1. An electronic health record data blockchain system configured to process a prescription transaction for a patient, comprising:
one or more computer-readable storage media configured to store a blockchain;
a computer system comprising one or more processors programmed to execute computer program instructions that, when executed, cause the computer system to:
receive a query related to a patient, the query including patient identifying information associated with the patient;
generate, in response to a determination that a current record exists for the patient, a first single-purpose patient ID (SPPID) for a patient, wherein the first SPPID enables the electronic health record data blockchain system to use the first SPPID instead of the patient identifying information, and the first SPPID can be used only until the prescription transaction is completed;
receive a first electronic prescription having a plurality of parameters from an electronic medical record system;
initiate a first prescription transaction on the blockchain using the first electronic prescription, the first SPPID, and no patient-identifying information;
generate a smart contract configured to determine whether any drug interactions exist such that changes need to be made to the prescription and write an edit record to the blockchain;
generate a close record indicating a drug and a price to be paid and write the close record to the blockchain;
initiate one or more digital currency transactions related to the prescription transaction once the close record has been written to the blockchain;
abandon use of the first SPPID after the close record has been written to the blockchain, wherein abandoning the use of the first SPPID after the close record has been written to the blockchain prevents exposure of information from a subsequent prescription transaction associated with another SPPID, such that any potential compromise of the first SPPID compromises information from the first prescription transaction and not the subsequent prescription transaction.
