Patient Gateway is ideal for routine communications and notifies your regular email account when a new message arrives. It is free to registered patients, however, not for emergency or time urgent matters.
Take advantage of Patient Gateway:
- Password protected, secure access to your medical information
- All day, every day availability -- no waiting on hold, ever
- Speedy connectivity and ease of use (Patient Gateway now runs on PC and Macintosh computers using Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari browsers.)
- Prefilled forms that streamline your requests for service
- Our clinician-approved HealthWise Knowledgebase, providing the latest health information in clear, everyday language.
Things you should know about using Patient Gateway messaging:
- Your messages will be responded to during regular office hours. All requests are processed within 2 business days
- Use email for routine problems or questions
- Do not use email if you are having a medical emergency
- Do not use email if you need a reply in a very short amount of time
- Just like a phone call, your email message will be reviewed by office staff first and then sent to a doctor or nurse
- Your doctor or nurse may put copies of your email messages in your medical record
- For security and privacy reasons, you will be mailed a password, so sign up now so you will be ready to use it
- Once enrolled some email systems may block notification messages sent from patientgateway@partners.org. To ensure that your email service provider recognizes and accepts messages from Patient Gateway, enter our originating email address: patientgateway@partners.org into your email address book.
