Mission
The mission of this group is to focus on problems related to healthcare patients and to facilitate understanding and adoption of distributed ledger technologies within healthcare payer industry by identifying specific opportunities where the application of blockchain technologies can be meaningful.
Identify specific opportunities where the application of blockchain technologies can advance the state of the healthcare industry
Provide a foundation for real world use case identification, blockchain technology alignment, and operational validation of technology fit for purpose
Provide recommendations for the ethical use and implications of blockchain technologies
Promote the community education of, and participation in blockchain technologies, policies, and protocols
Serve as an open channel of communications between the membership of this Special Interest Group and the leadership of Hyperledger to inform leadership on prospective improvements of Hyperledger frameworks and toolsets, within the context of the healthcare industry

TSC Working Group UpdatesScope
In Scope
The scope of the HLHC-SIG shall include:
The identification, development, and promotion of use cases, pilots, proofs of concept (POCs), proofs of value (POVs), and in certain cases, minimum viable products (MVPs) to educate and demonstrate the value of applicable blockchain technologies solutions in healthcare. Some examples of in-scope capability areas include, but are not limited to:
Distributed patient trust tools using self-sovereign identity (SSI)
Incentivization using tokenization and/or cryptocurrency technologies to encourage member participation within a blockchain technologies-enabled solution
Interoperability solutions using distributed ledger technologies (DLT) to interconnect with datasets longitudinally across disparate healthcare systems
The identification, documentation, and promotion of blockchain technologies solutions best practices, as applied in a healthcare industry context
The sharing of stories within and across membership boundaries: successes, failures, lessons learned, opportunities and challenges
The identification of existing or needed common critical software components as they relate to blockchain solutions that would address the particular needs of the healthcare industry
The identification and promotion of conferences or related social networking opportunities (e.g., speaking engagements) to gain experiences outside of this Special Interest Group
The identification and promotion of healthcare industry and related challenges and competitions designed to convene team(s) internal to this Special Interest Group for the purposes of driving focus and common purpose to a goal(s) recognized as beneficial to the whole of the Special Interest Group
The education of both membership and the community on blockchain technologies, policies, and protocols as they relate to the healthcare industry
The HLHC-SIG may form subgroups or task forces to support, emphasize, or promote any of those items listed above.
Out Of Scope
The scope of the HLHC-SIG shall exclude:
The development and/or implementation of any production-ready system or service, as the resource needs for robust production-level integration and testing are out of scope of this Special Interest Group
The development and/or promotion of a Special Interest Group solution that utilizes, or otherwise relies upon, intellectual property (IP) that cannot be shared under the licensing provisions as defined under the default Hyperledger open source license, the Apache License, Version 2.0 (https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0)
The development and/or promotion of a Special Interest Group solution that generally falls outside of the domain of the healthcare industry. Note that a solution may be appropriately developed in-scope such that it can be utilized in the healthcare industry, as well as in other non-healthcare domains
