Abstract: Abstract As individuals gain greater access control over their health information, dynamic consent solutions are increasingly offered to allow individuals to make informed choices about their permissions over time. Blockchain-based tools and technologies are emerging to enhance the capabilities of dynamic consent solutions to offer individuals more engagement. While blockchain-based systems cannot replace all human interactions, blockchain features can increase granularity, transparency, and trust. This chapter describes the benefits and drawbacks of dynamic, informed consent and proposes several design and feature considerations to optimize blockchain-based features.
