Protect Your Family
Modern healthcare - often miraculous - can be dangerous with so many medications and procedures. It is estimated that 100,000 people die yearly in the U.S. due to medical errors.* Additionally, people are sometimes "kept alive" with machines against their wishes.
"As an ER physician I've cared for thousands of patients without their medical information or advanced directives: scary for everyone involved. I decided there must be a better and safer way. With the help of engineers we created software that runs on a USB flash drive: the MEDICAL PASSPORT. The MEDICAL PASSPORT is a personal, portable, electronic health record that can be used on any computer to display critical medical and safety information."
W. Shaun Gogarty, MD
