Abstract
Blockchain facilitates a broad spectrum of applications such as transaction of cryptocurrency, catering to financial services, designing and constructing smart cities and so on. It has astounding benefits including accountability, consistency and decentralization. Smart healthcare can be exemplified as utilizing propitious electronic technology safeguarded with blockchain for superior diagnosis of the disorders, improvised and cost-effective treatment of the patients, and enhanced quality of lives. Since, blockchain in smart healthcare architecture hosts substantial amount of patient data queueing models play a pivotal role to efficiently process the data. In this paper, it highlights the concepts of blockchain, then delve into the smart healthcare architecture and then deal with the several queueing models that already exist. It proposes the model i.e. hQChain which is inculcating M1,b/Mb/1 queueing model into blockchain based smart healthcare architecture. It offers a queuing mathematical and analytical model to analyze and study the performance measurement of hQChain model.
Highlights
Blockchain provides an anonymous, accountable, authentic, consistent, decentralized and persistent approach for consensus impelled interaction amidst numerous entities through its distributed ledger (Carlozo, 2017)

Summary
Blockchain provides an anonymous, accountable, authentic, consistent, decentralized and persistent approach for consensus impelled interaction amidst numerous entities through its distributed ledger (Carlozo, 2017). Disease Treatment: Physician or specialist check-ups, follow-ups, conduct of medical procedures like surgery etc, patient being admitted to the hospital and his successive discharge and further consultations, proper medicines being prescribed play an important agenda in the course of the entire treatment All these three are essentially important to assure the best of the health of the citizens. With the ever-increasing population, it becomes extensively critical to ensure wellbeing of the citizens in an instantaneous and efficient manner It calls for innovation of smart devices and techniques which constantly monitor one’s health and administer timely solutions and treatment. Any healthcare operator can access his medical history from the blockchain and gather knowledge about his current clinical status In this same blockchain platform, doctors can order patients diagnostic tests, perform them as well as interpret their outcomes (Pratyusa Mukherjee et al, 2021).
