The data is collected through EHR, diagnostic image like scan or x-ray or IoT wearable devices which has sensors and shared with stakeholders who can analyse the data and use it for betterment of the processes. Benefits of medical data sharing among the entities makes it even more vulnerable. In this paper we have studied and analysed few blockchain based methods of securing healthcare data which is stored in cloud. The methods studied is successful in keeping the data safe from unauthorized access.
