Systems, Methods, and Apparatus for Facilitating Access to Medical Information
First Claim
1. A contactless transaction device for facilitating access to medical information, comprising:
- an antenna operable to electromagnetically receive and transmit data;
a microchip in communication with the antenna, the microchip comprising a memory operable to store consumer account data and medical data, wherein in association with a transaction using the contactless transaction device, the microchip is operable to;
receive a transaction request from a requestor via the antenna, wherein the transaction request comprises either a consumer account transaction type or a medical information transaction type;
separately determine whether the requestor is authorized to receive the consumer account data and whether the requestor is authorized to receive the medical data;
if the transaction request comprises the consumer account transaction type and if the requestor is authorized to receive the consumer account data, transmit the consumer account data from the memory to the requestor via the antenna; and
if the transaction request comprises the medical information transaction type and if the requestor is authorized to receive the medical data, transmit the medical data from the memory to the requestor via the antenna.

Abstract
Embodiments of the invention may relate to systems, methods, and apparatus for facilitating access to medical information. In one embodiment, a method of facilitating access to medical data stored on a contactless transaction device may include transmitting to a contactless transaction device a transaction request comprising either a consumer account transaction type or a medical information transaction type. If the transaction request comprises the consumer account transaction type, the consumer account data may be received from the contactless transaction device, responsive to a determination that the transaction terminal is authorized to receive data associated with the transaction request type. If the transaction request comprises the medical information transaction type, the medical data may be received from the contactless transaction device, responsive to a determination that the transaction terminal is authorized to receive data associated with the transaction request type.
