At present, most of the big names in the industry hailing from different business
sectors are investing in Blockchain. Many startups are also working on Blockchain
technology. In this blog, we will be focusing on health insurance sectors. However,
health insurance uses all the modern technology and digital platforms to keep the
data and information secure and run their operations, vulnerabilities, and ease of

2. Administrative And Strategic Work With Smart Contracts- One of the most
significant benefits of Blockchain is smart contracts. These digitized contracts
work automatically once the conditions of the contract are met. Blockchain can
collect all the data, agreements, records, and transactions and act on the data
using smart contracts.

3. Fraud Detection- One of the challenging problems which Blockchain can help
with is fraud detection. When a fake information is submitted to a health insurer
via false claims or applications, it causes a huge loss to the system in the form of
money. But with the help of Blockchain and smart contracts, the health insurance
company can cross-check the claim and verify it, thus making the system
trustworthy and transparent.

4. Promoting client-insurer relationship- Data security and accessibility are
something that every client wants. With Blockchain’s help, we have a secured
system that is easier to access, and at the same time, all the information is
encrypted cryptographically. Thus it helps in creating a secured system.

5. Ease Of Accessibility- Any business’s success relies on how easy it is to
access the data. Well, Blockchain provides a platform that is both public and
private. The user has the key to this DLT can access the data at any time.
Moreover, the decentralized server ensures that the data is always accessible. All
this eventually helps in improving the operations of the healthcare sector. This
makes the healthcare insurance sector a more client-centric system. All of this will
enhance the functioning of the healthcare insurance sector.

Concluding Thoughts-Even though the healthcare insurance sector contributes
to a good share of global business, the development regarding the same is very
slow. The reliance on conventional technology is not reaping the benefits that it
should. As per Tieron, healthcare data is the prime target for hackers. In the dark
web world, healthcare data is sold for $20 compared to the credit card number,
which is sold at $1. Such pressure makes it inevitable for healthcare companies to
focus on systems that are far more secure and keep hackers at bay.
