Abstract | The medical record exchange (EMR) between hospitals is a challenge in medical health. The health information dataare sensitive and require the utmost privacy. This research proposes an improved new process for the hospital context, which isbased on Blockchain technology. A key characteristic is the general distributed method with the consensus mechanism, whichgives the benefits of immutability, security, trust, and near-real-time transactions. This study designed the standard data structureunder HIPPA Law and GDPR regulations. These fields have been encrypted on the system architecture, which builds on theHyperledger Fabric using chaincode validation. The scenario testing illustrates a proof of concept, which is on the realenvironment and simulated medical records, in terms of throughput, fault tolerance, and immutability. Performance analysisconfirms that Blockchain technology is valuable and meaningful to the healthcare system. This research also found that themedical Blockchain provides absolute real-time EMR with security. |
