Exploring the Impact of Blockchain Revolution on the Healthcare Ecosystem: A Critical Review

Abstract

Blockchain technology is a type of distributed ledger that provides secure and efficient storage, management, and transmission of data over a decentralized network. With its ability to ensure transparency and immutability, blockchain is increasingly adopted across various sectors ranging from finance, healthcare, and logistics to education. In healthcare, blockchain technology is attracting attention because of its potential to fundamentally transform health ecosystems. The healthcare sector has significantly benefited from blockchain technology by enhancing data security and interoperability and reducing medical errors. In this context, a set of studies highlighted the importance of blockchain in the field of healthcare, enhancing trust and security in the exchange of data and preventing unauthorized access. The article also studies the meaning, structure, function, types, and areas of use of blockchain technology and discusses the distribution of medical products in supply chain management. This article concludes that blockchain technology is highly important for storing health records, enhancing patient privacy, protecting patient data, and allowing the secure sharing of these data with physicians and healthcare workers.
