The key objective of the XDC-based dApp is to connect patients directly with doctors and paramedics in a secure and decentralized ecosystem.

XDC Contributing To Healthcare
Certain healthcare services encompass shortcomings that weigh down the overall grade of the industry. Often, untimely medical support or doctor consultation is stated as one of the foremost reasons for losing lives during medical emergencies. During pandemics like COVID-19, the suffering and losses were manifold.
Consequently, the need for solutions spurred the adoption of accessible online consultations worldwide. Despite the process being eased, this initiative included a disadvantage – the lowered security of the patient’s data. To this issue, blockchain technology emerges as an effective solution.
Every database on the patient’s medical history – from details of diagnosis to treatment – can be stored on the immutable and highly secure blockchain technology. Plugin ECA facilitates the precise storage of data onto the XDC Network that utilizes a novel consensus XDPoS. Moreover, the network is on the verge of upgrading the consensus system to its latest XDPoS2.0.
Notably, the native token of XDC Network displayed a 5% spike in its price. According to CMC, XDC traded at $0.042 with a market capitalization of over $583 million.
