Accessing the Portal
When can I access the patient portal?
The patient portal is available at any time that is convenient for you.
Who can have a patient portal?
Any person age 18 and older with an active email address can have a patient portal. If you are the parent or legal guardian of a child under age 18, their account must be initiated by you. (See "What is proxy access?" below.)
Can my spouse and I share an email address?
No. To protect privacy, each patient has a separate HealtheView account and each patient must have a unique email address to access their own individual portal. However, you can grant proxy access to a spouse to allow them to view your health records.
What is proxy access?
Using the patient portal to view another patient's information is called proxy access. As a parent or guardian, you can use HealtheView to access the health records of your minor child. Patient privacy is extremely important to us, so we have developed a policy around parents' and guardians' access to their child's patient portal that follows state and federal laws. Adults can grant proxy access to their health records to a spouse, family member or friend.
How can I sign up for proxy access?
Patients who wish to grant proxy access to a spouse, family member, or friend can do so by visiting the Health Information Management (Medical Records) department at the hospital. You may only sign up for proxy access in person. Parents who wish to view their child’s health information in HealtheView must be a parent or permanent legal guardian of the patient. Proxy access for patients will be granted until the child turns 18 years old. When a patient turns 18, parent access will be turned off.
Can a legal guardian, patient advocate, adoptive parent, or non-custodial parent have access to a patient’s HealtheView account?
Yes, proxy access is given to court-appointed legal guardians. In order to have access granted, you must provide a copy of the court order that grants the legal guardianship. You may complete a Proxy Access Form at the patient’s next hospital or physician/nurse practitioner’s office visit.
How do I revoke proxy access that I had previously granted?
Proxy access can be revoked at any time. To revoke proxy access, contact Cerner Consumer Care at 877-621- 8014.
