Managing personal and medical data

Your profile consists of personal master data and your medical history. Both appear in an emergency (depending on the tariff) for helpers and Doctors. Personal Data Open Personal Data in the user menu and stay in the My Data tab. There the information is divided into several cards: - Under Personal Data you maintain photo, name, date of birth, gender, height, weight, eye color, language skills and display languages. - Under Contact details you maintain address and telephone numbers. - Under Health insurance you can store your health insurance company, insurance number and health insurance number. - Under Email address you change your login address; the new address must then be confirmed. Select Save changes in each card. A recent photo will help first responders match you to the correct emergency profile. Medical History Under Medical Profile → Medical History you can maintain your health information in categories: - Allergies - Intolerances - Medications - Chronic Conditions / Diagnostics - Disabilities - Implants - Surgeries - Vaccinations - Doctors Add a category 1. Select Add to Medical History. 2. Select the category you want to add. 3. Enter the required fields and, if appropriate, Notes — optional in your primary language. 4. Select Continue if a translation step is offered. 5. Check the content of the language versions and activate Translations reviewed. 6. Select Save. The entry will then appear in the relevant category. Multilingualism You enter the information in your main language; for your other display languages, translatable free texts are automatically suggested. Selection lists such as Allergy triggers or vaccination types are already linguistically stored. You can check and adjust suggested translations. A profile language is available in the free scope; during the test phase and with Lifetime, all eight supported profile languages are available. Edit or delete entries Select Edit for the existing entry, change the information and select Save. With Delete you can remove an entry. Do not create the same medical issue twice. Tip: Keep Allergies, Medications and important diagnoses up to date – these are the details that count most in an emergency. Open Personal Data · Open Medical History

Setting up emergency contacts

Emergency contacts are people who speak for you in an emergency or can be additionally informed. Medical ID has exactly three fixed places for this. Whether notifications are sent also depends on your settings and the fully stored contact details. Create contact 1. Open the Emergency contacts section. 2. Select one of the Representative, Additional representative, or Also inform tabs. 3. Enter the mandatory information. This includes name, address, country, mobile number, email address and at least one language. 4. Select Save and then Send invitation. Before sending, Medical ID will show an email preview. Confirmation by the contact (important) For data protection reasons, your contact will be informed by e-mail and must actively confirm their data and the intended function: - The person receives an e-mail with information about which of the three roles they have been stored for. - She checks her data and actively confirms. - It has 14 days to confirm. If the time runs out, you can use the Resend invitation. Once confirmed, the seat will be displayed as Confirmed; until then, it will say Confirmation pending. Resend invitation If a contact hasn't confirmed yet, you can resend the invitation – the contact will have 14 days again. What are the three Emergency contacts? The three places are fixed and cannot be freely named or expanded: - Representative in health matters – first point of contact with the representative role described in the form. - Additional representative in health matters – second contact person with a representative role. - Also inform – additional person to be informed. Whether contacts are notified during a scan depends on the plan, settings, and existing contact information. Privacy notice for contact Confirmed the invitee has their data and role, the seat will be displayed as Confirmed. Without confirmation, Confirmation pending will remain visible. If a contact takes responsibility after a later request, their data will be stored for another 12 months; unconfirmed or expired invitations will be cleaned up after the specified deadlines.

Advance Directive

Medical ID automatically creates your Advance Directive as a PDF – or you can upload an existing one. Variant 1: Create with Medical ID In the generator, your Advance Directive is automatically created as a PDF. The legal sections have already been checked; you add your personal free text and your information. Procedure: 1. Open Advance Directive → Directive and select Create with Medical ID. 2. Select Start or Open Generator. 3. Fill in the required fields. Name and date of birth are from Personal Data; complete your medical Instructions, representation details, and place and date. 4. Put your signature under My signature. 5. Select Save and recreate PDFs – the PDF will be generated and saved per display language. Free text and languages - What you write in the current language in the text field will be automatically translated into your other languages (DeepL) when you save it. - If you want a different source language, first select the tab of that language at the top and write there. - Alternatively, you can maintain each language yourself in manual mode. Option 2: Upload your own directive Already have a Advance Directive? Open Advance Directive → Directive, select Upload your own directive and then Upload. Upload the file as a PDF per language. Up to 2 pages are possible in the free version, up to 4 pages during the trial period and with Lifetime. A file can be no larger than 10 MB. Select the correct document language in the tab bar. You can replace or delete an uploaded Advance Directive later. Then check PDF Preview or in the download to see if the correct version is stored. Treatment Instructions / Blood Products In the treatment instructions, you can specify detailed wishes (e.g. for blood and blood components). If you activate this list, you will have to fill it out completely – incomplete information can lead to your treatment request not being taken into account in emergencies. Tariff notice With a Free account you only download/create the Advance Directive in your residence language. With Lifetime you unlock all languages. Download You can download a Advance Directive created with the generator under Downloads per language via With signature or Without signature. On the other hand, you can open or download a self-uploaded Advance Directive in the Advance Directive → Directive area. Open Advance Directive · Open Downloads

Dashboard confirmations and implants

Confirm note "Carefully weighed" The reference can refer to two different areas: - Health information: Open Medical Profile → Quick Check and select Use Quick Check? Yes. Then confirm with Understood, continue in the hint window and answer each point. - Treatment instructions: Open Advance Directive → Instructions and select Yes at Use these instructions?. Then confirm with Understood, continue in the notification window and check each item. The confirmation is not a permanently visible button of its own. It appears as a notification window as soon as the respective area is activated to Yes. Implant: Confirm body site and translation In the case of an implant, the part of the body is first entered in the form. If several profile languages are active, a separate translation step follows after Next: 1. Check the part of the body in all the languages displayed. 2. Check the box next to Translations reviewed. 3. Then select Save. If a note has also been entered, the same check step for the note follows beforehand. The display of the body part in the translation step does not mean that it has to be re-entered. The value in the main language is intentionally read-only there; only the translations can be corrected. Open Quick Check · Open Treatment Instructions · Open Implants

Updating, replacing and deleting documents

Stored information and Documents do not remain unchangeable. You can edit or remove personal and medical information at any time in the respective profile area. You can later replace a self-uploaded Advance Directive via Replace file or remove it with Delete. First, select the correct document language. Up to 2 PDF pages are possible in the free scope, up to 4 pages during the trial phase and with Lifetime; maximum 10 MB per file. During the trial period and with Lifetime, you can also store up to four additional document pages. Each slot holds exactly one PDF page or image in JPG, PNG or WebP format up to 10 MB. Select Replace to update an occupied slot or Delete to empty it. A new version does not automatically replace a document in another language.

Downloads and the medical profile PDF

In the Downloads area, you can output your documents. This includes a Advance Directive created with the generator – With signature or without signature depending on the selection – and My medical profile. For the profile, first select the desired display language under Choose language and then Download profile as PDF. The profile PDF is compiled in this order: 1. personal data and Emergency contacts, 2. Table of Contents, 3. active treatment instructions, 4. Active Quick Check, 5. Medical History, 6. the Advance Directive, 7. Other Documents in their slot order. Areas that are not activated or not released due to the tariff are not displayed. The Advance Directive and other Documents are attached to the profile as attachments; they are therefore not lost when the profile is downloaded. If content is missing despite saved information, first check the selected language, the tariff and whether Quick Check or treatment instructions are fully activated and confirmed. Then refresh the page and create the file again. If the PDF remains incomplete, report only the affected category to support and no medical details in the normal chat. Downloads and open profile PDF
