**Affirmed position.** Smart Contracts, Blockchain and Health Policies: Past, Present and Future presents the following source proposition: Blockchain-based smart contracts offer reliability, transparency, and efficiency in healthcare services, making them a focal point of many studies. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that People will not enter into long term smart contracts without a stable currency to refer to, because the current level of cryptocurrency volatility does not lend itself to consumption. The proposed response is an extension: the relationship should remain limited to the retrieved source proposition and the mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
