healthbank is privileged to be working with a strong group of partners to deliver the healthbank platform for its members. As a cooperative, which is owned by the people, controlled by the people, serving the people, they recognise the need for strategic partnerships. Here are some of the most notable partners already on board with healthbank.

RISE

The Research Industrial Systems Engineering (RISE) is an international IT provider with experience in IT infrastructure, strategy, software development, smart piloting, and project management. They work primarily in the eHealth and security sectors, making it a logical partnership for healthbank. RISE are specialists in e-health systems that are both secure and scalable. They have a strong background in building national e-health systems, including Austria’s ELGA and Germany’s ‘telematics infrastructure’.

RISE built the secure and scalable infrastructure that makes healthbank’s data storage possible. healthbank will benefit from a secure infrastructure with many opportunities for growth as a result of this.

“healthbank is a step in the right direction for e-health systems everywhere. We are happy to be able to support this vision.” — RISE

Sanovation

Sanovation is an award-winning company founded in 2011. In their short time, they have pioneered a new pain tracking app, CatchMyPain, which helps chronic pain sufferers to track their symptoms. The company behind CatchMyPain was a natural choice for a partnership with healthbank. With Sanovation’s growing database of health data, they know a thing or two about how to build trust.

healthbank users will have access to the CatchMyPain app, and CatchMyPain users will have access to the wider services offered by healthbank. Users will approach healthbank like a smartphone, adding the apps they need to make the most of their experience and to make the most out of managing their very own health data. CatchMyPain is just one of the apps that users will have access to. As healthbank expands, more apps and services will be added, offering a more comprehensive health tracking experience for users.

“Our platform was built with the health of the end user in mind and we are happy to see this ethos reflected in healthbank.” Sanovation

ReHaptix

Visiting a physiotherapist for upper limb impairments can be expensive. ReHaptix replaces the need for costly visits by offering clinically validated tests to measure and rehabilitate patients with disabilities due to stroke, multiple sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease. Using touchscreen technology, users are tasked with tracing shapes or completing rapid and repetitive movements. Their performance is tracked over time, allowing patients, family and health care professionals to identify improving or worsening conditions.

This innovative technology made ReHaptix an ideal candidate for a partnership with healthbank. healthbank users can access ReHaptix tests to promote condition prevention in addition to rehabilitation, and their data is stored safely and securely.

“We are very proud to be able to offer the ReHaptix services to healthbank users and we anticipate that our members will benefit greatly from the services offered by healthbank.” ReHaptix

Advancience

Advancience uses gamification to deliver psychometric testing in human resources and medical environments. In the medical setting, patients can use their AI-enhanced diagnostic profiles to enhance and accelerate medical diagnoses. The platform can be used to detect conditions such as ADHD and Alzheimer’s.

All Advanscience user data will be safely secured on the healthbank platform, if the user wishes so. Advanscience users will also have access to all of the other health services offered by healthbank. This partnership allows healthbank to expand their user base while offering a secure infrastructure to Advanscience users.

“Our users will greatly benefit from the long-term storage offered by healthbank. In addition, we anticipate many will make use of the incredible opportunities offered by healthbank.” Advancience

Thryve

Thryve enables access to over 200+ health monitoring and wearable devices through a single API, providing the user access to their multiple devices through one platform. This gives health services a more comprehensive view of their patient’s health like never before, leading to better and more personalised care.

Thryve is the harmonising and unifying force behind healthbank, allowing users to change their wearables without worrying about losing access to their data. healthbank users will be able to switch wearables with confidence knowing that their health data tracking won’t be interrupted and no data will be lost. Even more exciting, Thryve helps the users to interpret the data, for example taking heart rate data and interpreting it towards sleep quality and stress levels.

“With healthbank, we have found the perfect partner for the future of health data. The fact that healthbank is completely neutral and organised as a cooperative is perfectly in line with our vision of an empowered patient.” Paul Burggraf — Thryve

Galenica

Operating the biggest pharma logistics company as well as one of the largest networks of pharmacies in Switzerland, Galenica was the natural choice for a strategic partnership. healthbank isn’t only about digital companies existing in a virtual space and recognised the importance of physical entities to healthcare provisions.

