Data privacy is always a concern when it comes to any kind of personal data. In medical domain, the medical data of a patient needs to be more protected and also be accessible. The medical industry is facing the problem of storing and sharing medical data with multiple parties while promising security at the same time. The hospitals don’t share their patient data with other hospitals or organizations because of a lack of security in the infrastructure used to transfer this sensitive data. With the introduction of a blockchain based Electronic Medical Records (EMR) may help to solve the issue to a certain extent. From literature it is found that the current blockchain EMR schemas focus on patient-owned models. In this paper, design and development of a web-based software to store patient electronic medical records in a block chain-based back end that is supplied over the internet using Amazon Web Services (AWS) Managed Blockchain is proposed. The major goal is to ensure that the model fits the Confidentiality, Availability, and Integrity (CIA) trinity and performs effectively in benchmarks. In comparison to literature, the proposed block chain demonstrated up to a 65% increase in read throughput, 260%-400% improvement in write throughput on certain work loads, in addition to being exceptionally dependable and secure. The underlying model can be upgraded using cutting-edge algorithms and approaches to lower the model’s maintenance costs and raise its efficiency. The proposed model has been compared with already proposed method in literature and tends to give significant results.
