BURST IQ & CONNETIX HEALTH Announce The First App To Record Personal Health Data On The Blockchain

BurstIQ and Connetix have teamed up to create the first blockchain-based application to record personal medical data. The set of products combines the blockchain platform to integrate BurstIQ and the health market with the next generation PHR (personal health record) technology of Connetix Health, mCharts. The partnership allows users to automatically collect and manage medical records.

Earlier this year, BurstIQ released its SDK platform and opened its developer community in a private beta program, and Connetix Health is one of the first companies to take advantage of its market-leading blockchain ecosystem. The Connetix Health PHR app, mCharts, allows users to automatically download records from medical providers to BurstIQ’s highly secure big data blockchain, BurstChain. The mCharts distributed application is a first of its kind solution that allows users to create and maintain a universal view of health status, providing sharing and monetization for the specific benefit of the user owning the data. Using the standard API of the BurstIQ platform, Connetix was able to integrate the mCharts application into the platform in less than two weeks.

In addition to integrating mCharts with BurstChain, the companies announced a joint marketing partnership allowing companies to sell a combined set of products to customers.
