2021 Blockchain Predictions for Healthcare

In 2020, there was a great push toward building and adopting digital, decentralized blockchain technology with a layer of cognitive AI. In 2021, we hope to see the Affordable Care Act influence high quality care delivered at lower costs while maintaining focus on population health, personalized health, and preventative health leveraging technologies, such as AI, data science, and blockchain with patient-centric applications.

This year will be the era of collaboration through efficient technologies with an open science ecosystem, building on collaborative theories of knowledge production. In 2021, technology will combine to focus on the ‘Care’ in healthcare.

More importantly, 2021 will be the year of technology taking the center stage in health care systems with policymakers creating new frameworks so that payers, providers, and pharma companies can leverage these technologies to deliver results while building new publiic–private partnerships (PPP). The research authors have enumerated details the technology’s impact and their expectations for 2021
