Yesterday it was announced that five leading healthcare providers have signed up to use a new blockchain credentialing system from ProCredEx. The aim is to resolve the administrative inefficiencies in healthcare credentialing by using distributed ledger technology (DLT). The solution aims to connect existing credentialing systems.
