Uploading documents for easy access:

A healthcare directive is only helpful if it can be located when it is needed. Through Ematai’s partnership with the United States Care Plan Registry (USACPR), you can securely store your healthcare directive online so that it is available in an emergency. Registration also includes an Ematai Emergency Contact Card and wallet stickers that identify who should be contacted if you are unable to communicate with your healthcare team.

How does uploading my healthcare directive work?

Once you have signed your Robert M. Beren Healthcare Directive, you can register to upload your document to the United States Care Plan Registry.  Registration is a small one-time fee (with the Ematai discount) and gives your lifetime registry access from anywhere in the world.

To register: Fill in your personal information as requested on the USACPR/Ematai page. Once you have submitted your payment, you will follow the options to upload your directive.

Once your documents have been uploaded, you will receive a confirmation letter in the mail with your emergency cards. You will also periodically receive reminders from USACPR to review and update your directive as needed.

About the Ematai Emergency Contact Card

The Ematai Emergency Contact Card is designed to help healthcare providers quickly identify who should be contacted if you experience a medical emergency. It also indicates that your healthcare directive is securely stored with USACPR and provides instructions for accessing it. Your registration will allow the healthcare facility to have access to your legally-binding proxy form from anyone in the world.  

If you have any questions about accessing your USACPR account or editing or removing your documents please reach out to USACPR at admin@usacpr.com.

Previously Registered with HODS?

In the past, the Halachic Organ Donor Society (HODS) issued a wallet card that included your name, photograph, emergency contact information, and your preferences regarding organ donation.

Please note:

• Ematai does not maintain records of individuals who previously registered for HODS cards.
• Ematai cannot replace lost HODS cards or update existing HODS cards.
• The HODS card is not a legal healthcare proxy or advance healthcare directive.
• Unlike the Robert M. Beren Healthcare Directive stored with USACPR, the HODS card does not provide healthcare providers with access to a legally binding healthcare directive.
