MedicAlert Foundation is a nonprofit established in 1956 that originated the medical ID concept and its associated emergency response service. It operates an emergency ID and health information network that provides first responders with essential medical details during urgent situations. Medical IDs link to a secure personal health record and are supported by a 24/7 U.S.-based emergency response team. In emergencies, MedicAlert can share key information such as medical conditions, medications, or devices and can notify loved ones to help reunite families. Based in Turlock, California, the organization serves individuals who require rapid access to medical data in emergencies and works with first responders and healthcare providers to improve care delivery. In March 2026, MedicAlert announced a collaboration with Fulcrum Therapeutics and the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America to facilitate emergency department care for people with sickle cell disease by providing rapid access to patient-specific care plans.
