AMA Incubator Invests $10 Million in Blockchain Health Startup

Blockchain startup Akiri has received $10 million in Series A funding to develop a distributed ledger platform for health data.

Announced on Jan. 3, the fund was granted by Health2047, a technology incubator company launched by the American Medical Association (AMA). The platform, called Akiri Switch, will be a "network-as-a-service" tool meant to securely transfer private healthcare data including patient records across the U.S. healthcare system.

According to the announcement, the network is designed to validate both the source and destination of a data transaction by combining a blockchain base with other privacy and routing tools to prevent unauthorized users from gaining access.
