Overview
The free M Health Fairview app makes it easy for you to manage your child’s appointments, handle bills, get your child’s lab results, research pediatric providers, find locations, access MyChart, and more – all from your phone, wherever you are.
We designed the app after getting feedback from hundreds of Minnesotans, including our patients and their families. With their input, we created an easy-to-use, one-stop shop to help families find care and access personal medical information on a customized platform.
Here are a few of the app’s features:
- Find and learn about providers. Doctor profiles and a locator map help you find the provider, hospital, or clinic that is the best fit for your child and your family.
- Schedule an in-person or virtual appointment for your child. You can also list your child’s symptoms, to help you find the care your child needs.
- Access MyChart features. Check your child’s test results and find patient instructions, progress notes, and information about your child’s diagnosis and medications.
- Check the status of bills and schedule payments.
- Find the nearest urgent care location and let them know you’re coming.

FAQ's
When you have “proxy access” to MyChart, you’re able to view another person’s MyChart information and take actions in their account (like view lab test results, read provider notes, and make appointments).
Parents or legal guardians are given full proxy access to MyChart records for children age 0-11. But under Minnesota law, minors ages 12 and older have the right to control the release of information related to pregnancy, STD, physical or sexual abuse, and substance abuse diagnosis or treatment.
If your child agrees to grant you proxy access to your child’s medical record, you can continue to view your child’s full medical records. Otherwise, you will only receive partial access. Here is how the process works:
- Before your child turns 12, talk with your child’s primary care provider about getting proxy access to your child’s MyChart account.
- The process of granting proxy access has to be done as part of an in-person visit.
- Your child’s doctor will talk with your child while you’re out of the room about what proxy access means and whether your child wants to grant you full or partial proxy access.
- If your child agrees to grant full access, your child and your provider will sign a consent form. Then, you are granted full proxy access to your child’s medical record.
- If your child does not agree, you will receive only partial proxy access.
- If you don’t complete this process before your child turns 12, it’s OK. You can still follow the process above to get proxy access. Be aware, however, that until the consent form is signed, you will not have full access to your child’s medical record.
