"This book looks at the integration of blockchain technology in healthcare settings, focusing on its potential to address security and privacy concerns of medical applications. From fragmented electronic health records to data breaches and interoperability issues, innovative solutions are necessary to unlock the full potential of health information and prevent the recurrence of such issues. Blockchain offers a promising framework for addressing these challenges. Its decentralized, tamper-resistant natureholds the key to building trust and transparency in healthcare data management. By leveraging blockchain technology, secure, interoperable systems that empower patients to take control of their health information while facilitating seamless collaborationamong healthcare providers can be created. Throughout this book, the authors explore the fundamental principles of blockchain technology and its applications within the healthcare landscape. From electronic health records and patient consent management to pharmaceutical supply chains and clinical research, this book examines how blockchain can drive efficiency, enhance security, and ultimately improve patient outcomes. This book is intended for a broad audience, including healthcare professionals, patients, policymakers, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology and healthcare"--
