One powerful way Web3 could disrupt healthcare access is by enabling decentralized, patient-owned health data networks.

Why it’s a global win:
Patients regain control of their health records through self-sovereign identities and encrypted storage, accessible anywhere in the world.

Doctors and clinics can securely access up-to-date records with permissioned access — no more fragmented files across providers or borders.

It enables cross-border care, especially for refugees or underserved populations, by eliminating reliance on centralized health systems.

Tokenized incentives could reward people for contributing anonymized data to research, improving treatments globally.

This shift creates a healthcare model that’s portable, transparent, and inclusive — truly borderless and patient-first.
