Abstract: A system comprising an online database for personal, medical, appointment and other information; means for accessing that database using SSL encrypted links across the global internet; a portable ID card containing written and encoded information that is formatted to support an updateable provider printed and authenticated appliqué; and multiple means for delivering the information contained in the database to a wide variety of recipients on-demand is proposed. The intent of the system is to allow subscribers and providers to privately collaborate on treatments, while still allowing rapid and easy access to certain critical information in the event of an immediate need. The subscriber has the ability to designate service providers and enable their access.

Abstract: A method of registering information for a user in a centralized user database (24) accessible by a plurality of subscribers. The method comprises establishing a first internet site (12) having a first plurality of identity fields (14) for inputting user information into and a second internet site (32) having a second plurality of identity fields (34) and linking both to the centralized user database (24). The method further includes a master list of identity fields (26) for comparing the first plurality of identity fields (14) and the second plurality of identity fields (34). The method is characterized by populating the user information registered in the centralized user database (24) from the first internet site (12) to the second plurality of identity fields (34) on the second internet site (32). The second internet site (32) may have one additional identity field (40) different than the first plurality of identity fields (14) and identity fields which are unique to the second internet site (32).
