Self-sovereign identity for healthcare using blockchain
2021
Abstract Secure and reliable identity is essential for identifying a user accurately and providing services. The traditional centralized identity systems have several security weaknesses and do not support user control. Self-sovereign identity (SSI) has been proposed to provide user control and secure identity model. User record privacy and security is a critical factor for any healthcare information system. Healthcare is also a domain where SSI solutions can counter patient information privacy and security threats. This paper reviews the applicability of blockchain-based SSI solution in healthcare, their advantages and requirements. It further provides a model use case for demonstrating the SSI application in healthcare.
