Exploring the Cutting Edge Technology in Healthcare: A Comprehensive Review of Cloud Based Electronic Health Records

Abstract

Electronic health record (EHR) systems significantly save healthcare expenses by improving disease management and minimizing medical mistakes. However, existing systems do not effectively motivate most individuals to share their health information. Blockchain is a dependable alternative among the available choices for enhancing existing systems. There needs to be more knowledge on the impact of blockchain-based health information systems on patients' willingness to exchange their health data throughout healthcare networks. The Electronic Health Record encompasses many patients' data, making locating the most relevant information challenging and time-consuming. Precise and automated summarization and visualization techniques can enhance patient safety, optimize efficiency, facilitate clinical decision-making, and mitigate medical errors and costs. Interoperability and standardization are crucial for enhancing the quality-of-care services and effectively coordinating care and summarization practices. In this paper, the authors present the concept of Patient-Controlled Blockchain Enabled Electronic Health Records as a means for patients to securely manage their data in a decentralized, unchangeable, visible, traceable, and reliable manner. This strategy ensures that the data sent and stored in the cloud is secure, trustworthy, confidential, intact, authenticated, available, and easily controlled by the user.
