Why? What benefit could I possibly have to keep my identity a secret in a hospital emergency? They need access to my NHS records so they know my medical history, blood type, current medications, etc.
They’d treat me regardless, but it would be very weird and suspicious if I didn’t identify myself. They might even call the police because of it, because who does that?

Americans.
Yes this is absolutely an American thing, if you can avoid it at the least don’t take the ambulance unless you want a $5000 bill
Take just a moment to appreciate how shite the US healthcare system is that this post is sound medical advice.
Help. The insurance company is inside the house.
You let your doctors know your blood type? What if they use that to find out who you are and bill you
