As a result of a change in New York State policy, participating providers can now securely access data through HEALTHeLINK for minor patients 10 – 17 years of age. Access to the data requires a parent or legal guardian signing an affirmative HEALTHeLINK consent form on behalf of the minor patient. Consent forms can now be collected on minors 10 – 17 years of age and, with that consent, their doctors can get access to their clinical data through HEALTHeLINK.
