Pratiwi Kusumaningtyas: Cura Network is a global decentralized health system

Definition of Health according to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1948 states that the notion of health is as “a state of physical, mental, and social well-being and not just the absence of a disease or weakness”

In 1986, WHO, in the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, said that the notion of health is “a resource for everyday life, not a life goal Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical abilities.

A healthy lifestyle is an important tool for seeing, satisfying aspirations in all areas of activity. Health is wealth, according to research conducted in most recognized educational institutions in many countries around the world, so in order to enjoy natural parks, workplaces and other places for recreation, everyone must remain healthy

We believe that everyone in the world has to be aware of healthiness himself or herself, no matter how old we are, how fat we are, or even how tall we are. However, in reality, most of the people would be likely aware their health situation until they get sick, serious illness, abnormal state or other forms in terms of “illness” instead of trying to prevent in earlier stage.

Join us in the revolution to build a global decentralized health care system with a distributed blockchain that facilitates handling and sharing your data in a secure and explicit manner, having access to your records instantly. Your location is no longer a barrier to where and how you manage your health. Manage your health records seamlessly across institutions.

Video Introduction :

Cura Network is a global decentralized health system comprising of entities collaborating and sharing data with each other to promote, restore or maintain health
We aim to improve the healthcare universe by making use of blockchain technology to create a unified platform that will power a plethora of health services.
In the end, our goal is to integrate patients, specialists, providers and third-party app developers, into a blockchain ecosystem, which will make health transactions truly efficient, secure, explicit, fast and reliable.

VISION

FEATURES

Quality Healthcare - Access to quality healthcare from vetted specialists and providers across the globe.

Privacy & Access Control — Have ownership and control over your health records. Understand and determine how your data is being shared.

Global Decentralized Identity — Each entity is given a Cura Network Identity (CNID) representing an on-chain self-sovereign identity with unique role based attributes.

Distributed Storage of Records — Cost savings in storage. High efficiency in data transfer with persistent availability. Simultaneous data delivery across multiple computers.

Third-party App Integrations — Data access layer for a plethora of existing or new health software applications.

Equitable Economy — Inbuilt monetization at the very core. Earn Curs in an equitable system for data or services shared.

CN CLIENT APP

With our light-weight mobile application, you can manage everything. Anyone with a smartphone and an internet connection can participate in our global network.

Connecting to Cura Network Connecting to Cura Network — Entities will primarily have access to our blockchain network via our mobile client application protected by fingerprint lock on mainstream smartphone platforms. During initialization of the mobile application, the user will be taken through a basic KYC process requiring verifiable credentials and extras depending on the intended role of the entity (Patient, Specialist, or App Developer). A private/public key pair will be generated alongside a global Cura Network Identity (CNID). All operations ranging from permissions and role management to API key request for a new app by a developer, will be managed within Cura Network’s mobile application.

Identities — Each entity on the network will have a unique on-chain self-sovereign identity with unique role based attributes. To create a self-sovereign digital identity, an entity is given a Cura Network Identity (CNID) which is a unique digital identifier along with a cryptographic public/private key pair managed by our mobile client. The CNID is a prefixed hash of the public key on our distributed blockchain

Interaction Between Entities — Cura Network will feature a request/approval system to data access across all entities. Hence, interaction between entities on a base level borders around read/write operations that either broadcast new snapshots or retrieve health data on the network. Further social interactions could be achieved in multiple ways by health applications powered by the network.

Conducting a Transaction — Conducting a Transaction — A transaction is a write operation to the blockchain which is signed by the private key of a user with a valid CNID. A transaction is broadcasted to the network, processed by block producers, and if valid, is published on the blockchain. Only specialists can change the state of health records of patients

Storage of Health Records — We can achieve decentralized storage of health records by leveraging the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). IPFS is a peer-to-peer distributed file system that seeks to connect all computing devices with the same system of files. A snapshot is taken and stored immutably in the storage smart contract on a blockchain each time a patient’s record is updated during a permissioned session. Each snapshot holds the IPFS hash identifier of the hosted health data. By maintaining snapshots in a time series pattern on our blockchain, we have a versioned history of changes in a patient’s health data.

Cur — This is the currency of the Cura Network; the primary medium of exchange of health data between identities on the network. Cur is also a reward system for active nodes in the network. Cur currently implements ERC20 token standard of the Ethereum network. This will last through the crowdsale process, after which obtained Cur tokens will be swapped for the native currency on Cura Network’s own blockchain network at a rate yet to be determined.