Through the Amavita pharmacy network, healthbank users will be able to use the e-medication plan and e-prescription to access manage their medication more effectively. In the long-term, healthbank hopes to roll out this service to users in other countries as well.

“The cooperation with healthbank is very important in a number of ways. First of all it provides a sustainable, safe, and secure solution on behalf of the patient with regards to his healthcare data. Secondly it also helps us to understand much better how to bring together technology and traditional processes in pragmatic and tangible ways.” Galencia

Due to increased networking and the entry of new players in the FFANG era (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Google) into the health market, statutory health insurance and state administration (first health market) and privately financed health services (second health market) are being expanded by a form of cooperation. The third health market is created by the merging of the first and second. The first health market is privately financed by the state and comprises statutory and private insurance services. Private financed health services (out-of-pocket payments) characterise the second health market, whereas the third health market is formed by a share economy.

Zug, Switzerland — January 23, 2019 — healthbank, a cooperative organization that offers a safe, secure and compliant ecosystem to store, manage and exchange personal health data, is announcing that it is participating in the 4Generations project at Elementa Day School in Neuheim, Switzerland.

4Generations is an intergenerational project involving students in levels 5 and 6, innovative technology companies and the elderly. The project is supported by Generation 65 Plus and helps students learn modern skills such as programming, while also giving the elderly an opportunity to learn from youth about the latest innovations.

“There is a shortage of skilled workers in the information, communications, and technology (ICT) sector and we believe that to counteract this we should start educating students about these topics early,” said Monica Roth, CEO of Elementa Day School.

“With technology advancing so quickly, it’s easy for people to fall behind if they do not make a true effort to understand all the fantastic tools that we have available to us today. healthbank is proud to be participating in this great initiative,” said Daniela Gunz, Director of Research Partnerships for healthbank. “All of the technologies that were selected for this project are truly making people’s lives better and opening up new opportunities for those in the later stages of life to lead their lives more autonomously.”

The number of people in the world over the age of 60 is expected to more than double by 2050 and more than triple by 2100. This means that 962 million individuals in 2017 could grow to as much as 3.1 billion by 2100.
(source: https://www.statista.com/statistics/265759/world-population-by-age-and-region/)

“We asked healthbank to join the project because the product can help people to live a better life. Health costs are growing and more and more people living longer,” explains Ulrike Liebert, CEO of Generation 65 Plus. “This and other factors are having a tremendous impact on the cost of healthcare, but technology is enabling us to better overcome these challenges.”

Throughout the world, living independently in the later stages of life is becoming increasingly prelevant.

healthbank enables users to own and control their own health records while providing continuity in record data that is not always possible with traditional, siloed or paper-based systems. Health data can also be integrated from multiple sources, including from wearable technology into the total picture of health.

“The main stakeholder, the patient, normally has no active role in how their health data is managed. We are changing this — and we believe that the older generations should also be empowered with these kinds of tools,” added Daniela Gunz.

healthbank was named the top security token offering (STO) project at the inaugural Security Tokens Realised conference.

Karsten Stampa, COO of healthbank believes that it was a combination of healthbank’s great technology, an established user base, the strong team and the fact that healthbank has already secured more than CHF 3.2 millions in funding.

The Fintech Times wrote an article about the fact that healthbank won Top STO at Security Token… was originally published in healthbank on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

Following the launch of the private sale, healthbank has seen overwhelming interest from investors. The company is now gearing up for the main sale, which goes live in February 2019. In order to understand why healthbank is such a strong investment option, we first have to understand some fundamental facts about the way the company was formed and how the STO has been implemented.

Why is healthbank running an STO?

Security token offerings are growing in popularity within the cryptocurrency industry. By the end of 2018, STOs had helped to generate over $300 billion in investment for new companies while offering investors the chance to get in on the ground floor of exciting new projects. For healthbank, this represents a huge opportunity to generate funds to improve the existing platform and expand the offering to a global audience.

