Brief Overview
The Patient Portal Access is a new feature in Clinic to Cloud to manage access to the Patient Portal. It is located within the patient's demographics screen and can be updated by entering edit mode of the patient demographics.

- The email can be for the patient or another nominated person to access the Patient Portal.
