
  56. Yeah
  57. Blockchain.
  58. Blockchain is defined as a secure leisure
  59. that organizes the growing list of transaction records
  60. into a hierarchical expanding chain of blocks.
  61. Each block is guarded by cryptographic techniques to
  62. enforce strong integrity of its transaction records.
  63. A distributed leisure is a consensus of replicated,
  64. shared and synchronized digital data across multiple sites
  65. institutions or geographies
  66. and can be accessed by multiple people.
  67. The ledgers of digital data are stored into a chain of blocks.
  68. Having a distributed essential Ized network creates the possibility
  69. of sharing secured healthcare information all around the world.
  70. Help books.
  71. What is hill blocks?
  72. Help block is a select decentralized network.
  73. For example,
  74. if you register at hospital. Hey when you were born

  76. information about you dear
  77. A. And B. Can join the network and have various information on the patient

  79. across all medical organizations on the network,
  80. making it easier to track illnesses and monitor trends of patients
  81. health. Black Archie's consensus validity
  82. and security
  83. consensus
  84. can be achieved
  85. through proof of work
  86. and smart contracts,
  87. validity,
  88. validity
  89. through its peer to peer network
  90. information is secure
  91. as one person cannot just add to your file and be validated.
  92. Security
  93. with hill blocks secured and credible medical information can
  94. be stored across private and public medical organizations.
  95. Health blocks is envisioned to have its logo on Hall Healthcare facility,
  96. meaning that healthcare provider joined the network and supports
  97. traceable secured information on their patients across the network.
  98. This alleviates the problem of health literacy
  99. verified
  100. traceable information
  101. is on the network
  102. and also
  103. is accessible by the patient.
  104. Thanks for watching our video.
