Highlights from Advancing the Business of Health with Blockchain and Frontier Tech at ConV2X Symposium 2023.

Many people in the healthcare industry mistake the turbulent cryptocurrency market for a technology that offers significant benefits to healthcare administration, including improved interoperability, revenue recapture, and enhanced security and patient safety. Recently, these subjects were explored during the ConVerge2Xcelerate (ConV2X) 2023 Symposium held at Loyola University in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Who benefits most from this discussion - service providers, those seeking to transform outdated business models, or both? The mention of blockchain technology often discourages conversation, causing those who have sound success solutions to approach the topic from alternate perspectives. In the Blockchain in Healthcare Platform Approaches Special Issue, Volume 7, Issue 1, 2024, we share valuable insights based on specific use cases to provide healthcare executives with a nuanced understanding. Several open-access recordings are available, providing a glimpse into the wealth of knowledge and insights shared to advance the business of health with blockchain technology. Recognizing the need for a paradigm shift, we explore topical subjects and cases with various thought leaders in the field.
