Since the launch of the iPhone 12 at the end of last year, it has said that MegaSafe accessories may cause interference with some medical devices, such as a pacemaker, because of electromagnetic interference causing some devices not to function properly when around some equipment.

Apple has now added a new support document stating this fact.  It reads in part:

Medical devices such as implanted pacemakers and defibrillators might contain sensors that respond to magnets and radios when in close contact. To avoid any potential interactions with these devices, keep your iPhone and MagSafe accessories a safe distance away from your device (more than 6 inches / 15 cm apart or more than 12 inches / 30 cm apart if wirelessly charging). But consult with your physician and your device manufacturer for specific guidelines.
