Abstract: Abstract Health care organizations have begun to engage in the digital transformation of their population health strategies to become patient centric by extending their care coordination into the client ecosystem using advanced technologies. Such transformation requires the engagement of an inter-organizational network of clinical and non-clinical partners and patients, as part of a community model. This community model needs a relationship governance capability to engage the partners to address shared health outcome goals, as well as a resource orchestration capability to share resources needed to create, fulfill, and assess care plans to achieve these outcomes. This chapter uses network and communication theories to discuss the formation of a community model in a networked organization, and blockchain technology can become a part of a digital platform used to address the evolving needs of patients. The last section discusses how various chapters in this book highlight the proposed use of blockchain technology for multiple healthcare networks as they address issues that are of interest to its community model actors.
