Collecting important information helps physicians, specialists, and health care providers to simplify the care of their patients. However, because patients do not explicitly retain their data, autonomous possession and the right to protect personal data develop. This paper discovers the block chain’s potential to improve health care by placing the patient at the center of the system and improving health data protection and collaboration. The main goal of this research work is to discover the vast power of BitCoin technology that can be applied to patient records and health record protection management. As a dispensed era, Blockchain can be very beneficial, giving sufferers control over their statistics and impartial identification. With the COVID-19 pandemic, existing health information exchange systems are being put through the ringer. There is an increase in patient information sharing, as well as the need to respond to medical data requests more efficiently. There are some limitations in the current health information technologies, including the inability to remotely share medical data beyond their protected, local data stores. As a result, a secure and user-centric approach to accessing and controlling sensitive medical data is provided that is based on Blockchain immutability and decentralization. An innovative peer-to-peer system underpins the framework. Information is distributed through smart contracts that are connected to a blockchain-based protocol to ensure data integrity and traceability. Implementing the framework over a pilot study demonstrates its effectiveness.
