Almost all the information you can see in your My CS-Link account is viewable by your proxy.

Yes. If you have proxy access for a family member, you can send messages to the family member's doctors. When you use the message feature, you should see the family member's name in parentheses and see their doctors who can be messaged on My CS-Link.

No. To ensure the security of your health information you should not share your My CS-Link account with anyone else.

You can revoke proxy access at any time.

Teens can see important health information (such as history, medications and allergies), schedule appointments, send messages to their doctors and more.

Teens can decide to let a parent or legal guardian see parts of their medical record in My CS-Link. This is called “proxy” access.

With proxy access, a parent or legal guardian can see and help manage a teen’s appointments, send messages to a teen’s doctor or nurse and review other parts of a teen’s medical record, including allergies and immunizations. However, a parent or legal guardian cannot see parts of a teen’s medical record that may be protected by California minor consent and confidentiality laws, including visit notes and test results that may include sensitive or very personal information.

To request teen access to My CS-Link, call your Huntington Health pediatric provider, or call the Huntington Health Information Department (Medical Records) at 626-397-5054. To request proxy access to your My CS-Link account for your parent or legal guardian, please complete the form below and take it to your next doctor visit.
