Cabinet Peaks

offers new portal

Cabinet Peaks Medical Center has a way for you to access your medical records and become more involved in your care with the Patient Portal.

The Patient Portal is a free, secure, web-based way for patients to easily access their medical records. The portal can be found online at www.cabinetpeaks.org via a link on the left hand menu, and is intended to help patients be proactive about their health and medical care.

The portal helps individuals use protected technology in a way that is meaningful and understandable. On the portal, you can view and download your entire medical history, view upcoming appointments, receive laboratory results, view your current medications and allergies and view your detailed billing statements.

For more information on the Patient Portal, or to get help signing up, please call the Cabinet Peaks Medical Center Billing Office at 283-7320.
