PROBLEM: Connected health devices generate continuous data, yet the vaccination record verification and fraud prevention problem has no governed record: a reading, an alert, or a device fault can travel from sensor to clinician without any durable account of which device, which software version, and which consent applied. Patient safety depends on records that often do not exist.
SOLUTION: IBM Cloud Ideas would provide a governed vaccination record verification and fraud prevention record: every reading, device state, consent, and handoff logged with lineage, so care decisions are traceable to their source. It governs the record, not the clinical judgement.
EVIDENCE BASIS: DOCUMENTED — the U.S. Food and Drug Administration clears connected medical devices and has issued cybersecurity guidance for them; HIPAA governs protected health information; software-related device recalls are documented. Source: FDA device guidance; HIPAA.
