These innovations, however, must be used in tandem to drive real change. We review each of these innovations and propose a model for how they can be combined to be greater than the sum of their parts. In doing so, we can create a global, decentralized health system that truly puts patient care at the center, while supporting and further enabling the clinicians who make this care possible, to deliver higher quality care at a fraction of the cost.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Artificial Intelligence, Behavioral Health, Blockchain, Collaborative Care, Decentralization,<br>Direct Primary Care, Ethereum, Integration, Payment Models, Telemedicine, Virtual Assistants</p>}, journal={Blockchain in Healthcare Today}, author={Colón, Kenneth Antonio}, year={2018}, month={Sep.} }
