A project team will be at 100 Mile House District General Hospital on Oct. 25-27 from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. to offer patients access to their personal health information online via the new MyHealthPortal tool.
MyHealthPortal provides patients with 24-hour access to their health information via their personal phone, tablet or computer through a secure portal from the Interior Health website.
Features include the ability to view Interior Health lab results, diagnostic imaging (such as X-ray, CT and ultrasound) reports, certain upcoming appointments, recent hospital visit history, and the opportunity to update address and phone number information.
To sign up, patients must present to the project team in person with legal photo identification and their Care Card or B.C. Services Card in order to verify their identity. They will be given a login username and password that they will be able to use on their own device – home computer, tablet or Smartphone.
Then they simply go to the MyHealthPortal page on Interior Health’s web site at www.interiorhealth.ca/MyHealthPortal to login.
For those unable to attend in person, remote enrolment will also be available in 100 Mile House after Oct. 25.
To enrol remotely, patients ask to have their email address added to their patient record at the registration desk during their next visit to the hospital and then submit an enrolment request at www.interiorhealth.ca/MyHealthPortal.
MyHealthPortal support will contact them by phone to verify their identity and complete enrolment.
