Abstract
Blockchain has shown resistant to manipulation and to be robust. This attracts growing enterprises consideration transitioning to distributed from central systems. The system provides patients with comprehensive, unchanging tracking through hospitals and treatment sites and easy access to their medical information. Taking advantage of special blockchain technologies, MedRec handles security, confidentiality, transparency, and data exchange critical thoughts when managing sensitive data. This paper proposes a management identification and control program system that uses blockchain which helps to approach entity authentication and authorization in a digitalized system. By using this technology, the patient's record and their history of updation are stored as proof for future use. Ethereum is the framework used to implement blockchain in hospital management which is explained briefly in the proposed system.
