Communicating with PHC Through the Patient Portal
The PHC Patient Web Portal allows you to securely access your patient information and communicate directly with PHC.
With the Web Portal, you can:
- Access your health record
- Send messages to your care team
- Request prescription refills
- Review your statements
- Request appointments
- View your appointment history and visit summaries
- Review your medication lists and labs
Please note for patients ages 14-17: The portal will expire in order to protect patient privacy. Patients are able to complete all the same tasks by calling in and speaking to our front desk, medical records or billing department.
We are unable to accept payments via the Healow app. To pay your bill, please visit the Pay My Bill page by clicking the link below.
Healow Mobile App
The Healow mobile app allows you to do everything you can do in the Patient Portal but from your mobile device.
After downloading the Healow app for iOS or Android, you will be prompted to enter PHC’s Practice Code: CGFGAA.

If your child is ages 0-13, definitely! We can set up a Proxy Account for the parent/guardian to have full access.
If your child is ages 14-17, no. In order to be in compliance with state of Montana law concerning certain medical/mental health records of minor patients, patient portal proxy access will not be provided to adolescents between the ages of 14 – 17.
In order to support compliance with these laws, proxy access is not available after age 14 until the patient reaches 18 years of age and is able to authorize access. The adolescent patient may directly enroll in the patient portal.
When a child reaches age 18, they are considered an adult and can give access to another adult by completing the proxy access process.
Refer to the table below for a visual explanation.
- Proxy access allows for a parent, guardian or other designated individual, like a caretaker or durable power of attorney, to connect to the patient’s health information.
- Important Note: Once you have obtained proxy access to another patient’s portal information, you may ask questions regarding their health using secure messaging. The questions you ask become part of the patient’s medical record, so it is important you ask only questions about their health while viewing their information through proxy. This helps make sure your questions are sent to the correct health care provider.
