Yes, you can access your medical record by logging into the Everyday Well patient portal. There are limitations to accessing a minor patient’s medical record within the Everyday Well patient portal.
At Memorial Hermann Health System, we are dedicated to protecting the information of our patients.
The proxy process was designed to comply with state and federal privacy laws. The Everyday Well portal has certain technological limitations which impact proxy access to medical records for patients ages 13-17. Therefore, proxy access through Everyday Well is not available to parents for this age range. We are actively working to improve this process and to provide portal access. Parents may instead contact the Memorial Hermann Release of Information Department directly at at (713) 867-4335 or online at Request Medical Records to request medical records for their children.
