Using Health Records, American veterans with an iPhone will see their medical information from participating institutions—including the VA—organized in the Health app.

We have great admiration for veterans, and we’re proud to bring a solution like Health Records on iPhone to the veteran community. It’s truly an honor to contribute to the improved healthcare of America’s heroes.

Tim Cook, Apple CEO

Records data includes allergies, conditions, immunizations, lab results, medications, procedures and vitals, and is displayed along with other information in the Health app like Apple Watch data. Records are also encrypted and protected with the iPhone passcode, and Touch ID/Face ID.
