A Solution for the Multiple Barriers to Patient-Centric Hie Using Blockchain Technology in Cloud

Abstract

Cloud computing Technology is a shared network information delivery model. Cloud is an infinite resource pool which is a virtualization concept. Hence users can easily access their data from anywhere. At an equivalent time there exist privacy and security issues. This paper addresses different data security and privacy protection issues during a cloud computing environment. The information is encrypted and secured using blockchain before outsourcing to the cloud. 128 bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is employed to extend data security and confidentiality. The unique features of blockchain, a distributed ledger technology which is considered as “unhackable” is also used to secure the information. Health Information Exchange (HIE) provides an interesting benefits for patient care like improving healthcare quality and expediting coordinated care. This paper provides a solution for the multiple barriers to patient-centric HIE within the current system, like security and privacy concerns, timely access to the proper records across multiple healthcare facilities.
