“…The product provenance information can be well-kept in blockchain supported data base and could be provided to all related parties. In fact, blockchain can be applied across many functions in healthcare namely, neuroscience, EHR medical, genomics medicine, biomedicine, clinical trials, vaccine supply and traceability (along with IoT can help in better tracking) in the pharma industry ( Jayaraman et al, 2019 , Padmavathi and Rajagopalan, 2019 ). It enables data collection, storage and recommendation, improves medicine and vaccine traceability, supports brain augmentation and simulation and assists transparent data sharing in a clinical trial management process and managing drug recalls ( Mackey et al, 2019 , Kirkner, 2018 , Radanović and Likić, 2018 , Yong et al, 2019 , Gurtu and Johny, 2019 ).…”

“…While it has been several years since serialized data were introduced in supply chains by way of EPC enabled RFID tags, QR codes, and so on, there has heretofore been a paucity of effective, industry‐wide solutions that support exchanging serialized data between supply chain partners (Jayaraman et al, 2019). Indeed, while there has been talk about the importance of information sharing in supply chains (e.g., Kache and Seurig, 2017; Colicchia et al, 2019), discussions of technological solutions that can support the same have been few and far between.…”

The ability to look into the supply chain has long enticed SCM scholars and practitioners. The possibilities created by such visibility are endless—from risk reduction and continuity planning to inventory management and cost reduction, nothing is off the table when end‐to‐end visibility is a possibility. Because of such enticements, there is usually much buzz in the industry every time a new technology that promises visibility and transparency is brought forward. Yet, years later, stories sometimes emerge that said technologies either failed to deliver or were not everything they were made out to be. Blockchain is yet another emerging technology in this space. Some consultants promise that it will be the final answer to the transparency and visibility woes that companies currently face. Yet, there is little empirical investigation regarding how the technology may benefit adopters, what the bottlenecks may be, and to what extent it may be able to deliver on these promises, without massive system‐wide upgrades of extant hardware and computing prowess. The current study takes a step in this direction by investigating a blockchain‐driven proof of concept across an industry consortium to identify promises, possibilities, and challenges of blockchain.

“…The benefits that arise from the integration of Block Chain techniques with Health Care have been documented by several authors [3], [34], [69], [75], are the computerized execution of services, disparity access control for various user types, the enactment of health-care regulations, logistics, distant data collection, indexing, the unification or calibration of information, redundancy and fault lenience.…”

The most burning topic of today, calls for a holistic solution that is reliable, secure, privacy preserved, cost effective Cloud storage that can tide over the turbulent conditions of the rapidly budding digital storage technologies. This send an outcry for a devoted solution, in the form of an individualized, patient-centric care-IoMT that augments precise disease identifications, decrease in errors, reduction in costs of care through the support of technology, allows patients to direct health information data to doctors ,manage drugs, keep Personal Health Records, caters to remote medical supports Care, provides proactive approach to preserving Good Health, improves and Accelerates Clinician Workflows, empowers extreme connectivity due to better automation and perceptions in the DNA of IoMT functions. But IoMT adoption is like a rose with thorns like constraints of increased administrative costs, deficiency of universal data access, present-day electronic medical records. The BCT is used in the framework to overcome the security issues of IoMT through the use of latest encryptions. Furthermore, this framework harnesses the benefits of Block Chain like reduced cost, speed, automation, immutability, near-impossible loss of data, permanence, removal of intermediaries, decentralization of consensus, legitimate access to health data, data safekeeping, accrual-based imbursement mechanisms, and medical supply chain efficacy. The outcomes in this paper are (i)A systematic investigation of the current IoMT, Block Chain and Cloud Storage in Health Care;(ii) Explore the challenges and necessities for the confluence of Block Chain (BC), Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), Cloud Computing (CC) ;(iii)Formulate the requirements necessary for the real-time remote Health Care of one-to-one care structure, which, supports the vital functions that are critical to the Patient Centric Health Care;(iv) Design and develop a novel BC IoMT U6 HCS (Block Chain based Internet of Medical Things for Uninterrupted, Ubiquitous, User-friendly, Unflappable, Unblemished, Unlimited Health Care Services) Layered Architecture, to support the vital functions critical for Patient Centric Health Care and (v) Implement and test with the previous established and proven techniques. The integrity of the Layered Architecture is validated with the already existing ones in terms of audit performances. The results from the Layered Architecture are validated and are proven to be competent in achieving safe auditing and surpass the former ones. The technology is in the sprouting phases, it is perilous that affiliates of the Health Care community realize the rudimentary ideas behind Block Chain, and detect its feasible impact on the future of patient centric medical care. Finally, and most importantly, this paper also gives a panoramic view on the current research status, and imminent directions of Secure Internet of Medical Things Using Block Chain.
