Blockchain Techn: Game Changer in Medical Tourism | Brings healthcare solutions to promote better patient experience for medical travelers

"Blockchain technology is permeating healthcare rapidly, bringing healthcare solutions to promote better patient experience for medical travelers. Blockchain technology offers solutions to several barriers in medical tourism and health tourism, such as poor pre-travel logistics, record exchange between healthcare providers, and loss of patient visibility in a tourist destination country.

These problems often lead to a waste of money and potential health risks for the patient, as well as reduced destination attractiveness for the medical tourist destination."

A lack of access to a patient’s health records can slow down the care process, lead to healthcare mishaps, and ruin the reputation and attractiveness of a hospital or health travel destination - This statement reminds me of an episode in House where South Americans (I can't remember from what country exactly) traveled to the US for the sake of having a chanced to get properly diagnosed by House and be cured. It's terrible that it happens but it's fact of life.