Security token offerings (STO) differ from initial coin offerings (ICO) in many ways. At the core of the offering, when investors take a chance on an ICO, they are often purchasing a utility token which has functionality within a specific ecosystem. In the case of STOs, the investor will have access to equity rights as they are investing in a security asset.

In healthbank’s case, the company has gone one step further to ensure their investors derive real value from their investment. Investing in healthbank is a long-term investment, intended to bring long-term benefit to the token holders, and therefore investors will benefit from regular dividends from the platform. Following the STO, the HBE tokens are planned to be traded, which means their value will follow market price.

healthbank has a solid track record of financial performance and it is predicted the company will grow by a factor of 12 over the next four years. This offers investors a solid and realistic return on their investment both short-term and long-term. The app already has more than 200,000 users and the very infrastructure has been designed to be secure and scalable. The platform has already benefited from over 3.2 million CHF in funding and has secured an impressive advisory board and list of partners.

Are STOs really better?

One of the main problems plaguing the cryptocurrency market at the moment is fraudulent activity. The low barriers to entry are a good thing for genuine companies that want to use ICOs as a means of crowdfunding their venture. However, these low barriers to entry make it easier for criminals to set up ICOs and defraud people out of their hard-earned money. STOs are different.

In the past, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has stepped in to block ICOs which should have been operating as STOs in order to sidestep regulations. STOs are protected by federal law and therefore subject to regulations. This significantly lowers the risk for those considering investing in an STO. When selling a security, the market is pre-regulated and recognised by governments around the world. This quite simply means that if a seller isn’t playing by the rules, they cannot sell their security token. These regulations bring STOs in line with any other tradable financial assets.

STOs offer other benefits, including hard-coded compliance and a worldwide reach . What this means is that KYC regulations are built into the process, which results in a more secure STO for everyone involved.

Futures collide

healthbank is the future of health data management. And STOs are the future of crowdfunding. With its strong track record of investment and incredible platform, healthbank is offering a solid investment opportunity for those interested in the future of health apps and secure data management.

Unlike other tech companies, healthbank isn’t looking to capitalise on data mining. Instead, they are putting control back into the hands of the people who own the data. With end-to-end encryption, healthbank is a popular choice for those who want to consolidate their health app data without having their data sold against their will. healthbank predicts that the global market for digital health is worth around $7 trillion per year, which makes it a ripe industry for investment.

How do I get involved?

Getting involved with the healthbank STO offers so much in return. Participants will have access to annual dividends, access to the healthbank cooperative and access to the platform if required. As a company owned by the people, controlled by the people, serving the people, healthbank is disrupting the health industry for the better.

If you would like to be considered for access to the pre-sale, head to the healthbank website and fill in the form. If you are interested in the main sale, this will go live on the 28th of February 2019. As part of the purchase process, you will be asked to fill out KYC information as part of the simple sign up process.

There is a problem today with poor management and protection of patient health data. The way data are collected and stored creates many problems across the health ecosystem. For example:

• Data errors are painful for everyone. Data often need to get entered over and over in different systems that don’t connect with each other. Every time the same data point is entered is a new chance for an error to be made (spelling mistake, transposed numbers, entering data into the wrong field in an online form, etc.) These errors slow down processes as steps need to be redone. They can also cause health workers to make incorrect evaluations of patients.
• Healthcare providers are woefully under-equipped to protect sensitive patient data. Hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, insurers, and other players in the health ecosystem have huge databases of sensitive patient data including names, addresses, medications prescribed, health diagnoses, etc. These databases need to be protected from cyberattacks, malware, and other threats. But most firms lack the sophisticated security expertise necessary to ensure the protection of sensitive data. As a result, breaches of health data continue to rise and malware attacks are getting more intense.
• Compliance is a nightmare. Health players need to show governments and regulatory bodies that they’re in compliance with local and national regulations regarding patient data. Unfortunately, the time it takes to report on that compliance is significant and there is a large cost associated with compliance. Additionally, as regulations change frequently, healthcare providers struggle to keep up and ensure they are in fact compliant.

