The incorporation of blockchain technology into electronic health records (EHRs) has emerged as a highly promising approach to mitigate challenges associated with security, privacy, and interoperability in the management of healthcare data. Conventional EHR systems are frequently centralized, rendering them susceptible to cyber threats and unauthorized access. The decentralized and immutable qualities of blockchain facilitate secure data sharing, augment patient autonomy over medical records, and enhance interoperability among healthcare providers. This review examines the architecture, advantages, obstacles, and recent progressions in blockchain-based EHR systems. Furthermore, it deliberates future re-search trajectories aimed at optimizing blockchain integration in healthcare while ensuring adherence to regulatory standards and scalability.
