Abstract

AbstractNew opportunities for clinical data processing and accessibility for patients to view and share their health data are opening up through advances in electronic medical reports, cloud data storage, and patient data protection regulations. Securing data, processing, transfers, and maintaining their seamless integration are of tremendous importance for any data-driven enterprise. Particularly in healthcare, blockchain technology can robustly and effectively solve these essential problems. Blockchain technology has entered a big boom in the health sector amid its utility in solving the safety concerns of the EHR in healthcare. EHRs are able to improve the delivery of healthcare. The introduction of EHRs offered the potential for information technologies to counteract those efforts. Electronic access to medical records allowed doctors to increase the quality of care significantly. In fact, EHR allows improved control of the condition and increased levels of preventive treatment. The digital record provides better functions to support decision-making and enhanced collaboration among carers. Therefore, its position in the health sector is increasingly recognized. The protection of such digital information is, therefore, given the utmost importance, and blockchain is widely used for safe and stable data on healthcare. Holding data integrity and rising data processing storage costs in blockchain healthcare technology play a significant role. Encrypted in the block chain, the proposed LWKG architecture helps a customer to show the moment that health data is displayed. LWKG verifies the integrity of information and analyzes the results stored in the database.KeywordsBlock chainHash functionSecurity
