Key Insight
“The onset of data analytics and blockchain have great potential in improving many health disparities and producing successful outcomes."
Abstract
Health disparities in the United States continue to persist as a major challenge to all stakeholders in healthcare. The impact of improving health disparities and reducing health inequities is significant as health disparities are arguably the largest barrier existing to achieving a healthy population. The onset of data analytics and blockchain have great potential in improving many health disparities and producing successful outcomes. However, regulatory aspects and concerns over privacy for blockchain and data analytics must be addressed before these technologies can become commonplace in the healthcare industry. Ultimately, we see these tools as potential game-changers for the healthcare industry and recommend that healthcare leaders explore both within and outside of their industry to leverage and maximize the potential of these technologies.
