New Credit Card Style Portable Storage Introduced for Medical Records
Med Records to Go(tm) stores health information vital to care providers. PR9.NET September 20, 2007 - San Diego, CA - A recently released computer application called Med Records to Go(tm), that stores electronic medical records, can help reduce errors in emergency conditions, as well as in hospital or medical clinic admissions. Introduced by the Vital Record Corporation in November, 2006, Med Records to GoTM uses flash drive technology to record and store health information for emergency viewing by medical personnel. In addition to the standard "thumb" style flash drive, a new credit card style flash drive is now available for the storage of medical records. The credit card flash drive can be conveniently carried in a wallet or purse. The card drive is slightly thicker than a conventional credit card and can hold up to 64MB of Med Records to Go(tm) medical information. For attachment to a computer, the drive includes an imbedded connector in the body of the card style unit. The connector is simply snapped out of the card body and plugged into the standard port of a computer. When disconnected from the computer, the connector is snapped back into the body. Thus, the connector does not hang loose for possible breakage if the unit is mishandled or if carried in a wallet or purse. The Med Records to Go(tm) computer application is the same application that resides on the standard "thumb" style flash drive. All software, controls, and electronic medical records are contained in the credit card style unit. The health information is kept private and secure and not vulnerable to access on the public Internet. For additional security, the medical data stored in the card style unit is encrypted and cannot be read using any other application. No Internet connection to an external organization is ever required to place medical information on the credit card style unit. The Med Records to GoTM application of the card unit provides direct update and access to a person's health information, including such information as identification, medications, doctors, caregivers, insurance carriers, and family history. Other medical disclosure information is also provided, such as DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) orders, living and testamentary trusts and wills. Additionally, a digital photograph of the owner may be recorded as part of the medical data. Emergency medical personnel have immediate access to the health information by browsing the various pages contained on the credit card style storage unit. No special application knowledge is required to view the data because a standard Internet browser is used. As an option, the health information can be stored on a cell phone and subsequently displayed using key selection available on the phone. The additional cell phone feature of Med Records to Go(tm) incorporates the transmission of electronic medical records from the credit card storage unit to a standard cell phone. A temporary Internet connection is required to send the medical data in encrypted form to the Vital Record Corporation server before placement on the cell phone. In addition to medical data encryption, user identification and password controls are used for storing and retrieving the medical data from the Vital Record server.
