It can't be overstated - the reason thus can be done is that the #nostr protocol blows out the door any power asymmetry due the tech and/or platform. In this use case, the patient has as much power as the physician - the platform can't enforce any checkpoints, it's really for the governance (web of trust) to figure that out. Other people like @Pip the WoT guy are figuring that problem out. I am focusing on plumbing, not governance.

Today, on the @npub1heal...vp8p call, I successfully demonstrated the use case of what I call “Patient Zero to Nostr Hero”. It was a health consultation over a Zoom call where the patient was on-boarded to a new wallet, used that wallet to authenticate over zoom, consultation completed and resulting records securely transmitted to that newly created wallet controlled by that new patient. In this demonstration, #nostr #safebox was completely invisible, but pivotal in facilitating the secure transfer of records. This is the way healthcare should be. Personal, private and secure. Thanks to @npub1t8pw...gkvf for being such a good patient zero!
