Health Data
With Proof.
Verify clinical trial results, healthcare professional credentials, and pharmaceutical origins with cryptographic attestations that protect patient privacy.
Why Healthcare Needs Cryptographic Proof
Healthcare is built on trust — trust that a doctor is licensed, that trial data hasn't been altered, and that medications are authentic. But traditional verification relies on phone calls, faxed paperwork, and fragmented databases that are slow, expensive, and vulnerable to fraud.
$4.7B
annual healthcare fraud losses
Fake credentials, fraudulent billing, and falsified clinical data cost the healthcare industry billions every year in the U.S. alone.
30+ days
average credentialing time
Hospitals spend weeks manually verifying physician credentials through primary source verification — a process that delays patient care.
10%
of medications are counterfeit
The WHO estimates that 1 in 10 medical products in low- and middle-income countries is substandard or falsified.
FIRST
Cryptographic
HIPAA Layer.
Truthlocks never stores or processes protected health information (PHI). Instead, it provides a cryptographic integrity layer that proves health-related claims are authentic without exposing the underlying data. The actual medical records stay in your HIPAA-compliant systems.
When a hospital issues an attestation (e.g., "Dr. Smith is board-certified in cardiology"), Truthlocks cryptographically signs and records that claim. Anyone who needs to verify it can check the attestation without accessing the hospital's internal systems.
Healthcare Use Cases
Truthlocks enables healthcare organizations to issue verifiable attestations for credentials, certifications, trial data, and pharmaceutical records.
Clinical Trial Integrity
Anchor clinical trial results to a tamper-evident log at the time they are recorded. Regulators and peer reviewers can verify that data hasn't been selectively reported or altered after the fact.
Physician Credentialing
Medical boards and hospitals issue verifiable attestations of physician licenses, board certifications, and privileges. Credentialing organizations verify in seconds instead of weeks.
Nursing & Allied Health Licenses
Nursing boards and professional bodies issue cryptographically signed license attestations. Staffing agencies and healthcare facilities verify active license status instantly.
Pharmaceutical Attestation
Manufacturers attest to drug batch origins, handling conditions, and quality testing results. Downstream parties verify these attestations to confirm pharmaceutical authenticity.
Patient Vaccination Records
Healthcare providers issue verifiable vaccination attestations. Patients carry cryptographic proof of their immunization status that schools, employers, or travel authorities can check.
Continuing Medical Education
CME providers issue verifiable attestations for completed coursework and credits. Medical boards and hospitals confirm that practitioners meet ongoing education requirements.
How It Works
Truthlocks acts as a verification layer — medical data stays in your HIPAA-compliant systems while cryptographic proofs flow through the platform.
Claim Generated
A hospital, lab, or licensing board creates a digital attestation through the Truthlocks Console or API. The raw medical data remains in their HIPAA-compliant storage — only the attestation metadata flows through Truthlocks.
Cryptographic Anchor
The attestation is cryptographically signed with the issuer's key and recorded in the Truthlocks Transparency Log. This creates an immutable, timestamped proof that the claim was made by an authorized issuer.
Consent-Driven Verification
The credential holder (patient, physician, or organization) shares their proof with a verifier. The verifier checks the attestation's authenticity and current status without accessing any underlying medical records.
Designed for Healthcare Compliance
Truthlocks is designed to complement your existing compliance posture, not replace it. Here's how the platform aligns with healthcare regulatory requirements.
No PHI Processing
Truthlocks never stores, processes, or transmits protected health information. Attestations contain only the claims the issuer chooses to include — no patient records, diagnoses, or treatment data flows through the platform.
Tamper-Evident Audit Trail
Every attestation, verification, and status change is recorded in a SHA-256 integrity-chained audit log. This satisfies HIPAA's audit control requirements (§164.312(b)) for tracking access to electronic health information.
Role-Based Access Control
The platform enforces granular RBAC with four role levels (Owner, Admin, Operator, Viewer). This supports HIPAA's minimum necessary standard by ensuring team members only access what their role requires.
Revocation & Status Management
If a credential is suspended or revoked (e.g., license suspension), the issuer updates the attestation status. All subsequent verification checks return the current status — ensuring stale credentials aren't accepted.
Does Truthlocks store any medical records or private health data?
No. Truthlocks is an integrity and verification layer. We anchor cryptographic commitments (hashes and signatures) that prove a record exists and hasn't been altered, but the actual medical data stays within your secure, HIPAA-compliant storage. No patient records, diagnoses, or treatment information ever flows through our platform.
How does patient consent work for credential verification?
Verification is holder-driven. The patient or credential holder receives a proof bundle and decides when and with whom to share it. They can share a verification link or QR code with a specific employer, insurer, or institution. The verifier confirms the attestation's authenticity without accessing any underlying clinical data.
Is Truthlocks HIPAA-compliant?
Truthlocks is designed so that HIPAA compliance obligations remain with the healthcare entity. Because Truthlocks never processes PHI, it operates as a verification infrastructure layer rather than a covered entity or business associate. That said, we maintain SOC 2-aligned security controls, encryption at rest and in transit, and tamper-evident audit logging.
Can attestations be revoked if a license is suspended?
Yes. If a licensing board suspends or revokes a credential, the issuer updates the attestation status through the Truthlocks Console or API. The status change is recorded in the audit log and takes effect immediately — any subsequent verification check will reflect the updated status.
How does this differ from existing credentialing services?
Traditional credentialing services act as intermediaries that collect and store copies of credentials. Truthlocks takes a different approach: issuers create cryptographically signed attestations that verifiers can check directly. There's no central database of credential copies — just cryptographic proofs that anyone can verify.
