CareChain

CareChain is a joint effort to establish Blockchain Infrastructure and Personal Data Management for Health. Blockchain technology comes from how it can enable coordination of large scale collaboration in open ecosystems. However, in order to minimise coordination , initially, they propose the establishment of a national consortia within the Swedish ecosystem to tackle the regulatory challenges in a confined and local context first. They are not developing the technology but rolling out the infrastructure to start testing and take advantage of the automation and security benefits to be reaped already today. The first and most important fix is to flip the data ownership model towards Self-Sovereign Health Records. They are ready to deploy this but for resiliance and to achieve security by numbers in their consensus algorithm they need members to run and guarantee network nodes. The CareChain consortium was founded by CareChain AB in March 2017 and they are now actively soliciting co-founding partners.
