Electronic Health Records using Blockchain and Cloud computing
Blockchain technology eliminates the need for a central system to guarantee information integrity and custody of data, as well as to mediate transactions and the exchange of crypto assets, by allowing safe and pseudo-anonymous transactions and bilateral agreements between participants. It has crucial qualities like immutability, decentralization, and openness that could help with pressing healthcare challenges including inadequate records at the point of care and restricted access to patients' own medical information. Interoperability software system and technology frameworks to interact safely and efficiently, share data, and utilize that data across healthcare organizations and application vendors, resulting in a more efficient and effective public health system. Due to a lack of interoperability, healthcare today suffers from compartmentalized and disjointed data, hindered communications, and fragmented workflow tools. In a safe and pseudo-anonymous manner, blockchain provides access to longitudinal, full, and adulterate aware medical records that are kept in fragmented systems. The goal of our suggested scheme is to first integrate blockchain technology for EHR and then to enable safe storage of electronic records for users of the framework by defining granular access controls. The following framework gives the EHR system the advantages of a blockchain-based solution that is extensible, secure, and integrated.
