I agree, I was referring to more use cases with the outlook of incorporating blockchain into the existing openEHR model. Not blockchain itself.

Mayor players are diving into this trillion dollar business. Health information will need to be accessible, and blockchain can be used to guard all interaction between systems. You can find dozens of documents which handle about this. In the Netherlands Nictiz is busy with it. For example read this (sorry, only Dutch) https://www.nictiz.nl/SiteCollectionDocuments/Whitepapers/Blockchain_in_de_zorg.pdf Summarizing: - Blockchain is needed when interacting parties do not trust or know each other - A trusted third party cannot be found or is not desirable - Validity en transparency of transactions is important - Stored or interchanged data are very important On 13-11-17 13:02, Anastasiou A. wrote: > Perhaps an optional Blockchain capability could be added in the service > model, at points where an > "internal" system had to interface with one or more "external" systems. > > For example, you could provide access to a specific dataset and blockchain > calls that > modify its state. > > This would then also require the extension of the service model for verifying > certain actions > against the blockchain. > > Within the RM, there is the Feeder System Audit > (http://www.openehr.org/releases/RM/latest/docs/common/common.html#_feeder_system_audit) > > It's a new concept, still needs use cases about it I think. > > All the best > Athanasios Anastasiou > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: openEHR-technical [mailto:[email protected]] > On Behalf Of Bert Verhees > Sent: 13 November 2017 11:47 > To: For openEHR technical discussions > Subject: Blockchain > > How are the plans about blockchain for OpenEhr?
