It is important for you to know that these alerts will not contain any specific information from your MyChart account, but they will inform you that you have updated information in MyChart to review such as a new message from your doctor’s office, an appointment reminder or new test results.
Can We See The Health Records of Our Family?
You are able to see the health record of your family and this is called proxy access. As explained on the MyChart Dupage Medical Group web flyer, for a child under 12, it permits a parent or legal guardian to log into their personal MyChart account, and then see information about their child. It is also explained that per State and Federal guidelines, if the child is 12, the parent will still be able to access appointments. Besides, they are also able to send messages. However, they will have limited access to the medical record information of the child.
After the child turns 18, the parent can have access to the patient’s medical record information with the authorization from the patient. You are also able to request access to another adult’s health record. It can be done if you help manage that adult’s medical care.
