What exactly is someone supposed to put on their Medic Alert bracelets/necklaces?

Question

I'm not sure exactly what it's supposed to say on Medic Alert jewelry. I mean, I know it's supposed to list conditions that might affect you and need medical attention in an emergency, or tell you to check a card that some people carry with them, but what exactly does it say? Is there a symbol for each condition, or a special code, or does it just say "Diabetes"?

Answer 2

On the back of your jewelry, the names of your conditions and or allergies are engraved.  If your condition has a common abbreviation like MVP for Mitral Valve Prolapse for example, they will list it with the abbreviation.  Also a phone number for medical personnel to call to access your file with your complete information is also listed as well as your id number.  If you decide to sign up, they ask for a list of all your conditions and allergies and they decide on what to put on the bracelet.
