To request access to the MyChart record of a minor patient whose medical care you help manage, please complete this form. A “Proxy” may be a patient’s parent, legal guardian or Power of Attorney. The Proxy will be able to access portions of the health record, including the following items, which may be expanded or changed from time to time by Lurie Children’s: Immunizations, Problem List, Medications, Allergies, History, and messages with the patient’s providers.

  • MyChart should not be used in an emergency. Lurie Children’s will make its best effort to provide a timely response to electronic inquiries in MyChart, in accordance with the MyChart Terms and Conditions available in the MyChart portal. For emergencies, call 911.
  • MyChart is intended as a secure online portal for health information. MyChart contains a portion of patient’s health record and does not contain all the information that may be available with a complete copy, available from the Health Information Department. 
  • This form does not authorize release of patient’s medical records to Proxy by any other methods or form.
  • I understand that once I share my health information with others, it can be re-disclosed by them and the information may not be covered by federal privacy protections.
  • Passwords must be kept confidential. Tell Lurie Children’s MyChart HelpDesk at 833.706.4507 if a password has been lost or compromised.
  • Sensitive Health Information: with a MyChart Enhanced Proxy Access Account Proxy will have access to health information that is currently available and that may become available as a result of future medical care. Some of this health information may be sensitive or private. Proxy may have access to the  following types of information: information related to HIV/AIDS, behavioral or mental health, developmental disabilities, treatment for substance use disorder, genetic testing and counseling, artificial insemination, sexual assault/abuse, domestic abuse of an adult with a disability, child abuse and neglect, sexually transmitted illnesses, pregnancy, and birth control. Lurie Children’s can only provide a MyChart Enhanced Proxy Access Account with patient authorization. If patient does not provide this authorization, Proxy may receive a MyChart Standard Proxy Access Account with more limited access that avoids violation of privacy laws.
  • Activities and messages in MyChart may be tracked by computer audit and may become part of the health record.
  • MyChart e-mail alerts will be sent to the e-mail address entered in the patient’s record and on this form.
  • Access to MyChart is provided by Lurie Children’s as a convenience to its patients. Lurie Children’s has the right to deactivate access to MyChart at any time and for any reason.