Blockchain-Based Data Platforms Like healthbank Will Solve The Data Problem

New ways of capturing and storing data will be possible with blockchain technology. healthbank’s blockchain solution will allow data to be stored independently of the firms using the data, with patients controlling access themselves. As providers will access the data via blockchain, today’s challenges will be solved and the entire healthcare market benefits as:

• Data entry errors get significantly reduced. As companies forgo constantly re-entering data and rely on a single trusted source for each data point, data errors will decline sharply. The data also will be stored in the healthbank platform, with users giving explicit consent for different data points to be shared. A single version of the truth means fewer mistakes — resulting in lower costs for health businesses and higher satisfaction for patients.
• Less patient data means lower cybersecurity threats (and worries.) Without large databases of patient data to attract hackers, health providers will have a lower security threat profile overall and an improved ability to protect themselves from the remaining threats. They’ll spend less on security as they’ll have fewer data assets to protect.
• Compliance becomes easier and less expensive. With a blockchain-based solution, companies will have time-stamped, highly secured and auditable records for all of their dealings. This means instead of going through multiple systems to find the right reporting information, companies can more easily and quickly find their proof of compliance to report to authorities. Needless to say that no data will ever be shared without the explicit consent of the user, which in turn is going to be recorded in a blockchain approach.

How Blockchain Delivers The Data Solution In Ways Other Technologies Can’t

There are multiple technologies currently in the market, and many of them are also trying to solve the data problem. What makes blockchain a better option compared to other technologies? healthbank’s platform will take advantage of blockchain’s many strengths to bring the benefits described above.

• Public/private keys to control the data. Blockchain uses cryptography, a system for protecting data using “keys” — random strings of numbers based on mathematical computations where the answers cannot easily be reversed engineered. No data can be shared unless the private key owned by the patient and the public key randomly generated by the cryptography match and are “signed” by the patient/key owner. This means that someone who knows the public key can’t figure out who the patient is and can’t figure out what the person’s private key is. The patient is the ultimate arbiter of who can see the data because only the private key owner can conduct a transaction.
• Hashes make it simple to verify data sources and changes. When data are entered into the system, they are encrypted. The blockchain system generates hashes (random alphanumeric strings like the ones used for keys) for the data. If the data changes or someone attempts to otherwise alter a data point or transaction, the hash will no longer be valid — alerting everyone that a change happened (but not the details of what changed.) And in everyday situations where there is no foulplay, but there is a valid change (like someone’s address changing or a patient no longer takes a particular medication) then the hash is no longer valid and the fact that the hash changed is communicated to affected parties. Those parties can then go ask for access to the updated information.
• Distributed ledgers to ensure transparency and auditability. Unlike corporate systems where there is only one database, blockchain solutions use “distributed ledgers” or multiple replications of the same database in order to bring trust into the system. Since there are multiple copies, someone can’t simply hack one database — it would no longer match the other copies and it would become obvious that someone tampered with the data. (Keep in mind that the multiple ledgers or “nodes” are all encrypted and the data are only visible with the public/private key pairs once the owner gives consent.) The distributed ledgers also meticulously track and timestamp all transactions, so for auditing and compliance purposes, all parties can easily prove when transactions happened and that the transactions were compliant with GDPR and other regulations that govern data.
• Smart contracts automate many of the mundane parts of data sharing. Smart contracts are if-then statements that can self-execute as long as the pre-defined criteria are met. For example, in the instance of an address change as mentioned above, the healthbank system can have smart contracts that stipulate as long as a patient has given consent for a healthcare provider to see certain information, that the consent is automatically also transferred over to the new address. This reduces the need for a patient to remember to contact the provider and let them know of the address change. It also removes the provider’s need to do a massive annual data update process with patients as data and thus creates a much more dynamic consent than the current solutions.

healthbank is committed to blockchain as the best way to solve a few of today’s data problems. Not only does it bring a solid technical solution, but it also allows users to have control over data in ways that aren’t possible with other technologies.

healthbank’s strategy to adapt to blockchain technology follows the path to adapt to mature components that step-by-step decentralize without risking scalability and security. Therefore healthbank has focused on privacy-by-design-and-default principles right from the beginning. As blockchain implementations begin to emerge and scale, the next step in the evolution of decentralization will happen. healthbank is working toward this directly by building on public blockchain and incorporating smart contracts.

