In the first quarter of 2020, Dragonchain was able to partner with Medek Health Systems. The city of Apopka was looking for an application to help enable employees get back to work, as safely as possible. We are honored that Medek Health Systems selected Dragonchain to ensure privacy and personal medical data of individuals is respected.

In the application, a medical assessment provides directions on next steps to take. Should an individual go into quarantine? Or perhaps consider getting tested or seeking medical help for having Covid-19 symptoms? After completing a questionnaire, a medical risk score is assigned to a user. Users of the application are even able to use telemedicine for Covid-19, and have access to medical professionals directly through the app. But where does blockchain come into play?

Every step along the way is recorded and validated on Dragonchain’s hybrid blockchain protocol. A combination of ledgering and smart contracts is used to trace the workflow, and provide proof of the predescribed workflow. The system takes into consideration new methods and tests to become available over time, making it a flexible solution. Individuals are able to proof their employee or other authority that the prescribed process has been followed. Within a matter of weeks the application was launched in the Google Play Store and the Apple App store. Medek Health Systems continues to integrate more blockchain based solutions into the application, including our decentralized identity solution Factor.
