IncentHealth is using blockchain to improve health behavior through incentives and providing new healthcare payment mechanisms for underserved markets. The company's first solution tackles smoking, which is not only one of the leading causes of deaths in the U.S. but also contributes to higher insurance premiums, increased insurance claims, and negative externalities associated with second hand effects. IncentHealth's pilot program uses smart contracts running on the ethereum blockchain for secure incentive payouts, as well as an audit trail for partner organizations.
