Should I get cards for my children?
Children are added to the parent’s coverage for the same reasons a spouse or parent is included. Being able to provide information on a child with a clean bill of health, taking no medications, and with no allergies provides valuable information to emergency personnel to enable prompt medical intervention when you are not with your child. And if your child is on medications, the Portrait Health system provides an easy-to-use and convenient means of maintaining medication names and dosages.
If your young child or adult child is admitted to the hospital or emergency room, you can be designated as the person to contact.
