Give a patient access to the patient portal

Make a one-time code a patient types with their date of birth to read their records on the RizCare app, or on the web where your practice has a patient portal address.

A patient reads their visits, bills and the notes your clinicians share on the patient portal. They join with a code you make on their chart and hand them, usually with the visit summary.

Before you start

The patient portal must be on for your practice, and the patient needs a date of birth on their record. Without one, the chart says so in place of the code.

The Patient portal tab for Aisha Bello: Give access with a code says the patient has no date of birth recorded, and to record it first.

What to expect

The code works once, for a month. The patient chooses First time here?, types the code and their date of birth, and then the sign-in code RizCare sends them. Once they have joined, they are listed under Who reads these records online.

Making a new code for the same person replaces one still waiting to be used.
