Continue Managing Your Health Care With the CommonSpirit Patient Portal and Mobile App

Virginia Mason Franciscan Health (VMFH), including Virginia Mason Medical Center and Virginia Mason clinics, is a member of CommonSpirit Health, a national health system caring for patients and supporting healthier communities across the country. 

Together we have launched the CommonSpirit Patient Portal and Mobile App, where you can access your health information and manage your care. The CommonSpirit Patient Portal replaces MyVirginiaMason. 

This change is the first step toward a unified patient portal for all VMFH patients.

While the portal you use to access your health information online has changed, your care has not. You will continue to receive care from the same trusted providers.

Learn how to set up and link MyChart accounts to manage your care.

    You will need a VMFH MyChart account for the following locations:

    • St. Anne Hospital Asthma, Allergy and Immunology at Virginia Mason Medical Center – Seattle (Lindeman Pavilion, Suite 101) formerly Asthma, Allergy and Immunology at Virginia Mason
    • St. Anne Hospital Hematology and Oncology at Virginia Mason Medical Center – Seattle (Buck Pavilion, Suite 200) formerly Hematology and Oncology at Virginia Mason

  • A healthcare proxy (also called a healthcare agent or Power of Attorney for Healthcare) is the person you choose to make healthcare decisions for adults and minors. Your proxy can talk with your doctors, consult your medical records, and make decisions about tests, procedures, and other treatment.

    Proxy access to manage healthcare for minor and adolescent patients online through a patient portal involves specific consent requirements, especially for adolescents (ages 13-17), due to Washington State law.

    For questions about proxy access, please contact your care team.

    Child Proxy Access: Ages 0-12

    •  To request proxy access for your child, please complete this form and return it to your care team in person. Child Proxy Request Form (ages 0-12).

    • Children under the age of 13 are not able to have their own MyChart account, so a parent or legal guardian must create their own CommonSpirit Patient Portal account to set up proxy access.  

      • Once proxy access is granted, the child’s health information will appear in the parent/legal guardians CommonSpirit Patient Portal account. 

    • If you previously had proxy access for a minor, or wish to establish new proxy access, you will need to complete the necessary paperwork at your next visit.

    Adolescent Proxy Access:  Ages 13-17

    • In Washington State, adolescent patients (ages 13-17) must consent to allow a parent or guardian to have proxy access to their patient portal. If the adolescent does not consent, proxy access cannot be granted. Patients in this age group can have their own MyChart account with access to some, but not all, of their healthcare information.

    • To obtain or maintain proxy access for an adolescent, both the parent/guardian and the adolescent must sign consent forms. These forms ensure compliance with patient confidentiality and state regulations.

    •  To request proxy access for your adolescent, please complete this form and return it to your care team in-person. Adolescent Proxy Request Form (ages 13-17)

    • An adolescent patient retains the right to revoke proxy access at any time.

    • For adolescent patients (13-17), setting up a portal account requires a unique email address and phone number for the adolescent. The parent/guardian's email or phone number cannot be used for the adolescent's primary account. They will need a unique activation message to create their own CommonSpirit Patient Portal account, and a front desk team member can send the activation message to them.

      •  If granted proxy, their full health information will appear in their parent/legal guardians account.

    • If you previously had proxy access for an adolescent minor, or wish to establish new proxy access, you will need to complete the necessary paperwork.

    Adult Proxy Access: Ages 18 and older

    • For adult patients, they can grant proxy access to another adult directly from within their own CommonSpirit Patient Portal account account.
        

    • To request a prescription refill, please call your retail pharmacy directly. 
    • Your pharmacy will then process your request and work with your provider if additional authorization is needed.

    We are ready to assist you.

  • We understand that some patients have experienced challenges accessing their new CommonSpirit Patient Portal and App patient portal. In June 2026, we implemented a system update Patient Portal/App login process to address access issues experienced by some patients. This update requires all CommonSpirit Patient Portal users to reset their password and Mobile App users to perform an App update and a  password reset.

    To ensure you continue to have access to the CommonSpirit Patient Portal, you will need to reset your password and update your mobile app. For step-by-step instructions on how to reset your password and update the app, visit vmfh.org/portal-updates.
