• Abstract: This article presents the potential use of the Self-Sovereign Identities (SSI), combining with Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT), to improve the privacy and control of health data. The paper presents the SSI technology, lists the prominent use cases of decentralized identities in the health area, and discusses an effective blockchain-based architecture. The main contributions of the article are: (i) mapping SSI general and abstract concepts, e.g., issuers and holders, to the health domain concepts, e.g., physicians and patients; (ii) creating a correspondence between the SSI interactions, e.g., issue and verify a credential, and the US standardized set of health use cases; (iii) presenting and instantiating an architecture to deal with the use cases mentioned, effectively organizing the data in a user-centric way, that uses well-known SSI and Blockchain technologies.

  Mental illness is a widespread and debilitating condition with substantial societal and personal costs. Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) hold great potential for recognizing and addressing conditions such as depression, anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Privacy concerns, including the risk of sensitive data leakage from datasets and trained models, remain a critical barrier to deploying these AI systems in real-world clinical settings.

  Self-sovereign identity (SSI) was introduced as an IdM model to reduce the possibility of data breaches. SSI is a decentralised IdM, where the data owner has sovereign control of personal data stored in their digital wallet. This paper provides an evolution to IdMs and reviews state-of-the-art SSI frameworks.
