Abstract

Having a patient privacy, integrity, and access to the data have become primary concerns of the healthcare industry as a result of huge and continuous digitalization of patient health information. Conventional technology in health care lacks adequate access controls and governance that can be used to block illegal access of health records or any other form of tampering. Blockchain is a decentralized system that cannot be changed without permission, a solution to these problems may lie in such a powerful architectural framework. This chapter explores how blockchain technology can improve patient health information management, secure storage, open access control system, and facilitate effective sharing of healthcare providers, patients, and research companies. This could equally elaborate on how this new technology would enable prevention of any form of breach of health care information by protecting patients from potential medical identity theft in addition to giving them their ownership of their personal health information.
