📍 Data governance engulfs different types of process and policy in order to secure the successful management of data all through its lifecycle.
🔸 Why is data governance vital in the context of NFTs and healthcare data?
For various reasons, including the following:
1️⃣. Data governance policies assure that data is shared between different healthcare providers, researchers and other organizations in a secure and compliant manner, assisting in the advancement of the quality of care by providing doctors with access to a more thorough and comprehensive picture of a patient’s health history.
2️⃣. One use for NFTs is the effective storage and tracking of healthcare data, which is highly sensitive and must be safeguarded at all times. That can be achieved through data governance policies that establish the maintenance of the patient’s privacy. The access to said data is controlled, in part by singling out how that data is stored and used.
3️⃣. NFTs can be used to create a guarded record of healthcare data, meaning the files can’t be altered or deleted without the patient's or the healthcare provider’s knowledge. This can help to guarantee the accuracy and integrity of the data, which is key for making informed medical decisions, fundamental for a high-quality medical practice.
