Advancements in information technology have benefited the healthcare industry by providing it with distinct methods of managing medical data which improve the quality of medical services. The Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence are the foundations for innovative sustainable computing technologies in e-healthcare applications. In the IoT-enabled sustainable healthcare system, the IoT devices normally record the patient data and transfer it to the cloud for further processing. Security is considered an important issue in the design of IoT networks in the healthcare environment. To resolve this issue, this article presents a novel blockchain and artificial intelligence-enabled secure medical data transmission (BAISMDT) for IoT networks. The goal of the BAIS-MDT model is to achieve security and privacy in reliable data transmission of the IoT networks. The proposed model involves a signcryption technique for secure and reliable IoT data transmission. The blockchain-enabled secure medical data transmission process takes place among the IoT gadgets and service providers. The blockchain technique is applied to generate a viable environment to securely and reliably transmit data among different data providers. Next to the decryption process, the modified discrete particle swarm optimization algorithm with wavelet kernel extreme learning machine model is applied to determine the presence of disease. An extensive set of simulations were carried out on a benchmark medical dataset. The experimental results analysis pointed out the superior performance of the proposed BAISMDT model with the accuracy of 97.54% and 98.13% on the applied Heart Statlog and WBC dataset, respectively.
