As healthcare shifts to digital platforms, the healthcare sector is suffering from multiple security vulnerabilities that make it vulnerable to various types of cyberattacks. Therefore, robust security solutions need to be implemented to resolve these vulnerabilities. In this context, blockchain technology has emerged as a promising solution in several sectors, including the healthcare sector. This study harnesses blockchain technology to improve medical record management. By integrating blockchain, we address issues like data breaches and inefficient data sharing. The proposed study ensures a seamless health record exchange that is secure, transparent, and beneficial to both patients and healthcare providers. The goal of this study is to empower patients to be more in control of their data while streamlining processes and enhancing security for healthcare institutions. Medical records are increasingly secure, interoperable, and accessible when blockchain technology and big data are used. According to the study, healthcare workers recognize the importance of protecting medical records through blockchain technology and big data, which can improve security, interoperability, and accessibility. This minimizes concerns related to data manipulation while providing a more cost-effective and efficient method of managing medical records. Medical records management is made more cost-effective and efficient by reducing concerns related to data manipulation.
