Blockchain in healthcare: a comprehensive exploration of security, interoperability, and data integrity

Abstract

Through cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology has demonstrated that it is a safe platform capable of meeting the needs of diverse participants in a variety of industries. Owing to its innovative methodology, blockchain technology has been the focus of numerous digital healthcare sector studies by academia and commercial researchers. The original goal of blockchain applications for electronic health records was to develop new use cases for data management. The diversity of these eHealth incidents has not yet had a noticeable effect on the eHealth sector. Instead, blockchain data management solutions are becoming more prevalent to address data silos' integration. Despite numerous well-established eHealth integration systems, hospitals still segregate medical record data. In this work, the significance and timely importance of every person's healthcare data are thus summarized in a decentralized blockchain model. In summary, the study covers topics ranging from Bitcoin transaction verification and scalability challenges to access control models in healthcare and security issues in blockchain integration with IoT. It emphasizes the importance of addressing scalability concerns and implementing robust security measures in healthcare using blockchain systems.
