Verichip
Patient ID implantable:
VeriMed features VeriChip's patented, FDA-cleared,
human-implantable RFID microchip. Unlike traditional
forms of identification, the VeriChip can't be lost,
stolen, misplaced, or counterfeited. Because it's
inserted under the skin, it's always there when you
need it regardless of where other kinds of identification
might be.
Using a handheld reader, healthcare professionals
are able to securely access a patient's unique VeriChip
ID number which can be looked up in a designated secure
healthcare information database, allowing them to
immediately take the safest course of action.
