Blockchain technology and raft consensus for secure physician prescriptions and improved diagnoses in electronic healthcare systems
Nature July 8, 2024
Abstract
With electronic healthcare systems undergoing rapid change, optimizing the crucial process of recording physician prescriptions is a task with major implications for patient care. The power of blockchain technology and the precision of the Raft consensus algorithm are combined in this article to create a revolutionary solution for this problem. In addition to addressing these issues, the proposed framework, by focusing on the challenges associated with physician prescriptions, is a breakthrough in a new era of security and dependability for the healthcare sector. The Raft algorithm is a cornerstone that improves the diagnostic decision-making process, increases confidence in patients, and sets a new standard for robust healthcare systems. In the proposed consensus algorithm, a weighted sum...