Patient data will not be stored on a public blockchain — that’s definitely not privacy by design! However, healthbank doesn’t want to build unnecessary technical siloes and so they believe in using public blockchain where possible and feasible given business needs and privacy demands, focusing private blockchains where they’re required.

Trust, transparency, and automated execution of business rules among health ecosystem members benefit everyone — patients, providers, insurers, and auditors. And ultimately, the technology is only there to solve the greater purpose — making patients more active participants in their own care and allowing health providers to offer better care as they can focus on using relevant data without being distracted by data problems.

Why — and More Importantly, How — Blockchain Solves The Health Data Problem was originally published in healthbank on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

In the second week of January 2019 Tincture published a great article that summarized all of the major data breaches that occurred in 2018 and the astonishing number of data attacks that have happened since 2005.

Reading the article, it becomes clear that most of the companies do not prioritize investments in security infrastructure and training until it’s too late. In addition, it is easy to understand that our personal data is at risk daily and we should care about how companies deal with our data.

As it turns out, hackers often steal data to forge credentials to buy medical equipment, prescription medications, or to use patient information to file false claims with insurers. However, a reliable solution that could be implemented and adopted is blockchain. Blockchains utilize security measures like end-to-end encryption, cryptographic hashing, timestamps, trestles verification, and public/private key encryption to keep our data safe.

Introduction to the article: “An outlook on data privacy” by Tincture was originally published in healthbank on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

Corporate responsibility is something we cannot afford to ignore any longer. 66% of customers will pay more for a product that they consider to be sustainable, and employees working for a company with strong corporate social responsibility are up to 13% more motivated than their counterparts.

The cooperative business model is one that is proving effectiveness with consumers, employees and business owners alike. What started as a reaction to the tensions spurred on by the Industrial revolution in mid 19th Century Britain has now become the structure for a number of organisations spanning trade, agriculture, banking and insurance — and in healthbank’s case: digital health.

What is a cooperative?

In a cooperative, the business is owned by its members. The members can be both employees and customers. Rather than having shareholders or investors, a cooperative is accountable to its members. The members have a say in the running of the company and also enjoy a share of the profits. This means that key decisions are made by the people who will be most impacted by the outcome.

In Switzerland alone, there are now over 9,600 cooperatives. In addition to this, over half of the population is a member of either Coop or Migros. These two supermarket cooperatives control over 50% of the retail market in Switzerland. Not only has Switzerland embraced the historic principles of the cooperative, but the country has also become a breeding ground for cryptocurrency culture. This collision of old world business principles with modern day innovation might seem like an odd pairing, but the two ideas have a lot more in common than what separates them.

healthbank is one example of a cooperative. Its members are the people who invest in the platform and those that use it to store their health data. The primary benefit for members is that they are empowered to take control of their health data. It is owned by the people, controlled by the people, serving the people. The difference between a cooperative and a traditional business model is that the data gathered on the platform is owned by the individual. Many companies seek to gather and monetize the data they hold, but healthbank has no such intentions. Instead, the data is owned by the user, who is also free to monetise it if they wish.

How does a cooperative benefit the users?

The cooperative is a proven business model with success stories all over the world.

When it comes to the digital era and data management, a cooperative might set an interesting counterbalance to the big tech firms and data brokers that are already using and sharing people’s data — very often without their knowledge or consent. As we’ve seen with large companies like Facebook, managing data is a huge responsibility and the consequences of betraying the trust of your users can be catastrophic.

healthbank is changing the way the world views data. Data should never be owned by companies but instead should be in the hands of the user. When it comes to health data, there is so much potential for research and health care optimisations, but these opportunities will never be realised as long as individuals believe that large companies are profiting from their data.

