Distributed Medical Report Management System using Blockchain Technology

Abstract

The Distributed Medical Report Management System using Blockchain Technology is designed to revolutionize the management and sharing of medical reports by integrating blockchain technology, specifically targeting data security and patient privacy.This system enhances the protection of Electronic Health Records (EHR) through sophisticated cryptographic methods and decentralized storage solutions.It consists of four core modules-Hospital, Doctor, Patient, and Receptionist-each tailored to manage specific healthcare tasks.The Hospital Module enables secure management of patient records and administrative tasks, creating a transparent and unchangeable ledger that boosts data integrity and builds trust.The Doctor Mod-ule allows healthcare professionals to securely access and update patient records, with cryptographic safeguards ensuring that only authorized users can see or alter sensitive information, significantly reducing the risk of data breaches.The Patient Module empowers individuals by providing direct access to their medical records, allowing them to monitor their health history and control who can view their data.The Receptionist Module streamlines administrative functions, such as appointment scheduling, while securely logging all interactions on the blockchain.By replacing traditional paper-based systems, this blockchain-centric approach offers a more secure, efficient, and user-friendly method for managing sensitive patient data.Advatages include enhanced security through blockchain protection, decentralized storage minimizing risks of data loss, improved accessibility for authorized healthcare providers, and increased patient control over their health information.Ultimately, the Distributed Medical Report Management System demonstrates the transforma-tive potential of blockchain technology in creating a secure framework for managing patient records, addressing challenges in healthcare data management, and paving the way for a more efficient healthcare system.
