The Blockchain-Powered Decentralized Platform for Secure Healthcare Data Exchange revolutionizes private healthcare data management. It protects patient privacy and ensures data accuracy while making data exchange more efficient and secure. We use AES in Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) and SHA-256 hashing to encrypt and verify data. This protects the system against illegal access. Blockchain technology improves site functionality. Keeping an unchanging audit trail allows diverse healthcare systems to operate together without issues. Performance tests reveal significant improvements in latency (150 milliseconds), performance (1000 events per second), and security (9/10) over previous and shared systems. The platform is scalable, fault-tolerant, and cost-effective, making it a solid long-term alternative for the ever-changing healthcare industry. By making healthcare more collaborative and making crucial information easily accessible, this strategy benefits patients. We achieve this by resolving fundamental data processing and exchange issues.
