There's a third way via iOS's Shortcuts app – see this screenshot:

...I tried playing around with those actions and, even though I'm familiar with Shortcuts, found them overly complicated.

HM: Shortcuts app is worth becoming familiar with, but doesn't appear to offer a a way to update Medical details – only log data types, e.g. Blood Glucose, Blood Pressure, etc. The AirDrop approach would allow you to copy & paste the text from Mac into Medical details in iPhone's Health app.

You might want to submit feedback to Apple letting them know what you'd like to see:

Best of luck.

HM ~ With AirDrop, you can wirelessly send documents, to a nearby Mac, iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
