HOSPITAL & HEALTHCARE

Clinical and billing actions with authority you can prove

Healthcare runs on shared workstations, delegated access and data that cannot be un-leaked. UniKey binds each sensitive action to the person who authorized it, from a key that never leaves their device, and keeps a tamper-evident record of it.

THE PROBLEM TODAY

Credentials stand in for permission

Shared sessions

A workstation left signed in lets anyone act as the last clinician who used it.

Delegated access

Staff act for physicians and patients, but the record rarely shows who authorized what.

Billing fraud

Claims and payment changes are submitted with credentials that can be stolen and reused.

WITH UNIKEY

Actions that carry a Trust Packet

Each one is signed by the party with the authority to take it, and verified before it executes.

  • Open a patient record

    Access to a record carries a packet from the clinician's device, scoped to that patient.

  • Sign an order

    Medication and lab orders are signed by the prescriber, not by whoever holds the session.

  • Patient consent

    Patients authorize sharing from their own phone, with the consent recorded as a certificate.

  • Submit a claim

    Claims and refunds carry the authority of the billing office that approved them.

Example Trust Packet open_patient_record
{
  "action": "open_patient_record",
  "subject": "dr.patel@stmarys.example",
  "signer": "stmarys.example",
  "audience": "records@stmarys.example",
  "params": {
    "patient_id": "MRN-0042817",
    "purpose": "treatment"
  },
  "expires_at": "2026-10-05T14:05:00Z"
}

Illustrative. The verifier looks up the signer's public key in DNS, checks the Ed25519 signature, refuses a packet it has seen before or one past its expiry, and only then lets the action run.
