Blockchain Technology For Secure Health Information Exchange
Keywords:
blockchain technology, health information exchangeAbstract
Blockchain improves openness, efficiency, and healthcare security. Health information exchange (HIE) raises privacy, data integrity, and interoperability issues by requiring governments, insurers, and providers to securely distribute patient data. Inadequate management, illegal access, and data breaches all compromise centralized health information systems. The decentralized, unchangeable, cryptographic features of blockchain make patient-centric, transparent, secure transmission of health data possible.
Research indicates that blockchain could safeguard health data exchange. Studies point to DLT, cryptographic hash, consensus systems, and smart contracts improving healthcare data security, integrity, and availability. According to critical studies, conventional HIEs do not protect private medical records. Decentralized blockchain technology lowers central failure and manipulation, therefore improving data exchange safety.
