Why is Dothan Pediatric Subspecialty Clinic not listed under Healthcare Organizations?
Accounts for our patients must be created through an email invitation, and accounts created from this link are automatically connected to Dothan Pediatric Healthcare Network. If you are being prompted to connect to an organization, please contact our office at 334.793.1881, ext. 2699 to request an email invitation to create an account.
Why can I not see my child’s information?
There are two reasons why this may occur:
- Be sure to choose your child’s name from the account list each time you log in. If there is not a drop-down list for accounts, please contact our office at 334.793.1881, ext. 2699 to request an email invitation to create an account that will link to our office and your child’s health records.
- An account was created from the FollowMyHealth website and not from the email invitation. Please contact our office at 334.793.1881, ext. 2699 to request an invitation.
How do I link my children’s accounts?
If you have an account for one child, you will need an email invite to add another child. Once you receive the email invite, simply choose the “Sign in and add this connection” option when creating an account for your other child. If you have created separate accounts for your children, we can delete those accounts and send a new invitation that includes all children. You will need to create a new portal account, but it will include all of your children under the age of 18. Be sure to include the names and dates of birth for all children under 18, your name and relationship to the children, and your email address.
Why am I not receiving email notifications about updates to my child’s portal account? How do I update my email address to receive FMH updates?
You will receive an email notification when new information is available in your child’s portal account as long as there is a valid email address in notifications. Preferences and notifications can only be updated using a PC. You can enable Push Notifications on mobile devices that will display the number of updates in your portal account on the FollowMyHealth icon.
Can I print my child’s medical records from the portal?
- On a PC, print your child’s health record by choosing the Chart tab under My Health.
- On an iOS device, choose My Health and then click the Export icon.
- On an Android device, choose My Health from the Menu, and then choose Documents. Tap the Print icon on the top right and check the box beside any information you would like to print.
- Choose Print to see a list of available printers.
How can I find my username or reset my password?
You will receive an email with your username from FollowMyHealth when you create your child’s portal account. If you chose the FMH login method, you can use the Forgot Password link to have a password reset link sent to the email address used to create the account. If you used Google, Yahoo, Facebook, or Outlook to create your login, you will need to request a password reset from that company.
Our office cannot see or retrieve usernames or passwords. If you cannot login and cannot remember your username or password, please contact our office at 334.793.1881, ext. 2699 and request that your current portal account be deleted, and a new email invitation be sent. When you create a new account, please use the FMH login method and make a note of your username and password for future reference.
Can a grandparent or step-parent request a portal account?
Only legal guardians may request portal accounts. If someone other than a biological parent requests a portal account, they must provide documentation proving legal guardianship before an invitation will be sent.
