<DIV>Hi folks: </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I finally got around to getting a Medic Alert membership & id bracelet
for myself so thought I’d share some of the information about Medic Alert if any
of you are so inclined to set this up for yourself. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I found the web site over-whelming with the amount of stuff they have so I
just called them and got the bare-bones basics. But, if you want to go and
nosey around on their web site to find out what they offer, here is their
contact information: </DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">The cost for a basic annual
membership is $50.00. With becoming a member I bought the basic stainless
steel bracelet with oval Medic Alert emblem. I got a red emblem which is
their traditional color, but they offer other colors like black, purple, pink,
etc. My opinion only is its not great jewelry so I just wanted to keep it
simple. The cost of the basic stainless bracelet is $10 plus the membership for
a total of $60.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Oh yes, the shipping is around $7
so the grand total is $67. </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">The $50 membership entitles you
to unlimited updates on your information for 1 year. You can list multiple
conditions like diabetes, type 1 or 2, blindness or legally blind, high blood
pressure. I think you are limited to what will fit on the emblem – I got
the small one and could list 4 things. These conditions get engraved onto
the emblem and because it is personalized it is not refundable. It will
also spell out their 1-800 number and your own id number. The size of the
bracelet goes from about 5-inches up to I think she told me 10-Inches (the sizes
I might be off on so call if you need to know) </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">With your account they will take
a list of all your meds, important doctors like primary &/or diabetic,
&/or cardiologist. You can list 1 or 2 emergency contacts. </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">They offer other types of jewelry
link necklaces, dog tags, leather, beaded bands or even gold and sterling silver
but you will pay a lot more for these choices.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">So hope this helps. The
annual fee of $50 must get paid once every year in order to be able to keep your
information updated for emergencies when you can’t communicate this type of
information for yourself.</P>
