Abstract

With the rapid merger of healthcare business and information technology, more healthcare institutions and medical practices are sharing information. Since these records often contain patients’ sensitive personal information, Healthcare Information Systems (HISs) should be properly designed to manage these records in a secure manner. We propose a novel security design for the HIS complying with the security and privacy rules. The proposed system defines protocols to ensure secure delivery of medical records over insecure public networks and reliable management of medical record in the remote server without incurring excessive costs to implement services for security. We demonstrate the practicality of the proposed system through a security analysis and performance evaluation. key words: Healthcare Information System (HIS), privacy, Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), Protected Health Information (PHI)
