Leveraging smartphones’ capabilities, we present a standard-based process for seamless medical data transfer to Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs). A core component is the caller identification through Decentralised Identifiers (DIDs). By verifying the phone number and linking it with a government-issued ID, we can achieve both prompt identification and trustworthiness of the caller. The sources for medical data are multifaceted. Self-attestation offers the primary input, wherein users enter their data themselves. However, to expand the depth and breadth of available data, it is now possible to interface with health applications and sensors on smartphones via Apple Health and Google Fit. Beyond that, integrating data from health professionals and institutions can provide a comprehensive medical profile on a user’s smartphone. For the secure and efficient transmission of data, a standard-based exchange is crucial and our approach is based on ETSI TS 103 698. Using cryptographically strong W3C Verifiable Credentials, issuers (healthcare providers) transfer medical data to holders (the emergency callers) who store it on their smartphones. When a PSAP requires this data, a Verifiable Presentation facilitates its transmission from the holder to the verifier, ensuring data integrity, authenticity, and preventing misuse of the information. In summary, with the integration of DIDs, Verifiable Data, diverse medical data sources, and standardised data exchange, we can improve emergency responses, making them faster, more personalised, and ultimately more effective. *Optional - Feel free to share with us any links towards a similar presentation/document that has already been done:* results from an ongoing EU research project: https://trustchain.ngi.eu/im4dec/ ## Internal Comment reach out to Jerome after submission and mention dissemination activity for ongoing NGI project
