Blockchain-Based Smart Integrated Healthcare System

Abstract

The goal of this research is to implement a smart healthcare application based upon blockchain technology, to construct a theoretical model that is hierarchical for smart healthcare, and to build a smart healthcare development software system based on stakeholder theory. Currently, electronic health records allow for just the automatic updating and exchange of medical data on a single patient inside a single organization or network of organizations. This could be extended if the data was organized in a way such that the blockchain's uppermost layer only contained non-PHI or personally identifiable data (PII). Decentralization, anonymity, tamper resistance, and auditability are all properties of blockchain. It is a key fourth industrial revolution technology. The combination of blockchain and smart healthcare can help to alleviate traditional smart healthcare's pain points in information sharing, data protection, and privacy preservation, as well as optimize user-centered smart healthcare systems and establish a multiparty medical cooperation chain involving government, businesses, and individuals, all of which can imperialize smart healthcare.
