| Summary: | This study develops a conceptual framework to enhance the security and functionality of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) in response to advancing healthcare needs. Objectives include strengthening data protection against both traditional and quantum cyber threats, increasing system resilience, and improving user experience and operational efficiency. Methods/Analysis involve a novel combination of Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and quantum cryptographic algorithms CRYSTALS-Dilithium and CRYSTALS-Kyber within a hybrid blockchain architecture to secure EHRs. Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) are incorporated to decentralize control and reinforce security, while artificial intelligence and metaverse integration facilitate user engagement and streamline operations. Findings indicate that this hybrid blockchain model, enhanced with quantum-resistant cryptography and decentralized governance, significantly improves EHR security. AI and the metaverse contribute to user interaction and operational flow. Novelty/Improvement lies in integrating hybrid blockchain, quantum cryptography, AI, and the metaverse into a unified framework, effectively addressing current and future healthcare data management challenges. This multi-layered approach represents a significant advancement over existing systems by bolstering EHR security, user engagement, and operational capabilities.
