Popis:Advances in information technology are digitizing health areas to improve medical services, diagnoses, and continuous monitoring. These technologies have improved distributed systems’ security, reliability, and robustness. This digitization enhances the ease of calculating, storing, and accessing medical records, enabling better patient treatment experiences. However, it risks cyber-attacks, security, and privacy issues for data. In this article, we propose a reliable model based on Blockchain and the Internet of Medical Things, allowing the patient to provide consent to obtain and the option to share their medical records, getting more incredible speed when scheduling a consultation or receiving a treatment. In a Post COVID-19 era, this can take the steps for new strategic policies that offer people a more competitive system of social benefit in health and one of many avenues that help the prosperity of citizens in a world in crisis.
