Abstract : This research focuses on the use of blockchain technology in Electronic Health Records EHRs to improve
security, privacy and accessibility. A prototype of HealthChain has been created using a permissioned blockchain to
distribute the EHR storage and sharing across decentralized systems. Methodologically, quantitative analysis of system
metrics and qualitative assessments were used to study data security, accessibility, scalability and compliance with
established regulations. Significant findings show that HealthChain resolves security issues, assuring data consistency and
enabling secure information exchange between authorized healthcare providers. Smart contracts simplify the automation of
healthcare processes and procedures. Implications also reach academia by adding to the discussion on blockchain integration
in healthcare and practically, providing a proof of concept to facilitate development of a secure and interoperable
blockchain-based EHR system. The study supports the implementation of blockchain to a larger scale in healthcare for
enhancing patient care and data management. HealthChain offers an innovative approach to transforming EHR management
and provides practical recommendations for the policy-maker, healthcare professional, or technology developers. This
research provides a foundation for further study and development in the establishment of secure, efficacious, patientoriented
healthcare systems.
