Here is the Idea Summary from Malblar:

Problem: Around the world, countries are moving towards creating centralised electronic health record (EHR) databases with Singapore and Australia leading the way in recent years. Personalised RFID cards have been suggested as a means of providing patient identification and medical records in a hospital setting, however RFID cards are inherently not secure.

Solution: ETRI have developed an RFID technology that is able to store both publically accessible and private information. Such RFID cards could be held by patients and used as a method of identifying themselves at a doctor’s surgery by containing a secure, encrypted password that would link with records held on a centralised database. The publicly accessible portion of the RFID tag could include information on the carrier's name, blood group and emergency contact details for use in an accident.
Now we need to discuss how best to create a product tailored to currently existing EHR systems.

Found this idea and think its very important from our Crypto perspective, any thoughts?
