Abstract :
It is problematic at its core because it lacks transparency and leads to inefficient use, susceptibility to fraud, and inefficient application. A leading problem is inefficiency due to manual processes, lack of tracking systems, and unauthorized access to sensitive information. We thus propose an effort to device a blockchain-based framework specifically customized for efficient health-care fund management. This system utilizes core blockchain features like immutability, consensus mechanisms, and encrypts the use of healthcare funds in a manner that is secure and transparent. Through decentralization, records of the fund allocation and the accounting through smart contracts, it reduces human intervention, thus accelerating processing and prevention of misappropriation. Access and tampering with it can only be done by the authorized because citizen requests are verified against predefined eligibility rules. The blockchain will maintain records of all transactional funds allocation in such a way that it is immutable and unchangeable regarding any form of tampering. The same permissioned blockchain facilitates secure interaction between government organisations and healthcare companies; off-chain storage results in better efficiency because most of the data management is done off-chain, which is less critical. This focused approach will give confidence to the stakeholders and present an efficient cost-effective method the same system offering safe funds for health care tracking. The proposed system is a model for leveraging the latest technologies to overcome administrative challenges in public health care systems.
