Patient Portal

What is a Patient Portal?

• An online application that allows patients to log in securely and view information in their charts.
• The Portal can be accessed all hours of the day and night.
• CCFHS grants patients access (with a secure username and password) to their chart information as well as other great features.
• Timely electronic access to your health information and electronic copies of your health record.
• Can reply to a secure message from your provider or your provider’s nurse instead of leaving a phone message.
• Data is exchanged in a HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) compliant and secure fashion.
• Fill out paper work in the luxury of your own home.

How do I get started?

Just provide the front office staff an e-mail address that belongs to you and you only. You will receive a temporary password from them. Your temporary password will only be used the first time you log in to your portal account. You will then be prompted to create a new password and to set up security questions. Once you create your new password and security questions you will have access to your portal account.
