您不得不带着装满钞票、社会保障卡、驾驶执照、信用卡、会员卡和其他重要个人身份证明的笨重钱包四处走动的日子已经一去不复返了。
使用 iPhone，您可以使用移动支付应用程序(mobile payment apps)支付购物、停车、水电费、购买通话时间、浏览互联网等等。它随身携带，甚至整夜坐在你身边。
最好的部分是它也可以照顾你。在您最不希望发生的紧急情况下，紧急服务人员会想知道您是谁，而您可能无法交谈，甚至无法引导他们获取您的信息。
借助 iOS 中内置的Apple Health功能，您可以通过将紧急医疗信息记录到 iPhone 上来为这些和其他此类紧急情况做好准备，以便医护人员可以轻松找到您的信息。
通过设置您的健康档案，您可以高枕无忧，因为任何重要的医疗信息和直系亲属的详细信息都只需轻按几下即可。
什么是 Apple 健康应用程序？
Apple Health 是您所有数字健康数据的单一来源(single source)，包括体重(weight)、睡眠(sleep)、慢性病和许多其他与健康相关的活动。
该应用程序中有一个重要的安全功能，称为医疗 ID(Medical ID )，其作用类似于虚拟医疗卡，可以通知紧急响应人员有关您的信息。如果您熟悉推荐的“紧急情况下(In Case of Emergency)” ( ICE ) 做法，您就会知道在手机上包含重要的联系信息有助于在紧急情况下联系到您的家人。
Medical ID 是ICE的增强版本，其中包含重要的医疗信息，医护人员可以使用这些信息进行最相关的医疗，从而更容易挽救您的生命。
您可以将以下信息存储在您的医疗 ID 中，只需按一下按钮即可在 iPhone 的锁定屏幕上查看这些信息：
- 您的姓名和出生日期（带有Apple ID照片）。
- 已知(Known)的医疗状况、过敏和反应。
- 您目前正在服用的任何药物。
- 与您的健康状况相关(Relevant)的医疗记录。
- 体重和身高。
- 血型。
- 紧急(Emergency)联系人或直系亲属的详细信息。
并非所有护理人员都知道该功能的存在，但考虑到它是在 2014 年随 iOS 8 添加到 iPhone 中(added to the iPhone in 2014 with iOS 8)的，很可能大多数医疗专业人员近年来已经更加意识到它。
您可能担心所有这些个人医疗数据不能仅限于紧急救援人员，因为任何可以访问您 iPhone 的人都可以根据需要找到您的医疗 ID(Medical ID)。
虽然没有硬性和快速的解决方案，但不寻找此类信息的人不太可能找到它，因为它不会解锁 iPhone 本身。但是，如果您想使用该功能，则必须进行交易。
请记住，您 iPhone 上的医疗 ID(Medical ID)并不能代替您始终将医疗信息的书面副本放在口袋或钱包中。紧急情况下的第一响应者可能不知道如何检查您的手机，手机可能会在您最需要的时候失去电池并关机。(battery)
医疗 ID(Medical ID)是一项有用的安全功能，但您应该主要将其用作备份。

医疗 ID 是通过Health应用程序配置的，因此您的 iPhone 至少需要运行 iOS 8 才能使用该功能。

How To Set Up Your Health Profile On Your iPhone
Gonе are the days when you had to walk around with a bulky wallet packed with banknotes, a social security card, drivеr’s license, credit cards, membership cards, and other important pieces of personal identіficatіon.
With your iPhone, you can pay for your shopping, parking, utility bills, buy airtime, browse the internet, and much more, using mobile payment apps. It goes everywhere with you, and even sits by your side through the night.
The best part is it can take care of you too. During emergencies, which happen when you least expect it, emergency services will want to know who you are and you may not be in a position to talk, or even direct them to your information.
Thanks to the Apple Health feature built into iOS, you can be prepared for these and other such emergencies by logging your emergency medical information onto your iPhone so that paramedics can find your information easily.
