This contribution outlines a conceptual model of a novel approach to chronic disease prevention and management: Preventative Health Account Supported by Electronic Medical Records (PHASE). The PHASE model combines predictive computation of risk scores for chronic disease and use of alternative currencies on blockchain technology to build a preventative health account to help individuals invest in a healthier lifestyle, reduce their risk scores and, in turn, reduce the related potential cost to the healthcare system.

Abstract

This contribution outlines a conceptual model of a novel approach to chronic disease prevention and management: Preventative Health Account Supported by Electronic Medical Records (PHASE). The PHASE model combines predictive computation of risk scores for chronic disease and use of alternative currencies on blockchain technology to build a preventative health account to help individuals invest in a healthier lifestyle, reduce their risk scores and, in turn, reduce the related potential cost to the healthcare system.
