Leah Houston (@LeahHoustonMD), MD, an emergency physician and founder of HPEC (@HPECid) as well as Evercred, explains blockchain as a decentralizer of physician and patient data and how it will be applied ubiquitously across the healthcare system. Dr. Houston shares and makes the case for how blockchain stores medical data and keeps the ownership in the hands of physicians, offers a solution to issuing and maintaining digital credentials for healthcare professionals, and highlights how physician interest and involvement are crucial to “reclaiming ownership of the profession and our individual identities.”Visit the HPEC website to receive your invitation.https://www.hpec.io/Visit Dr. Houston’s Evercred website.https://www.evercred.com/Check out Chadi’s website for all Healthcare Unfiltered episodes and other content. www.chadinabhan.com/Watch all Healthcare Unfiltered episodes on Youtube. www.youtube.com/channel/UCjiJPTpIJdIiukcq0UaMFsA
