The Eastern PA Hemophilia Foundation provides MedicAlert Memberships and IDs for patients with hemophilia, vWD and other clotting factor deficiencies. To qualify, you must either live in Pennsylvania (Eastern PA's coverage area) or if you live outside the state, then you must be treated at one of the following six Hemophilia Treatment Centers:
