Abstract
Usage of various systems for Electronic Healthcare Record (EHR) is increased in recent years. Majority of the hospitals and other laboratories requires health data sets during the treatment process. For enhancing the standard of the services provided by these health centers, the electronic health records should be shared so that it can be used by various users based on their requirements. Various researches have been done in the past for enhancing the security and privacy of these EHR data. Even though, it is not completely achieved. In this paper, a novel framework for maintaining the security and privacy of the EHR data based on agent based system is proposed. The agent based system consists of various intelligent agents such as the user interface agent, authentication agent, connection establishment agent and the connection management agent with distinct and expedient working features. These intelligent agents make ease of use, effective communication between patients/users and the E-service providers. This system monitors the data flow and focuses on various security and privacy concerns that the e-healthcare environment is facing.
