Abstract: Abstract This paper describes blockchain based architecture for the Human Organ Transplantation, to provide a trustworthy mechanism that will make sure a fair distribution of organs available. Transparency and auto tracking features of blockchain will make sure that no single party controls the priority of recipients in the waiting list. Every transaction is visible to all those who are having access to the system. It can also ensure a control on the organ trafficking and provide a reliable and secure exchange mechanism for recipient and donor health records. It can greatly revolutionize the transplantation network with greater efficiency by allowing every entity to directly verify the transaction records by eliminating many of the intermediaries as we know them today.
