Description

Digital Therapeutics Management Server for Managing Licenses of Digital Therapeutics Based on Blockchain and Method of Operating the Same Embodiments of the present invention relate to a digital therapeutic management server that manages licenses of digital therapeutics based on blockchain and a method of operation thereof. Digital therapeutics refer to software or digital devices that possess the same clinical efficacy as pharmaceuticals for the prevention or treatment of medical disorders or diseases. With the advancement of information and communication technology, digital therapeutics utilizing digital resources are gaining prominence, alongside the treatment of diseases through conventional chemical drugs or physical procedures. In particular, digital therapeutics associated with digital-based healthcare are attracting attention for not only treating diseases but also preventing their onset through user health management. Compared to classical therapeutics, digital therapeutics are characterized by high accessibility and the ability to be infinitely replicated. Therefore, due to these characteristics, it is necessary to ensure that digital therapeutics are supplied only to designated patients and in designated quantities (i.e., for specific periods). In other words, it is necessary to manage licenses for digital therapeutics. Furthermore, licenses for these digital therapeutics must be stored securely and with integrity.
