Can I view a family member’s health record in My Knoxville Portal?
Parents can view their child’s medical record in My Knoxville Portal up to age 13. After age 13, the proxy access will need to be reauthorized by the child. Individuals that have Legal Guardianship or Durable Power of Attorney for a family member can request proxy access. You will need to complete an authorization form for each proxy access request. Proof of legal guardianship and durable power of attorney is required for authorization.

Proxy access cannot be granted through the self-enrollment process.


I don’t have any information in My Knoxville Portal account. Why?

You will only have medical information in your portal account if you have been seen at the hospital since October 14, 2013 or in the clinic since December 2, 2013. Previous medical information is “pre-loaded” into your health record prior to your visit, but that information is not loaded into your portal. Only information recorded in our new electronic health record will be included in My Knoxville Portal. Additionally, to protect your privacy, not all medical information from your health record is released to the patient portal.


Why are my results listed in metric values?

It is common practice in health care to utilize the metric system. Unfortunately, we are unable to convert this data for viewing in My Knoxville Portal. If you would like to convert the values, please utilize one of the many conversion tools online.
