Personal health records are somewhat shrouded in mystery for the average consumer, so the eMedica Card is designed to allow them to keep their records on hand for personal use.

Whether to be utilized at a new doctor, while traveling or to be disclosed in an emergency, the eMedica Card works by keeping your information encrypted on the card. When accessed, the eMedica Card is capable of keeping information from your doctor, dentist, chiropractor and much more neatly organized within.

The eMedica Card also allows users to update their personal health records themselves rather than rely on just preexisting files in offices and hospitals. The eMedica Card can be purchased outright or used on a subscription basis.
