Abstract
The widespread use of Blockchain technology (BT) in nations that are developing remains in its early stages, necessitating a more comprehensive evaluation using efficient and adaptable approaches. The need for digitalization to boost operational effectiveness is growing in the healthcare sector. Despite BT's potential as a competitive option for the healthcare sector, insufficient research has prevented it being fully utilised. This study intends to identify the main sociological, economical, and infrastructure obstacles to BT adoption in developing nations' public health systems. To accomplish this goal, the study employs a multi-level analysis of blockchain hurdles using hybrid approach. The study's findings provide decision- makers with guidance on how to proceed, as well as insight into implementation challenges.
