Invite patients to the patient portal

Halaxy's patient portal enables patients to track their health, manage appointments, view shared clinical records, and pay for invoices.

Note

You can only apply bulk updates to patients that you have access to. You cannot apply updates to patients whose names are anonymised.

Troubleshooting

If you are unable to send an invite, check that the recipient email address is not linked to a practitioner.

  5. Click Invite.

You have sent an invitation to the patient to join Halaxy. When they accept, you receive a notification on Halaxy.

The invitation contains instructions for the patient to accept the invite and set up their account.

Note

If you cannot find the invite link, you need to enable patient portal invitations in Settings > General > Patient Access.
