MSP Recovery joins forces with Tokenology to release tokenized healthcare initiative

Published at: May 20, 2022

MSP Recovery LLC, a healthcare recovery firm based in Miami, United States and valued in the region of $32.6 billion, has announced a collaborative partnership with Web3 solution Tokenology to launch a fraud-prevention blockchain platform, titled Lifechain.

Lifechain will seek to utilize the verifiable and transparent nature of blockchain technology to enhance the accessibility of healthcare charges, claims and medical records for patients and industry professionals.

MSP Recovery’s consumer application LifeWallet — which launched in January this year and has since registered over 1 million users, according to recent data — will house the technology alongside a tokenized solution LifeCoin.

The press release provided greater context into the scale of the task within the healthcare industry; notably, working in the field of reimbursing secondary medical insurance payments.

“The massive number of daily medical claims being tokenized is expected to surpass 50 million/day by 2024, requiring the kind of scale, security and sustainability that only Polygon can deliver.”
