Abstract
This document describes systems, methods, devices, and other techniques for managing healthcare records. In some implementations, a computing system is provided that includes an electronic ledger, a first program module, and a second program module. The electronic ledger can store entries of medical record management events invoked by participants in a distributed computing network. The first program module can be assigned to an account of a first user on the distributed computing network and can identify (i) medical records of the first user and (ii) accounts of users other than the first user that are authorized to access the medical records of the first user. The second program module can be assigned to an account of a second user on the distributed computing network and can call the first program module to request access to a set of one or more of the medical records of the first user.
