Blockchain technology and artificial intelligence (AI) are proving their worth individually in the field of the healthcare industry. Blockchain is an emerging technology and well known for its valid data and security. The blockchain data structures are well structured to retrieve data easily and it stores data in a decentralized way. It provides the facility to automate tasks using smart contracts and it logs all the transactions in the ledger. But the blockchain cannot assure the smart contract quality and cannot detect data behaving maliciously. Blockchain challenges can be overcome with the help of AI. AI provides intelligence through decision making throughalgorithms. AI trains machines with the help of data to predict outcomes using various machine-learning algorithms. Blockchain helps to provide great quality data for these algorithms. In this fast-growing world, there are data-hungry applications, especially the healthcare industry, that need data with high security and privacy. In this chapter we provide information on how the integration of blockchain and AI would help in data analysis, creating quality assured smart contracts, and facilitating personalized treatment plans in the healthcare industry. |
