Why it matters

Emergencies happen without warning

A car accident, sudden illness, or mental health crisis can leave you unable to communicate your own medical history. Emergency access ensures the right people can help.

Limited scope by design

Emergency contacts only see what they need – your critical health information – not your full profile, financial information, or consent history.

You set it up in advance

Emergency access is configured by you, when you're calm and in control. It doesn't require you to be present or conscious to activate.

Medicines and allergies

A current medicine list and allergy record is one of the most important pieces of health information you carry. CareFile keeps it accurate, accessible, and easy to share when a new provider needs it.

Control and sharing

Sharing permissions

Sharing health and care information should be a deliberate choice, not a default. CareFile lets you decide exactly what to share, with whom, and for how long – and revoke it at any time.

Control and sharing

Privacy controls

Privacy in CareFile is not a setting you turn on – it's the default state. Sensitive identifiers and records are masked until you choose to reveal them, giving you control at every interaction.
