The VANTHEON protocol
The rules
care runs on.
Proposed building blocks for a new healthcare system: coordinate care, verify evidence, recognize providers, govern changes, fund delivery and learn from experience.
Common evidence. Separate authority.
Four connected parts. Shared evidence connects care needs, work and outcomes. Reviewed contributions inform provider trust, authorized payments and Codex proposals. Separately permitted research supports THEON.
Care · Trust-Time
Bring the right
capacity together.
A care plan needs people, equipment and time that work together. Trust-Time matches deliverable services to patient needs, preferences and authority. Humans, agents and robots contribute within their roles.
A reservation is not delivered care: evidence and open obligations still need review. Unresolved machine decisions go to people; machines do not deny care.
See care coordinationValue · Pool & Treasury
Fund care.
Recognize contribution.
Members fund care. Depositors supply loss-bearing capital. Producers earn for recognized work. The Care Pool holds those resources; Treasury executes its authorized payments and reconciliation.
Care obligations and reserves come before eligible shared surplus. Network development and THEON research have separate budgets. Verified evidence alone does not make funds available.

Turn care experience
into shared improvement.
Codex connects qualified knowledge, care decisions and coordination. Reviewed experience becomes proposals for better care.
Attribution records contributions alongside their context and outcome evidence. Provider Trust Index (PTI) evaluates human and machine providers by service, case context and uncertainty. Better validated decisions and outcomes can earn stronger incentives and bounded voting influence on relevant Codex proposals under separate rules. Patients retain independent representation.
Read the governance model- Deliberate
- Vote
- Evaluate
- Authorize
A vote does not prove benefit or execute a change. Evaluation, scoped approval and monitoring remain separate.
Intelligence · THEON
Learn from care.
Improve how we learn.
THEON is VANTHEON’s proposed healthcare foundation-model family and research program. It connects medical knowledge and authorized experience with collaborating agents and robots.
Research studies better models and better research methods, including recursive self-improvement. Independent evaluation and separate permission to learn govern each path.

Connected evidence.
Accountable decisions.
Patients retain choice, explanation, appeal and correction. Access stays tied to its permitted purpose. When evidence changes, responsible owners revisit affected decisions and obligations, preserving the history and the right to challenge it.
Shared proof. Private health records.
The proposed on-chain layer records commitments to evidence and authorized network state. Clinical records stay in access-controlled stores off chain. A commitment can help check integrity; it does not prove clinical truth or authorize access to health records or a clinical action.
Privacy and security assumptionsConnected records, standards and implementation evidence
Records, device observations and patient reports connect through agreed mappings and purpose-limited access. FHIR, SMART on FHIR, US Core and clinical terminologies support this work; naming a standard does not certify an integration.
The published reference materials demonstrate sample-record mappings and FHIR, CQL and access-control components. They document specific implementations, not readiness of the proposed network.
