Access to Your Child's (Ages 0-11) Health Information

Access to a minor’s account will include all MyChart features until the child reaches the age of 12, at which time family access will be limited in adherence with California State's adolescent/teen privacy laws.

Access To Your Teen’s (Ages 12-17) Health Information

We take patient privacy laws very seriously, and the State of California limits what types of health information we can share with parents about their teen. For that reason, we provide a limited view to parents of teens between the ages of 12 and 17.  Parents of children between the ages of 12-17 will have the ability to:

  • Create new messages
  • View messages
  • Schedule appointments
  • Request appointments

For details about what information you can access for your child who is 12 years or older, please contact our Health Information Management team at (925) 947-5373.
