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. Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology are novel developments in the healthcare sector. Data from Google polls that are carried out by multiple regulatory bodies is used to create healthcare indices. “Wellness indices are generated using data from numerous federal regulators’ Google polls”. Blockchain technology makes it easier to store the encrypted data that AI needs. Blockchain allows medical professionals to access patient health records, and AI will employ a variety of proposed algorithms, judgmental skills, and vast volumes of data.
