I’m all about privacy. I don’t like to share personal info with anyone. I shred and have identity protection on all of my credit cards. But what if all your medical information was being carried around on a business card sized USB flash drive. The Wallet MediCard is an ultra slim USB flash card that will fit not only medical documentation in the card, you can even fill out personal health records on the outside of it as well. So if you lose this card not only are you losing valuable information about your medical records you’re bound to loose alot more. Is something like this the wave of the future? For obvious privacy concerns, the whole concept is making us nervous.

Emergency Medical Technicians are trained to look for necklaces or wrist bands if they respond to someone being unconscious. I have diabetes, and I wear a Medicalert necklace. Not all of these necklaces and bracelets are as ugly or obvious as you might expect.
Medicalert is a subscription service, and you set you medical conditions, doctors, drugs, and emergency contents for your subscription. Each ID you order has your unique anonymous ID and an 800 number for the hospital to call to get your records. In addition, these ID’s are engraved with your condition so that the EMT will know on the spot.
I’m not affiliated with them, but I am a subscriber. Thankfully, I’ve never tested this service, but I feel safer knowing someone can speak for me if I can’t. Their web site is:

As someone with severe medical conditions, I am VERY interested in this card. While it may seem like a privacy issue to someone without such conditions, it’s a potential lifesaver for those of us who do have them. The card would carry a lot more information than a MedicAlert bracelet, and doesn’t require an ongoing payment. I am seriously considering this product.
