My Patient Chart Approval
You must have both PCM and Intellect to use this feature.
This option allows the provider’s office to approve patient requests to access their electronic health information via MyPrimeChart app. The patient must download MyPrimeChart from the App Store or Google Play and register for an account before sending a request to the clinic/provider. NOTE: My Patient Chart approval does NOT affect patient access to electronic health information using the Patient Portal website.
• For details on setting up and using Patient Portal, see PCM online documentation for Optional Modules; Chapter: Patient Portal; Document: Patient Portal Overview.
• For details on using MyPrimeChart, see PCM online documentation for Optional Modules; Chapter: Patient Portal; Document: MyPrimeChart.
