Abstract:
Blockchain is new-age technology used to track every transaction using cryptocurrency across servers linked in a peer-to-peer network, enabling transactions to be secure, transparent and reliable. Retaining an efficient, secure and patient-centric healthcare industry has never been so important, especially due to the damaging effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. The applicability of Blockchain in the healthcare domain can be seen as a remarkable opportunity for researchers and scientists to solve real-world problems. This book focuses on the fundamentals of Blockchain technology along with the methods of its integration with the healthcare industry. It also provides an enhanced understanding of Blockchain technology, AI and IoT across the various application areas of the healthcare industry. Furthermore, throughout the book, areas of relevant applications, such as patient data privacy protection, pharmaceutical supply chains and genomics are discussed.