By running healthbank as a cooperative, it is hoped that this will resolve any issues of mistrust around data management. While other companies might seek to monetise the user data, healthbank users retain ownership of their data.

By creating a company that that is owned by the people, controlled by the people and serving the people, it is hoped that healthbank will be able to change the conversation on data management for good.

How does healthbank’s cooperative benefit the user?

There are a two things where we believe that the user benefits directly from the cooperative business model.

Firstly, healthbank helps individuals to take control of their health data. With so much suspicion surrounding how data is managed, and occasionally mismanaged, it makes sense that patients would look for a way to keep their data safe. healthbank is built on a neutral, independent and safe data infrastructure. healthbank chose to operate as a cooperative as this is the best business model to match their goals of making health data management safe, trustworthy and empowering.

Additionally, healthbank cooperative is owned by its members who can directly influence the business’ strategy by having the right to vote. The cooperative model is highly democratic as one member has only one vote, which ensures that no capital driven investor can influence the direction of the business by himself but would rather have to convince the members of a meaningful direction.

The cooperative model is also growing in popularity with companies hoping to raise funds through ICOs and STOs. An ICO or initial coin offering is a way of fundraising in an unregulated environment by offering a cryptocurrency token which can then be retained or traded. ICOs perfectly reflect a “crowd-funding” initiative in a strong community that fits perfectly to a cooperative

An STO or security token offering is similar to an ICO, but is backed by tangible assets, such as equity, stock or even profits in the company, and is a way of fundraising in an often very well regulated environment. This model incentivises individuals to care about the success and future of the company. By blending the founding principles of the cooperative with the modern day aspects of an STO, we arrive at something that is decentralised and democratic. Individuals can earn membership by participating in the STO and purchasing tokens, which are linked to shares.

In order to become a member of the healthbank cooperative, individuals have to purchase a certain number of HBE tokens. These shares entitle them to financial equity and annual dividends.

To summarize this all: As an organisation that is dealing with highly personal data, trust is key to success. By operating as a cooperative, trust is inherently built into the core offering.

The healthbank Cooperative: What is it and how does it benefit the user? was originally published in healthbank on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

The global healthcare system will face more challenges this year, factors such as new treatment options, demographic changes, a stronger focus on health and well-being, as well as widely accessible information on diagnostics and therapies together with AI in health care are fast moving changes which need to be implemented in various ways by various companies.
All these data are stored in different silos, mostly not connected with each other. healthbank is breaking down those data silos by storing them securely on one platform and, if the individual user so desires, shares those data with doctors, specialists or makes them available for research purposes. This saves extensive costs. Studies (e.g. by Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research) speak of several hundred billion dollars, which could be saved in the health system in the USA alone. Having all that data on one secure platform will also improve therapy opportunities as the specialists will have a holistic health profile of the patient.

healthbank’s innovative team will continue to drive its master plan forward this year
“Over the next 12 months, we will focus on two things: First, we will continue the seamless integration of health services and partner apps (like we did with our partners Thryve, Galenica and Sanovation in 2018) as well as expanding disease specific ecosystems (e.g. Diabetes, Stroke and others) together with big players in the market. Secondly, we will be further expanding our services internationally. Initial steps have been taken in Germany, USA and the Middle East” explains Reto Schegg, CEO of healthbank.

On February 28th we will launch our STO (more information on www.healthbank.info). “The Secure Token financing allows us to expand healthbank to other countries and generate new users and especially speed up our platform development,” says Karsten Stampa, COO/CFO of healthbank. “This will enable us to transport the philosophy and values of the Swiss cooperative to other countries and to allow the healthbank ecosystem to continue to flourish”.

A glimpse into the future
“The goal of healthbank is to support 10 million active users in five years’ time,” explains Stampa. For the establishment and operation of healthbank in Switzerland and other countries, more employees will have to be recruited, says Stampa. “We are looking at having a significant increase of staff count, depending on how intensively and quickly we roll out our services”.
