Brazil, Mexico, and Rest of Latin America together constitute the market in this region.Mexico’s healthcare sector represents a crucial for all types of products & services. The overall imports of medical devices and supplies reached $5.7 billion in 2019. Whereas, the imports of pharmaceuticals amounted to $4.6 billion in 2018. Blockchain is a promising technology, and acts as a unified solution for an efficient and secure pharmaceutical supply chain management in the country. The uniquely distributed network of the blockchain would facilitate complete end-to-end supply chain management for every product and company.
In 2017, close to 40% of the hospitals in the Latin American region had an electronic medical records (EMR) solution in place. Also, investments are being made for the further development of the same. For instance, Brazil made a multi-million dollar investment in 2016 for unifying all the government’s EMRs into a single system. Several other countries in Latin America boast of a high EMR penetration rate.
The healthcare industry faces the challenge of keeping key medical data with stakeholders while simultaneously protecting patient privacy and maintaining data integrity. The data contained in an EMR and shared on a distributed blockchain ledger is kept updated and secured, ready for use by anyone with permission to access it. A blockchain-based electronic medical records solution also reduces the time needed to access patient data while enhancing interoperability and improving data quality. A growth in EMR penetration thus aids the growth of the blockchain in healthcare market.
