Poster: Blockchain Application Feasibility in Telehealth for DSCSA Compliance

Interest in blockchain applications for supply chain management is on the rise. Recent regulatory relief enabling telehealth expansion across the United States, coupled with drug tracking requirements mandated by the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), necessitates an evidence-based understanding of feasible blockchain applications for the DSCSA-compliant tracking of drugs prescribed to remote patients who use personal devices to access telehealth. The purpose of this project is twofold: first, to identify use cases for DSCSA-compliant blockchain applications for telehealth and second, to formulate stakeholder recommendations with regard to policy and technical issues surrounding the current regulatory framework for blockchain applications in health care.
