How Can Your Skills Fit into the Blockchain Trend in Healthcare IT?

Posted

The increase in demand for real-time approvals is calling for the replacement of the slow and frustrating process of billing and approving healthcare related decisions. As consumers, physicians, and insurance companies drive that change, people are increasingly embracing the magic of blockchain to manage the large strings of interrelated data.

What’s Blockchain?

Blockchain is a series of data where the last is tied to the one previous and the previous is tied to the one prior to that, all the way back to the beginning of a data set. If a change is made at any point in the chain, the rest of the chain reflects that it has been changed. Make this even more secure by replicating the chain across many peer devices and you’ve got a more secure and more robust data system.

What’s it mean for your resume?

While the healthcare industry is ramping up to full conversion, it’s not going to, nor should it, happen overnight. One of the fundamental issues with prior Electronic Medical Record systems is that there are many different platforms operating many different systems; the conversion to Blockchain means that all of those legacy systems will have to be converted and mined in order to not lose the years of data inside the existing systems. Experts in the legacy systems are going to be in demand to convert those systems. It’s also going to give you an opportunity to grow into the trend and slowly add your new skills into your existing ones.

What should I do currently to get in on this?

Start learning all you can about how Blockchain works. Start thinking about how the rest of the of your skills and how you can maximize your expertise in the conversion. Which platforms and systems can you match with your expertise? Where can you innovate efficiency and maximize your cross-platform skills?
