The newest and best medical implants and prostheses feature RFID tags or other technology to allow your doctor to monitor your health and the performance of the device. Computer-controlled pacemakers, connected by RFID or Wi-Fi, can be adjusted without surgery. Prostheses embedded with an RFID tag can tell a doctor or manufacturer all they need to know about the patient in case a replacement or adjustment is needed. Subdermal chips give caregivers access to the medical history of an unconscious or uncommunicative patient. Of course, anyone else with an interrogator can gain access to your medical history and prescriptions.
