The fix

Under the Anatomical Gift Act, removing yourself from the donor registry is a revocation. A revocation bars no one. Only a signed refusal does, and only if it is found in time.
We keep your signed refusal safe online and give you a medical ID with a QR code that links straight to it.
Revocation and refusal are two different legal tools. Only one of them actually stops anyone from donating your organs.
The two instruments
Revocation
What it does: nothing; doesn’t stop anyone
What the act says
A donor's revocation of an anatomical gift is not a refusal and does not bar another person from making an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part.
Anatomical gift act §8(b)
Who can still authorize
Your spouse, your adult kids, a parent, a sibling, a grandchild, a grandparent, a close friend who cared for you, or even a hospital administrator!
Where it lives
In the state’s donor registry. That registry only tracks people who said yes; it has no record of a refusal.
Refusal
What it does: stops everyone
What the act says
An individual's unrevoked refusal bars all other persons from making an anatomical gift of the individual's body or part.
Anatomical gift act §7(a) and §7(d)
Who can still authorize
No one. Not a family member deciding for you, not someone with power of attorney, not a hospital administrator. No one. Period.
Where it lives
On a card in your wallet, or engraved on something you wear. A clinician can scan the code and see it in seconds.
No one who loves you has to be standing there arguing for you. One thing settles it: your written refusal.
The fix
Your signed refusal, on a private webpage that opens in seconds, from a card in your wallet or something you wear.

Why this matters: Cheap medical tags like MyID, QRepublik, or old-school MedicAlert bracelets only let you type simple health fields into a website. But in a real medical crisis, a hospital can easily overlook typed text if they want to push their own protocols.
WearableDocs is different. It holds a crisp, secure scan of your actual signed legal documents so doctors can see your real signature instantly. Even better, it immediately alerts your family and loved ones the exact millisecond your card is scanned, ensuring your family knows what’s happening while it’s still happening. You get real legal protection, absolute privacy, and total peace of mind for the whole family.
This Anatomical Gift Act reads almost the same in every state, so your refusal is written to match the part every state has in common, not fifty different versions of the form. Just tell us what state you’re in, and we’ll show you what’s required before you sign. Your page will show which state you signed in. Remember: your signed document is what actually counts legally; we just store it and make sure it can be found.
The three things people usually ask next: each gets its own page instead of piling more onto this one.
Every time someone views your record, that view gets sealed: signed with a certificate you can check against wearabledocs.com, and time-stamped on the Bitcoin blockchain. This proves the record existed and hasn’t been changed by a certain date. It does not identify who read your page, and it is not a notarization.
