【Abstract】The Crucial and costly process of verifying medical documents frequently depends on centralized databases. Nevertheless, manual validation of document verification wastes a great deal of time and energy. The application of Blockchain technology could potentially alleviate the problem by reducing fraud and increasing efficiency. Non-transferable Soul-bound tokens (SBTs) can be a safe and unbreakable way to authenticate medical records by generating encrypted code, which allows the user to authenticate a portion of data. Within the paper, we provide a blockchain-based SBT-based automatic mechanism for authentication and verification of records. Soul-bound tokens generate a decentralized, immutable identity or credential system that is tied to a record. Through cloud computing, the system can reduce the verification time by accessing a decentralized database. Blockchain systems can lower platform costs and determine the optimal allocation of resources across a dispersed network by utilizing deep learning algorithms. Two advantages of utilizing blockchain technology are less fraud and increased efficiency. SBTs and cloud computing enable the procedure to be expedited and decentralized databases to be readily available. The suggested system's scalability and potential uses in other industries may be the subject of future research.
