Fortune 500 Healthcare IT Firm joins Hyperledger Blockchain Project
US healthcare IT firm Change Healthcare has joined the Linux Foundation-backed Hyperledger blockchain project.
The move come just months after Change Healthcare merged with the IT unit of the McKesson Corporation, a Fortune Global 500 pharmaceuticals firm.
Hyperledger, an open-source consortium effort, began exploring healthcare applications not long after its formation in late 2015, tapping members such as managed care consortium Kaiser Permanente and blockchain startups like Gem and Hashed Health to form a working group focused on the industry last October.
