Abstract
The healthcare is a critical institution that constantly requires
available information at the right time and with high accuracy.
Right information at the right time save lives, which is the main
rationale behind healthcare services (saving lives). Electronic
Health Record systems (EHR) are increasingly being deployed
within healthcare institutions to reduce the problems and
limitations of the paper-based approach.The deployment of the
EHRhas been slow due to high investment and maintenance cost.
Cloud Computing is an emerging technology that can be
integrated with traditional health management to provide better
health services. This work proposes a Cloud-Based Healthcare
Information System (CBHIS) for recording, retrieving,
archiving and updating of patients’ information and other
medical records to have a better management, high speed and
increased quality for the medical processes keeping in mind the
major issues of security, privacy and confidentiality of the patient
information related to cloud computing.The Cloud database acts
as the unified data bank for all the collaborating hospitals, the
middleware provides a common platform for all the EHR systems
between remote hospitals while an authentication server grants
access to authorized users and denies unauthorized users access
to records or resources on the system.Netbeans 8.1 IDE was used
to design the system
