Uploading documents to your record

Send your clinic insurance cards, IDs, prior X-rays, lab results.

Overview

Your portal lets you upload PDFs, photos, and X-rays directly to your patient record. Useful when your clinic asks for a scanned ID, insurance card, or X-ray from another provider.

Prerequisites

  • Signed-in portal account
  • The file to upload (under 25 MB each)

Steps

Open Documents. Side menu → Documents.

See existing documents. Files your clinic has uploaded for you (X-rays, treatment plans) and any you've sent.

Click "+ Upload".

Pick the file. Browse from device, or take a photo (mobile).

Categorise the file. ID, Insurance Card, External X-ray, Lab Result, Other.

Add a description. "ID copy", "BCBS insurance card 2026", "X-ray from Dr. Smith".

Click "Upload". Progress shows; on completion, file appears in your documents list.

Verify your clinic received it. They'll see it on your record. You can message them to confirm.

Expected outcome

  • The file is in your patient record at the clinic
