Patient Portal

No, the Patient Portal is not to be used for emergency-related healthcare issues. Please call your provider’s office directly for any questions you would need answered within 3 business days or sooner. If you are experiencing a healthcare emergency, call 911, or visit the nearest emergency room.

Designated staff members who support your provider will receive your messages and route them to your provider, nurse, or front desk as necessary. If your provider is out of the office, your request may be handled by the provider on-call or held until he/she returns to the office.

Yes, messages sent from the Patient Portal and the responses to those messages become part of your medical record.

Your information is extremely secure. The information on the Patient Portal is merely a snapshot of your medical record, not the actual record.

I’m under 18 years old – what does this mean for me?

When minors visit a provider at CHC, there are certain services they may consent to without parental involvement (see “What types of services may a minor consent to?” above). CHC will take steps to ensure the confidentiality of those visits by turning off portal access for all patients ages 13 through 17 and will not share your healthcare information with anyone else unless you give permission.

What does this mean for me as a parent?

CHC encourages parents and guardians to be involved in their child’s health care to the extent possible and respects their authority to make decisions.

These laws also require healthcare providers to treat visits confidentially. Therefore, if your child consents to one of the above services on their own, CHC will not be able to share information with you regarding those visits without written authorization from the child

CHC will automatically deactivate portal access for parents and guardians of minors between the ages of 13 through 17 years old. Parents may contact CHC for billing information or medical/dental records for their minor child and continue to have information about their healthcare.

Turning off access to portal accounts applies to all patients ages 13 through 17 and does not mean that your child has received healthcare services without your knowledge.
