Abstract

Medical Record Management System is an important information management system in healthcare centers and hospitals. Information kept in such systems need to be clean, correct and tamper-proof. In this paper, we take advantage of blockchains' tamper-proof and decentralization properties to develop a robust and secure electronic medical record management system. In particular we choose HyperLedger Fabric as our underlying technical architecture. HyperLedger Fabric yields higher throughput and lower latency compared with other blockchains, which is a perfect candidate for enterprise software development. Our system is a novel innovation that can serve as an ideal replacement for conventional Medical Record Management System.
