Kaleido

Technology Category	Application Infrastructure & Middleware - Blockchain Platform as a Service (PaaS) - Application Development Platforms
Applicable Industries	Electronics Healthcare & Hospitals
Services	System Integration
Challenge	The healthcare sector is a complex ecosystem that requires seamless coordination and collaboration between various participants including doctors, clinicians, nurses, administrative staff, and patients. However, the lack of proper coordination and collaboration often leads to administrative waste, which is estimated to exceed $200B annually in the US. This inefficiency accounts for up to 34% of total healthcare costs. The costs are even higher when considering the real health consequences of delayed or improper diagnosis due to misinformation. Furthermore, the healthcare sector deals with sensitive data, including Personally Identifiable Information (PII), which cannot be shared outside of the immediate network. Therefore, healthcare workers need to have confidence in the data they use, and healthcare organizations need to ensure data integrity and know that the data was not tampered with. Read More
