Yes, this is called proxy access. Proxy access allows another person the patient chooses to have access to the portal account. For minors, the parent or legal guardian can set up the account. For adults, the patient must authorize this by completing a form. The Physicians East Proxy Access Request Form must be completed at one of our Physicians East locations. This form cannot be completed online. Supporting documentation will need to be presented, example healthcare power or attorney or guardianship appointment, if someone other than the adult patient is completing the form.
Minors under the age of 10: Chart summaries, treatment notes, current medications, diagnoses, reminders, test results and communicate with care team.
Minors 10-17: Due to state confidentiality laws, information will be limited to allergies, immunizations, schedule appointments and communicate with care team.
Once the minor turns 18, the portal account is no longer available. The patient is then considered an adult and will need to set up the portal access.
