What is the Blockchain? Before jumping on to Blockchain expansion in different fields, it is essential to understand what is this technology and what are its various features which makes it so inevitable? The blockchain is a digital distributed ledger. It is the underlying technology for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency exchange. The platform has all the information time-stamped which makes it easy for the user to track the information. Furthermore, Blockchain or DLT is the technology works on peer-to-peer transactions which means that there is no involvement of the third party in the same. It results in lowering the processing fee cost and also saves the time that goes during the validation process. 4 Copyright © Blockchain Council www.blockchain-council.org

It can be used to create a centralized and secure database where the doctors can store all the medical history and could be easily accessed by authorized doctors and patients. Smart Contracts:- As the name indicates, these contracts are digitized and operate based on certain programming. In case of smart contracts, two parties who decide to work together agree to certain terms and conditions which gets recorded as code on the blockchain. When the event occurs and is completed following the pre-set conditions, the payment is initiated. 9 Copyright © Blockchain Council www.blockchain-council.org
