Havre, Montana – Northern Montana Health Care (NMHC) has implemented several new changes to their Patient Portal.
One of the latest changes will affect parents of youth aged 13-17. In support of the 2021 MT Code, NMHC will not provide electronic access to health care information for minors aged 13 – 17. Electronic access via the Patient Portal will now end automatically on a patient’s 13th birthday.
Additionally, patients will now be automatically invited to join the portal after giving registration staff their personal email information. This will make the initial enrollment process immediate and ready for the patient to complete the enrollment after their visit.
The last addition to the capabilities of NMHC’s Patient Portal is Shared Access. This allows portal users to invite other people to have access to their Patient Portal. This will be very helpful in cases of elderly patients, or those needing family assistance.
If patients have questions about these updates or would like more information on the Patient Portal, they may call NMHC at 406-262-1450.
