In an emergency having immediate access to your healthcare information can be a matter of life and death.

*A 2016 John Hopkins study estimated that more than 250,000 deaths per year in the U.S. are due to medical errors, making it the third leading cause of death after heart disease and cancer. *
In a medical emergency doctors and healthcare providers sometimes have minutes, or even seconds, to make life altering decisions about the best care to provide based on the limited medical information they have. Doctors are having to start from scratch or responding blindly because they don’t have immediate access to patient’s relevant information in front of them. Critical information such as past medical history, allergies, immunizations, or current medications can oftentimes be the deciding factor in life-or-death situations. Don’t trust you or your loved one’s memory. Enroll with Universal Health Charts and give you or your loved ones a fighting chance to get the proper care you deserve.
