New Study Investigates the Role of Blockchain-Based Data Capture & Crypto Incentives in Improving Patient Outcomes MMUST, the premier technology and innovation university in Kenya, and Immunify.Life, a transformative and self-sustaining healthcare ecosystem secured by blockchain, has entered into a partnership that will leverage MMUST’s academic and research prowess and the advanced tech infrastructure of Immunify.Life to address the issue of poor patient data collection, patient relapses, and misaligned incentives with a specific focus on HIV-positive patients in Kenya. In the innovative new study, Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology (MMUST) and Immunify.Life will use blockchain technology to redesign health data capture, transmission, and sharing processes as well as treatment incentives to improve the health outcomes of HIV-positive patients in Kenya. This will be a 5-year collaborative effort, with the major goal being to improve patient outcomes and strengthen the performance of the Kenyan healthcare system. By carefully designing clinical studies in different regions across Kenya and addressing key healthcare challenges faced by some of the country’s most vulnerable populations, MMUST and Immunify.Life hopes to accurately identify the risk factors, causes, and obstacles faced by HIV patients in contracting HIV, receiving treatment, and adhering to their care regimens.
