<DIV>Just to clarify. the medic alert emblem doesn’t have any electronic
chips. The information gets engraved on and is visually read off by an
emergency worker in the instance you might need it. </DIV>

<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>

633-4298 </FONT></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><FONT
face="Times New Roman"><FONT style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">6-5 Monday through Friday
2-5 Saturdays. California time</FONT></FONT></P>

<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>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Stay cool and talk soon. </P>
