ABSTRACT
Ensuring the security and usability of electronic health records (EHRs) is important in health information exchange (HIE) systems that handle healthcare records. This study addressed the need to balance privacy preserving and data usability in blockchain-based HIE systems. We propose a searchable blockchain-based HIE system that enhances privacy preserving while improving data usability. The proposed methodology includes users collecting healthcare information (HI) from various Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices and compiling this information into EHR blocks for sharing on a blockchain network. This approach allows participants to search and utilize specific health data within the blockchain effectively. The results demonstrate that the proposed system mitigates the issues of traditional HIE systems by providing secure and user-friendly access to EHRs. The proposed searchable blockchain-based HIE system resolves the trade-off dilemma in HIE by achieving a balance between security and the data usability of EHRs.
