Through our Blockchain-enabled digital health wallets, CoverUS moves patients to the center of their data value chain, affording them a more direct and fruitful relationship with the medical industry and other payers who can help subsidize the health care they need. More people can afford to go to the doctor, industry gets dynamic data to spur innovation, and more resources are unlocked to invest in our collective future.
Nearly one quarter of Americans can’t afford an unexpected medical bill of even $100, leaving people to make tough choices between their health and other basic needs. While you may struggle to pay for care, private companies are making billions of dollars by selling your medical data whenever you go to the hospital, visit your doctor, make an insurance claim, or even fill a prescription.
Your health care data should be your private property, and if anyone is making money from that data, it should be you. The CoverUS smartphone app puts you in control of your medical data for the first time, keeping that data secure, and rewarding you financially for enriching that data and taking good care of yourself.
CoverUS is winner of the Consensys hackathon 2017
