The proposed framework enhances data privacy and security in electronic health records systems by utilizing blockchain technology.
Evaluations show this blockchain-based system is reasonable and can operate on both permissioned and permissionless networks.
Implementation on Ethereum demonstrates the framework's potential for interoperability among different healthcare systems and platforms for electronic health records management over time. It utilizes smart contracts for automation and decentralized functionalities, improving efficiency in health data exchanges supported by audits and privacy measures surrounding sensitive patient information. They may enable a shift from traditional centralized systems to a more secure and decentralized approach for patient health records.
