FlexiTestPort

Patient-centered, privacy protected testing framework leveraging blockchains and distributed data storage to run a point of care or home test. Objectives are to increase safety for both patients and doctors, to reduce the lead time around current processes, to have identity based provenance, consumer-based consent based data share and de-identified reporting and a privacy-protected minimal proof of safety for use in a possible passport.

Solution Highlights

1. The Presentation Demonstration and GitHub illustrations vividly explain the issues experienced in real-world issues we faced

   The enterprise systems and processes exposed limitations in availability, staffing and hence timely availability of results even after testing results were available.

   Gaps in telehealth systems for full auditability / traceability and non-repudiation as more businesses are relying on these test results.

   Issues around accountability, transparency, speediness, and privacy protected reporting of de-identified , aggregated numbers for public health use.

   And the realization that re-opening of the economy and wide-spread high scale SAFE testing are 2 sides of the same coin.

The opportunities to solve these real world problems

 - To increase not just patient safety ,but doctor/health worker safety.

 - To have a key tool for safe re-opening of the economy with privacy based minimalistic proof needed for overall safety yet protecting civil liberties.

2.The solution addresses the primary goal of the hackathon to solve the real world problems identified

 - by leveraging decentralization based technologies including IPFS, the ethereum blockchain to prove existence of key data and metadata across organizations for an audit-ready yet privacy protected designs based on the ethereum stack 

 - by using components already available in the blockchain ecosystem including DID specifications and components, 
 secure distributed file storage systems

3. The solution addresses the gaps in current systems

   - by having key cross-organizational patient data/ meta-data secured for accountability, and cryptographically secured data to quickly send information between parties in the teletext workflow reducing delays
   
   - allowing whichever parties who are covered entities that have the consented data to report to public health without delays
   
   - de-identifying personal data and also reducing chances of re-identification 
   

4. The solution entails innovative elements to

   - incorporate standards like FHIR in to the solution for the business objects
   
   - use Zero Knowledge proof designs and to design the arithmetic circuits to find if the user has been tested, and the status of their test results to the checker archetype in a minimalistic proof.

The Checker is an abstraction and could include individuals or organizations such as airport authorities, event management authorities, law enforcement or any such organization who has gained and can prove the verifier status.
