Abstract
A mechanism is provided in a data processing system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions which are executed by the at least one processor and configure the processor to implement a healthcare blockchain framework for enforcing regulatory compliance in healthcare cloud solutions. The mechanism provides a healthcare blockchain framework to create, read, update, and delete elements of a healthcare compliance model supporting a dynamic allocation of cloud resources to a healthcare business network. Compliance with one or more healthcare regulations is built into the blockchain framework. Responsive to a cloud operations component within the healthcare blockchain framework attaching at least one evidence record to a compliance repository, the blockchain application stores the at least one evidence record in the compliance repository using chaincode within the healthcare blockchain framework. A compliance attestation component within the healthcare blockchain framework reviews the at least one evidence record using business rules to ensure compliance with the one or more healthcare regulations. The compliance attestati…
