Before you call
- Try the Forgot Username or Forgot Password links first, just below the sign-in boxes.
- Have the patient's date of birth and the email on file ready. Most resets text or email a code.
- Codes not showing up on an iPhone? A message filter may be hiding them: where to look.
- Helping a parent? Many portals let a family member have their own access with the patient's permission. Ask the help line about proxy access instead of sharing the parent's password.
