System and method for providing access to electronically stored medical information

摘要

A method and system for storing medical information of an individual with a service provider and providing access to that medical information to first responders and medical personnel remotely. An individual's medical information may be accessed by first responders after being authenticated by the service provider. Access to the medical information is monitored to prevent unauthorized access and to store time and location when medical information is accessed by a first responder. The medical information may be accessed by a mobile software application that allows the first responder to scan a machine-readable medium linked to the individual's medical information stored by the service provider.
