Specific issues addressed include but are not limited to: How to analyse the value propositions in healthcare and which distributed actors should be engaged to fulfil these propositions?  What policies and practices need to be reviewed to ensure security and privacy of the information shared? How to design blockchain systems that seamlessly integrate with other stakeholder applications, while only the needed information is in the distributed architecture? How canblockchain implementation be managed from governance and risk mitigation perspectives, especially when multiple actors are involved?

By reading this book, blockchain enthusiasts, health informatics professionals and healthcare executives will be better prepared to leverage the transformative potential of blockchain for healthcare.
