Every patient has Home and My Plan. The other areas appear only when your clinic has their module turned on. The tabs show in this order: Home, Care, My Plan, Shop, Resources.
Steps
- Open Settings, then Patient Portal → Patient portal. It opens on Overview & modules.
- Under Enabled modules, tick the areas you want patients to have: My Health, Care, Learn, Store, Billing and Assistant.
- Select Save modules.
- Select Preview in the side list to check readiness before patients use it.
What patients see
- Home: what's next for them.
- Care (Care on): Messages with your care team, Visits with a Join your visit button for video visits and Reschedule or cancel under your clinic's rules, and Documents.
- My Plan: This week, Treatment, and Progress when My Health is on.
- Shop (Store on): Products and My orders, with order status and tracking.
- Resources (Learn on): Courses, Tools and Guides.
- The Account menu: Billing (when Billing is on, or the patient has a membership), Forms, Profile, Notifications, Refer a friend (while your clinic runs a referral offer), Help & contact and Sign out.
Good to know
- In Profile, patients change their own email or phone, confirmed with a code sent by email. They also keep their details and health history up to date; choose which sections they can change under Client profile. Your team reviews every change.
- If your clinic has the stage-aware portal turned on, What each stage sees can hide parts of the menu for a stage. A section that holds the person's own records always shows.
- If Portal booking is on, patients can request a visit and your clinic confirms the time.
