Decentralized Health Record Management System

Abstract

Blockchain technology has the potential to completely transform how electronic medical records are exchanged and maintained by giving healthcare practitioners safer ways to communicate medical data while safeguarding it across a decentralised peer-to-peer network. A systematic literature search was carried out to examine the existing literature on blockchain and healthcare and to identify existing challenges and open questions arising from the process, guided by the emergence of research questions related to Electronic Health Records (EHR) in a Blockchain, in order to support and facilitate understanding of this distributed ledger technology. In recent years, hackers have been interested in healthcare data. Decentralization can reduce the damaging consequences of health data. Decentralized ownership is made possible via peerto-peer (P2P) networks, which let several parties store data and carry out computations while maintaining.