By setting up your health profile, you can rest easy knowing that any vital medical information and next of kin details are a few taps away.
What Is The Apple Health App?
Apple Health is the single source for all your digital health data including weight, sleep, chronic conditions, and many other health-related activities.
Within the app is an important safety feature called Medical ID that acts like a virtual medical card, which can inform emergency response staff about you. If you’re familiar with the recommended “In Case of Emergency” (ICE) practice, you already know that including important contact information on your phone helps reach your family during an emergency.
Medical ID is an enhanced version of ICE that contains vital medical information, which paramedics can use to administer the most relevant medical treatment, making it easier to save your life.
You can store the following information in your Medical ID, which is viewable from your iPhone’s lock screen at the touch of a button:
- Your name and date of birth (with Apple ID photo).
- Known medical conditions, allergies and reactions.
- Any medication you’re currently on.
- Relevant medical notes related to your medical condition.
- Weight and height.
- Blood type.
- Emergency contact or next of kin details.
Not all paramedics are aware of the feature’s existence, but considering it was added to the iPhone in 2014 with iOS 8, it’s likely that most medical professionals have become more aware of it in recent years.
You may be concerned that all this personal medical data can’t be limited to strictly emergency personnel as anyone who can access your iPhone can find your Medical ID if they want.
While there’s no hard and fast solution to this, someone who isn’t looking for such information isn’t likely to find it because it doesn’t unlock the iPhone itself. However, if you want to use the feature, it’s a trade you’ll have to make.
Keep in mind that your Medical ID on your iPhone doesn’t replace having a written copy of your medical information in your pocket or wallet at all times. There’s a possibility that the first responder in an emergency doesn’t know how to check your phone, and phones can lose battery and go off when you need it the most.
The Medical ID is a useful safety feature, but you should use it mostly as a backup.
Setting Up Your Health Profile On Your iPhone
Medical ID is configured through the Health app so your iPhone needs to be running at least iOS 8 to use the feature.
- To get started, launch Health app on your iPhone (If you’re not sure where to find it, swipe left on your home screen and type in “Apple Health” in the search engine at the top. Tap on it to open).
- Tap Medical ID at the lower right side of the screen. You can also go to Contacts, tap on your name and then tap Create Medical ID at the bottom.
The app will detect and populate your information based on your contact card. By default, it’ll be empty with only your name and birth date if you provided this information in iOS Contacts.
- Before you add any information, enable the Show When Locked option on this screen, otherwise your Medical ID won’t show on the lockscreen, and won’t be accessible when it’s really needed.
- Add, remove or change your information, keeping in mind the privacy implications of what you share. Your name, date of birth and Apple ID photo can be used to positively identify you.
- Scroll down to the very bottom and fill in the Organ donor section, which states whether or not you’re an organ donor.
- Next is the Emergency Contacts section where you’ll put in your next-of-kin’s contact details, if you haven’t done so already.
- Tap Add Emergency Contact and choose your next-of-kin from the iPhone contacts list to add their details to your Medical ID. Make sure they’re already in your iPhone contacts.
- Select Done at the upper right side of the screen to save changes, and exit the Health app.
- Check your lockscreen to see how your Medical ID looks like and how a first responder would access it. To do this, tap your Home screen button and then tap Emergency at the bottom.
The number keypad will appear, from which you can make emergency calls, and at the bottom, you’ll see Medical ID in red. Tap on it to open the Medical ID.
Note: if Touch ID is enabled on your iPhone, use a different finger to open the Medical ID screen; otherwise it’ll keep unlocking the phone.
Your designated emergency contacts are also listed further down the screen, so whoever is viewing your health profile just needs to tap the contact name to make an instant call on your phone to that person.
Select Done when you’re finished reviewing your Medical ID information.
Remember to back up your health data and keep your medical information up-to-date at all times.
