Medipedia is a blockchain-based digital healthcare service and information platform created to help medical consumers, especially medical tourists, with credible information and reliable medical services. The platform intends to create a new revolutionary healthcare ecosystem based on the blockchain technology. Let’s talk about some more features of the Medipedia blockchain application.

The Medipedia platform utilizes the power of blockchain to decentralize the patients’ records and data so that they can be conveniently accessed by medical institutions and doctors to get a correct analysis of the patient's’ condition and provide treatments accordingly. The platform can also be used by medical consumers for finding and connecting with reliable and cost-effective healthcare services in a region.

As for the features of the Medipedia Blockchain Application, here you go.

Feature 1: Healthcare Matching Service

As the name suggests, this feature allows patients to compare and find the best (or affordable) healthcare providers for a particular query. Here’ how the service can be utilized on the Medipedia platform.

Write down your healthcare request/query on the Medipedia platform. The request will be delivered to a number of healthcare providers (doctors and institutions), depending on their qualification, via the blockchain network. The relevant medical providers will answer your query describing how they can provide the best healthcare in the case. The price quote will also be sent along with. The patient can then compare the various services based on the information, price quote, etc., and choose and connect with the right medical provider.

Medipedia, thus, provides a convenient and time-saving way for patients to find and connect with the right medical services.

Feature 2: Medical service consultation system

This is a uniquely helpful medical service that the Medipedia platform users can benefit from by simply following the steps mentioned below. Patients can ask a particular healthcare provider for more details about their service and cost and get consulted via phone, chat or email. Here’s how the medical service consultation feature works:

When using the medical matching service, a patient can also ask the healthcare provider (doctor or institution) for detailed consultation regarding a particular medical condition and ask information about possible treatments, the cost associated, etc. Depending on the convenience and availability, the patient can consult with the doctor/institution via phone, chat, email or video call, all of which is digitized through a smart contract.

This facility allows patients to verify a medical institution/service for skills, experience and the cost and get a free consultation. This is particularly beneficial in the field of medical tourism.

Feature 3: The compensation system

The Medipedia compensation system has been designed with the purpose of encouraging more users to participate and also to make the verification of medical providers easier. The Medipedia users are rewarded for their activities on the platform, while the medical service providers are rewarded based on the reviews shared by patients about them. The rewards system also maintains a healthy circulation of Medipedia’s tokens in the market.

Here’s how the compensation system works.

Medical staff, professionals and institutions are rewarded based on the patient’s review of their services. Patients are compensated for their use of the platform and for referring other patients on the Medipedia platform. Reward points (MPR) also work as a way for patients to check the credibility of a particular service provider and/or medical staff before choosing them. The higher the rewards points, the better the service.

Note: Medipedia Rewards (MPR) are special tokens given as rewards. They are different from MEP tokens and can only be used for payment of services within the Medipedia application.

The main purpose of Rewards Points is to give users a way to measure the quality and satisfaction-rate of various healthcare providers. A medical provider with more rewards points is certainly better than others.

This feature also motivates healthcare providers to offer better services so that they can get more points and attract more users.

To conclude, Medipedia makes the perfect use of blockchain to provide general people with access to reliable and convenient healthcare services. This makes it one of the best blockchain applications today. Visit the website to find out more. The Medipedia ICO begins in August 2018.
