This paper presents a novel blockchain-based privacy-preserving data sharing framework designed specifically for healthcare applications. The framework aims to address the critical challenge of securely sharing sensitive patient data while ensuring compliance with stringent privacy regulations. By leveraging the inherent features of blockchain technology, such as tamper-proof records and cryptographic protocols, the proposed framework provides a robust solution for healthcare organizations to securely exchange patient information without compromising privacy. The framework incorporates advanced encryption techniques to protect patient data, enabling secure communication between authorized entities. Furthermore, the use of smart contracts ensures the transparency and enforceability of data sharing agreements. The performance of the framework is evaluated through simulations, demonstrating its effectiveness in maintaining privacy while facilitating efficient data sharing. This research contributes to the advancement of secure and privacy-preserving data sharing solutions in the healthcare domain.
