Connect a Patient - Generate a Connection Key

In order for a patient to use the MyMedicalLocker feature, they must have an account created and their chart needs to be connected to that account.   One way to do this is to generate a connection key and send that key to the patient.  The patient will use this key to create an account and connect their account to their chart.

Steps to Create and Connect

1. Click the Connect Patient button
   
2. Verify the name and date of birth for the patient you are connecting. It is best to verify verbally with the patient so that you do not accidently connect the wrong patient. Once done, click I verify that I am on the correct patient. Then, OK.
   
   
3. Enter who requested this token (for example if a mom is requesting the tokens on behalf of the son, enter the Mom's name) into the Requested By field.
   
   
4. Under the Generate Connection Key - No Practice/Patient Interaction Required section, choose either the Email Address, Phone number, or Letter option.  
   
   
5. Enter the Email Address or Phone Number for the patient.  If you would like to print and mail the patient the connection key, you can skip this step.
   
   
6. Click to send or print the connection key.
   
   
7. You will receive a confirmation that the key has been sent. The patient will receive a text or an email with a link to create an account.
   

Patient steps after receiving a connection key

1. The patient should receive an email or text message that contains the following link along with their connection key. Follow the link:  https://www.mymedicallocker.com/mml/setup.html?p=createAccount 
   
2. The patient will be requested to enter either an e-mail address or phone number.   Once done, click Create Account. This will be their User ID.  The system will also check to see if they already have an account created with that User ID.
   
3. An email or text will be sent to the address entered.  This verifies that a valid phone or email is on file so that the patient can receive important updates from your practice.
   
   
4. The user should click the link in the email. They will then be asked if they have a connection key from the practice.  Click Yes.
   
5. Enter the key provided and click Next.
   
6. Patient will verify their contact details and click Connect.  This must match what is on file at the practice.
   
7. Patient will create a  password and click Finish.
