Abstract
Blockchain, a futuristic technology has great potential to provide a revolutionary boom in the healthcare industry by providing a secure, decentralized and network-based peer-to-peer solution to reinvent the way patients store and share their electronic clinical information. Blockchain is most booming technologies on the planet for the next three decades. Purpose of the study is to explore the present literature on blockchain in the field of healthcare and identify the applications, challenges, and open research questions related to electronic health records on blockchain technology. A systematic literature review method is used to support and facilitate understanding of this ever-growing accounting technology Many reputable articles reviewed in this document were also accessed which resulted in adoption challenges, technical issues, and some research questions formed in conjunction with interoperability standards. To this end, even more research is needed to understand the technical side and utility of blockchain in the domain of healthcare.
