Transición a la atención del adulto

At Children's Health℠ we understand that transitioning to adulthood is an exciting and challenging time and includes the transition to adult care, also known as health care transition. It is important to start planning and preparing for health care transition as early as possible. There are many aspects of transitioning to adult health care, and the information below will help guide your journey to adulthood.

• MyChart

  Technology offers tools to help you manage your transition journey. Children’s Health℠ encourages the use of MyChart, an online medical records system used by many major health care systems.

  Through the MyChart patient portal, you can access your medical record and history through the transition from Children’s Health to adult care.

  • A partir de los 14 años de edad, un paciente puede inscribirse para tener su propia cuenta MyChart.
  • A los 18 años de edad, finalizará el acceso de los padres a la cuenta MyChart del hijo adolescente.
    • If continued access to a MyChart account is needed, contact the HIM department and provide a copy of legal medical decision-making documents.
  • A los 18 años de edad, un paciente puede compartir su registro MyChart de Children's Health seleccionando la opción de brindar acceso a amigos y familiares.

  Obtener más información information about MyChart and directions on how to share access.

  Si tiene preguntas o necesita asistencia con MyChart, póngase en contacto con la Oficina de HIM (Gestión de la Información Médica)/expedientes médicos o llame al 214-456-2509
