The Patient Portal is a web-based system that serves as a secure, encrypted communication link between you and Arthritis Specialists, Ltd. When you log in to the Portal with your private user name and password, you can see information that is pulled from your electronic medical record and displayed on the web page. The Patient Portal is an optional service, and we reserve the right to suspend or terminate it at any time; we will alert you to any changes as promptly as possible.
This form is intended to give you the facts and risks surrounding the use of the web portal. By signing this
document, you confirm that you have read, understand, and agree to comply with our procedures and guidelines for using the Patient Portal. You also agree not to hold Arthritis Specialists, Ltd or any of their staff liable for network infractions beyond their control.
The Patient Portal has a secure tunnel connection with our office that uses encryption to keep unauthorized persons from being able to access and read your health information or your communications with us. To help insure that the tunnel remains secure, we need to have your current (private) email address and be informed if it ever changes. Keep your Portal User ID and password secure so only you can gain access to patient information. If you think someone has learned your password, immediately go to the portal site and change it.
