Healthcare Research & Analytics (HRA®), a consultative healthcare market research practice, will host a webinar, “Blockchain’s Implications for Healthcare,” featuring Steven W. Teppler, attorney; Bitcoin/ Blockchain expert, Abbott Law Group, on Feb. 8 at 1 p.m. EST.

“We are stepping into a new era of healthcare management and need to consider the application of blockchain in our daily professional lives,” said Ennen. “Healthcare institutions house a sizeable amount of patient data, which creates needless obstacles because it cannot be accessed by the patients and sometimes by other institutions. During this webinar, we will discuss the advantages of blockchain and ways they help create a more patient-centric environment.”

As an attorney with the Abbott Law Group, Steve W. Teppler leads the firm’s electronic discovery and technology-related class action and mass tort litigation. Additionally, he teaches electronic discovery and information governance as an adjunct professor at the Nova Southeastern Law School. Steven also holds six patents in the field of content authentication and is the founding co-chair of the American Bar association’s Internet of Things Committee.

“Blockchain’s Implications for Healthcare” is an educational webinar that introduces the concept of blockchain and analyzes its use in the healthcare arena. The webinar will discuss key topics including the interoperability between institutions and patients. Attendees will also learn from real-life application scenarios, which they can implement in their practices to improve patient-centricity, drug development and managed care.
