ABSTRACT
Governments heavily rely on collected data to analyze the health needs and requirements of their citizens. However, this data is often scattered and collected by different agencies with varying goals and business models. This creates a burden for governments in planning adequate health bills that ensure the wellbeing of their citizens. Additionally, the lack of synchronization and real-time access to this data exacerbates the problem further. Therefore, it is crucial for governments to have a system that guarantees the integrity, accessibility, correctness, and security of medical data in a highly synchronized environment. To address this issue, we propose Smart-Health (SHealth), a blockchain-based health management system. SHealth is a private, multi-layered blockchain with a multi-tiered addressing scheme that defines the privileges and permissions of entities in the system. By using blockchain technology, SHealth ensures security, reliability, availability, resistance against tampering and malicious attacks, seamless integration, and easy data management. SHealth offers complete autonomy to its users through a user-friendly graphical interface. It utilizes smart contracts to initiate various requests and inquiries pertaining to patients, such as appointments, medical tests, medications, medical procedures, or history. The system is simple, robust, efficient, secured, and completely automated. All stakeholders in the system can access the health-related data stored in a distributed database without compromising its authenticity. SHealth covers all possible scenarios in health systems, and some of these scenarios are explained in this work. In summary, SHealth provides a solution to the challenges faced by governments in managing and analyzing scattered health data. Its use of blockchain technology ensures data integrity and accessibility while providing complete autonomy to its users.
