identifying entities associated with one or more medically significant conditions based on utilizing machine learning to scan through the non-standardized data;

performing diagnoses based on the identified entities to determine the one or more medically significant conditions associated with the member; and

determining the one or more trends based on the identified entities, the one or more medically significant conditions, and a personal health record associated with the member;

based on the request for the member information being valid, generating, by the server and using the standardized data, a member care file comprising updated member information, wherein the updated member information includes the one or more trends; and

providing, by the server, the member care file to the EMS device in real time so that a user of the EMS device has immediate access to the member care file.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the EMS profile includes a first responders profile, wherein the first responders profile includes an organization name, a staff name, a staff role, and/or an organization location.

3. The method according to claim 2 , further comprising:

authenticating the EMS device by associating the first responders profile with the EMS device.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the non-standardized data comprises non-standardized medical claims and medical records, and wherein the member information further includes at least one of medical history, medical insurance, work address, home address, provider preferences, medication, and vital signs.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the EMS profile is valid only for a limited time period.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the request for the member information is valid only for a limited time period.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein receiving the trigger information comprises:

receiving, from the EMS device, the trigger information, wherein

the trigger information further includes at least one of a timestamp and an EMS crew comprising the user.

8. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

aggregating institution information including current hospital availability and/or treatment specialties;

providing, to the EMS device, the institution information; and

updating the member information based on the institution information and the one or more trends.

9. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

logging an attempt in an access log after receiving the trigger information.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein generating the member care file comprises:

performing anomaly detection and removing incorrect information in the member information to obtain verified member information;

scrubbing medically irrelevant data from the verified member information;

identifying medically relevant data in the verified member information; and

packaging the verified member information, the medically relevant data, and the one or more trends in the member care file.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein generating the member care file further comprises:

identifying relatability factors in the member information; and

packaging the relatability factors in the member care file.

12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein,

receiving the member information from the one or more sources includes receiving advisories from news sources, and

generating the member care file further includes packaging the advisories in the member care file.

13. A server for presenting health data to a responding emergency medical system (EMS) device, the server including a processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium containing instructions stored thereon, such that when the instructions are executed by the processor, the server performs the method comprising:

registering a member profile based on receiving, from a member device, information indicating an option for sharing member information;

registering an EMS profile using the EMS device, wherein the EMS profile includes one or more authorizations for receiving the member information associated with the member;

receiving, from the EMS device, trigger information including a request for the member information;

receiving medical information associated with the member from one or more sources, wherein the medical information comprises non-standardized data;

converting the non-standardized data into standardized data, wherein the standardized data comprises one or more trends associated with treatments or conditions associated with the member, wherein converting the non-standardized data into the standardized data comprises:

identifying entities associated with one or more medically significant conditions based on utilizing machine learning to scan through the non-standardized data;

performing diagnoses based on the identified entities to determine the one or more medically significant conditions associated with the member; and

determining the one or more trends based on the identified entities, the one or more medically significant conditions, and a personal health record associated with the member;

based on the request for the member information being valid, generating, using the standardized data, a member care file comprising updated member information, wherein the updated member information includes the one or more trends; and

providing the member care file to the EMS device in real time so that a user of the EMS device has immediate access to the member care file.

14. The server according to claim 13 , wherein the EMS profile includes at least one first responders profile, wherein the first responders profile includes an organization name, a staff name, a staff role, and/or an organization location.

15. The server according to claim 14 , further performing the method comprising:

authenticating the EMS device by associating the at least one first responders profile with the EMS device.

16. The server according to claim 13 , wherein the non-standardized data comprises non-standardized medical claims and medical records, and wherein the member information further includes at least one of medical history, medical insurance, work address, home address, provider preferences, medication, and vital signs.
