MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641007716 A) filed by Meenakshi Academy Of Higher Education And Research, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on Jan. 27, for 'a system and method for secure medical record management and access control.'
Inventor(s) include Aravind P; Parameshwar Keerthi B. H; Kavitha M; and Pugazhendhi S.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A System and Method for Secure Medical Record Management and Access Control The present disclosure relates to a system and method for safely managing and controlling access to medical records that lets people access electronic medical records in distributed healthcare settings in a controlled, accountable, and context-aware way. The system has a processor that works with a secure medical record vault, a context-adaptive access control engine, a patient-defined policy orchestration module, a cryptographic key management module, a secure device attestation module, and an audit ledger that shows when someone has tampered with it. Access to medical records is dynamically granted based on real-time contextual factors, device integrity, and patient-defined consent policies, as opposed to fixed role-based permissions. To stop unauthorized reconstruction, encrypted and segmented medical records are only decrypted using session-specific cryptographic keys. All access events are logged in a way that can't be changed, and they are watched all the time to find any strange behavior and revoke access when necessary. The system and method that were revealed offer better data security, less unauthorized access, better auditability, and a clear technical answer for managing healthcare data in a safe and legal way."
