I just don’t see it. I can see how blockchain is better than the banks, improving efficiencies and removing middle men etc but facilitating dentists reviews? If this was truely needed it woukd have been done in a different way by now. It’s not like people have been sat there thinking ‘we really need this dental review thing but there is just no way to make it work’.
I may be wrong but I feel that this is another example of something/ someone jumping on the blockchain band wagon in an attempt to look relevant.
Actually if you look into the entire Peer Review system that is the foundation of trust within our scientific communities, you will discover that they are acknowledging a very real and serious issue with centralised reviews of all kinds.
Money is buying power and can control reviews etc. I have a close contact with someone who owned her own dental clinic and spoke often to the corruption and problems she would face with dentists chasing $$ by "drilling & filling" rather then making care and prevention the focus.
I totally understand that you may not see the need for it, but I can say for sure that I do from my experience with dentistry and the medical community in general!
We need to be able to trust implicitly in our medical professionals, but with the industry so profit-driven and greed having its way, its just not possible right now.
Purely my opinion and by no means do i insist its the truth. :)
