Blockchain-based mental health solution system

Abstract

In recent years blockchain technology has evolved from finance to industrial usage, wellness to health, commerce to service sector. The convergence of blockchain technology and e-mental healthcare presents an evolutionary system which provides solutions to the challenges of the healthcare system. This report expresses how blockchain revolutionizes the accessibility, security, anonymity of patient data and quality of mental healthcare services. We build a system using Hyperledger Fabric blockchain that fulfill the gap of mental system which lack the tool to verify the credentials of medical professionals, identify the varified patients and access control one’s medical data. In the system decentralised cloud system IPFS has been integrated for secure data sharing, storing patients’ encrypted data and the hash value is stored in the blockchain. The system also offers users teletherapy treatment and access control over their data. To maintain quality treatment we also implement a review feature. By this project we are able to transform the mental healthcare service with more advancement. This is not just a mental healthcare project, by this project we can also understand how to develop other healthcare sectors.
