The rapid advancement of blockchain technology has opened up new possibilities for transformative applications across various sectors, including healthcare. This project introduces an innovative initiative leveraging blockchain's potential to redefine the management and sharing of personal health records (PHR). The primary goal is to establish a decentralised and secure PHR system that prioritises patient empowerment, data integrity, and privacy. Our strategy involves incorporating blockchain principles into the fundamental structure of the PHR system, ensuring a robust and tamper-resistant foundation. By decentralising the storage of health records, we mitigate the risks associated with centralised repositories, thus granting patients greater control over their sensitive information. To improve accessibility and convenience, each patient is provided with an NFC (Near Field Communication) card. This card acts as a secure authentication mechanism, enabling individuals to access their health records easily by tapping the card on designated readers. This innovative feature enhances the user experience, facilitating widespread adoption of the system. This project signifies a fundamental change in how individuals manage their health records, harnessing state-of-the-art technology to create a secure, transparent, and patient-centric ecosystem. As the healthcare landscape evolves, the integration of blockchain into PHR systems emerges as a critical driver for revolutionising healthcare data management. The inclusion of NFC card authentication further enhances the accessibility of this system, making it a comprehensive solution for secure and seamless personal health record management.
