The Pediatric Associates of Richmond (PAR) Patient Portal provides online access to patient information, which may include
vaccine records, appointment history, medication refills, lab results, billing information and other clinical documents. By using
the PAR Patient Portal this information can be accessed at your convenience.
You are accessing the PAR Patient Portal of the child in which you have been granted Proxy access.
Please note the following age limitations for access to a minor’s PAR Patient Portal. These range limitations do not affect any
legal right you have to access your child’s records by other means.
– If your child is age 0-12, parent/legal guardian will be granted full access to the child’s PAR Patient Portal record.
– If your child is age 13-17, parent/legal guardian will be granted partial access (restricting lab results and office notes)
to the child’s PAR Patient Portal record.
– Once your child reaches 18 years of age, parent/legal guardian will not be granted any access to the PAR Patient
Portal patient record unless the patient provides consent to access.
Full access to another adult’s information will be granted upon request from the patient. If the individual has diminished
capacity, full access will be granted to the healthcare agent or legally authorized representative.
