New Patient Portal unveiled at CMH

Citizens Memorial Hospital is pleased to unveil their new Patient Portal, which will be available to all patients June 3, 2020.

This interactive web portal will empower patients and their families to take a more active role in their care by providing easy, secure access to their health information and online communication with CMH staff.

The Patient Portal gives patients instant access to their health information, including laboratory and radiology results, medications, allergies, demographic information, visit history, discharge/aftercare information and more. Patients can also access their billing statements and outstanding balances and submit electronic payments. In addition to handling their own care, parents and health care proxies with authorized consent will appreciate the ability to access the records of those individuals for whom they manage care.

The Patient Portal allows patients to schedule and track their appointments online. Patients can request appointments for specific timeframes, add comments and contact preferences, and receive an email confirmation once an appointment is scheduled. A central appointment page displays their list of scheduled and pending appointments. Here, they can review appointment details and if necessary, reschedule or cancel appointments. The Patient Portal also saves patients time by allowing them to pre-register for appointments online and submit updates to their demographic and contact information before their visits.

Patients can also use the Patient Portal to communicate with their physicians. Patients can submit questions through a secure messaging center and receive their physicians’ responses. They can also request prescription renewals online instead of calling the office. Email notifications alert them to any new activity on their portal such as test results, messages or appointments.

Anyone interested in enrolling in the Patient Portal should visit citizensmemorial.com/patientportal. CMH encourages all of their patients to enroll in the Patient Portal , as it presents a valuable opportunity for patients and their families to actively participate in their care, which contributes to better health.
