Methods, systems, and storage media for managing patient information using a blockchain network

This invention describes a system that uses a blockchain to securely manage patient health information. It works by taking two different types of biometric data from a patient, like a fingerprint and an iris scan, to create a unique digital code, which is then stored on the blockchain along with other health information and encrypted patient credentials. A master digital code is generated, and special tokens linked to it can be used to access the patient's health information, with validation handled by a smart contract on the blockchain.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of decentralized identity standards and more mature blockchain infrastructure. The claims' focus on tokens for access aligns better with current Web3 developments and the increased demand for patient data sovereignty and verifiable credentials.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedSoftware logic, blockchain, cryptography, smart contracts
