Abstract

This paper describes block-chain architecture as a new solution to provide a new age reliable mechanism for exchanging medical records very securely and efficiently. The Advanced Block-Chain architecture was designed to meet the demands in growing healthcare systems as well as in the new form of social interactive norms. It is going to reform the e-Health industry with countless proficiency by eradicating many of the intermediators known to world today.
