MediChain is a Medical Big-Data Platform. Our proposed system allows patients to store their own medical data off-chain in an appropriate geographic domain. It not only allows them to share it with doctors and specialists anywhere, regardless of the payer network or EMR used, but also allows them to share it anonymously with scientists working to develop treatments and cures, providing Big Data to revolutionize treatment development and monetize via pharmaceutical companies, researchers and insurers.
