Using Blockchain Technology in Healthcare Settings

Empowering Patients with Trustworthy Data

About this book

This book looks at the integration of blockchain technology in healthcare settings, focusing on its potential to address security and privacy concerns of medical applications. From fragmented electronic health records (EHRs) to data breaches and interoperability issues, innovative solutions are necessary to unlock the full potential of health information and prevent the recurrence of such issues.

Blockchain offers a promising framework for addressing these challenges. Its decentralized, tamper-resistant nature holds the key to building trust and transparency in healthcare data management. By leveraging blockchain technology, secure, interoperable systems empower patients to take control of their health information while facilitating a seamless collaboration among healthcare providers. Throughout this book, the authors explore the fundamental principles of blockchain technology and its applications within the healthcare landscape. From EHRs and patient consent management to pharmaceutical supply chains and clinical research, this book examines how blockchain can drive efficiency, enhance security, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

This book is intended for a broad audience, including healthcare professionals, patients, policymakers, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology and healthcare.
