Abstract

The Blockchain technology nowadays is one of the main trends in IT industry. It has robust structure and creates trustless environment, with extensive data record liveness and accessibility due to its decentralized structure. The applications build on a Blockchain platform have potential to be user-centric with high level of synchronization between the participants. Implementation in a healthcare system can enable development of a user-centric solution for access right management. This will incentivize the patients to participate in the system, but also motivate companies (e.g. pharmaceutical and insurance companies) to shift the business strategies. This paper presents anovel approach for Blockchain-based Healthcare System (BloHeS) that introduces novel record and database organization and significantly decreases database load compared to the classic Blockchain approach. Initial findings and simulation results confirms the storage size reduction, by keeping the robustness of the system.network organization
