INTRODUCTION
• A blockchain system can be considered as a virtually incorruptible cryptographic
database where critical medical information could be recorded. The system is maintained
by a network of computers, that is accessible to anyone running the software. Blockchain
operates as a pseudo-anonymous system that has still privacy issue since all transactions
are exposed to the public, even though it is tamper-proof in the sense of data-integrity.
• The access control of heterogeneous patients’ healthcare records across multiple health
institutions and devices needed to be carefully designed. Blockchain itself is not
designed as the large-scale storage system. In the context healthcare, a decentralized
storage solution would greatly complement the weakness of blockchain in the
perspective.

• Healthcare Security System
CONCLUSION
• Within the framework of this research, the expediency of using blockchain
technology in the healthcare sphere has been proved. System analysis showed that
solutions based on this technology form A safe and naturally decentralized
framework for effective digital interaction.
• One of the main advantages of blockchain in comparison with other models of
distributed databases is the integration of data processing, ensuring correctness and
security in a single protocol, implemented algorithmically and minimizing the
human factor.
• Thus, the main characteristics of the blockchain technology is availability and
stability of the information that allow it to be introduced into the healthcare sphere.
