Overview
Diaspora Health Network (DHN), a physician-led health-tech ecosystem, aims to revolutionize healthcare accessibility in underserved regions by leveraging advanced technologies.
Our Health Network Platform with NASA Technologies
The integration of NASA's RENCAT (Remote, Noninvasive, Cardiac Activity Tracer) and HeartBeatID technologies into the Diaspora Health Network platform aligns with this mission.
By utilizing the IP Blockchain Framework, these technologies will create a secure, scalable, and decentralized healthcare solution.
Intended Use
RENCAT (Remote, Noninvasive, Cardiac Activity Tracer):
Objective: Provide noninvasive cardiac health monitoring.
Use Case: RENCAT will enable remote detection of cardiac issues in real time, ensuring early diagnosis and continuous health monitoring in resource-constrained environments.
Deployment: Portable devices equipped with RENCAT will be distributed to clinics, community health workers, and patients in underserved areas.
HeartBeatID:
Objective: Authenticate patients and providers through unique cardiac electrical signatures.
Use Case: HeartBeatID will be employed as a biometric authentication method, ensuring secure access to electronic health records (EHRs) and telemedicine platforms.
Deployment: Integrated with mobile applications and devices to streamline identity management and reduce fraud in healthcare services.
Commercialization Plans
Product Development:
Design and manufacture affordable, portable versions of RENCAT and HeartBeatID devices, leveraging local production facilities in Opportunity Zones.
Develop a smartphone-compatible application to facilitate remote monitoring and authentication.
Revenue Model:
Subscription-Based Services: Charge healthcare providers a subscription fee for using the integrated platform.
Device Sales: Offer subsidized devices to clinics and NGOs while ensuring cost recovery through tiered pricing models.
Data
Monetization: Provide anonymized health insights to research institutions and public health organizations, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations.
Partnerships:
Collaborate with government agencies, NGOs, and private sector stakeholders to fund and scale the deployment.
Engage local communities to ensure cultural and operational alignment.
Integration with the IP Blockchain Platform
Data Security and Integrity:
Store health data, including RENCAT and HeartBeatID outputs, on a decentralized blockchain ledger.
Use the IP Blockchain Framework to ensure that data is immutable and tamper-proof, enhancing trust and compliance with healthcare regulations.
Biometric Authentication:
Combine RENCAT’s mechanical heart vibration data with HeartBeatID’s electrical signature for dual-factor biometric authentication.
Utilize blockchain to store and verify encrypted biometric keys, ensuring secure and seamless access to healthcare services.
Smart Contracts for Healthcare:
Deploy smart contracts to automate insurance claims, patient onboarding, and service payments.
Link biometric authentication with smart contracts to trigger payments only after successful service delivery.
Decentralized Healthcare Access:
Enable patients to own and control their health data using the blockchain.
Provide transparent access logs to enhance accountability and patient trust.
Scalability and Interoperability:
Design the blockchain platform to integrate with existing EHR systems and telemedicine platforms.
Use modular architecture to support additional NASA technologies and expand the solution's capabilities over time.
