Patient portal access for parents and guardians

Ascension uses different portal access paths for hospital visits and doctor office visits.

Open the official portal and records page. Use the Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital patient portal and medical records page to access the hospital-visit portal and doctor office visit portal links.
Choose the correct portal type. Hospital-visit information and doctor office visit information may be in different portals. Pick the one that matches where your child received care.
Ask the care team for activation help. For hospital visit portal access, talk to the care team or doctor’s office so an activation link can be sent when eligible.
Use the portal for quick access, not full records replacement. Portal tools may show labs, messages, appointment tools, or visit information, but full medical record release still requires the records process.
Protect proxy access. Parent and guardian access may depend on the child’s age, legal authority, and privacy rules. Do not share login codes or passwords.
Portal tip: If your child saw a specialist in an office and also had a hospital visit, check both portal options before assuming information is missing.

Medical records and authorization requests

Use the HIM process when you need complete records, outside-provider records, legal copies, school documentation, insurance support, or specialist files.

Records department
Ascension St. Vincent HIM – Medical Records Department maintains electronic copies for hospital, surgery center, radiology, and therapy-related services.
Authorization needed
Medical-record requests must include a signed authorization by the patient or authorized representative.
Physician transfer
Ascension says a fee is not charged when records are sent to a physician as part of continuing care.
Indianapolis HIM phone
For Ascension St. Vincent Indianapolis questions, call 317-338-2216 Monday-Friday during daytime hours.
Minor privacy
For children and teens, access may depend on parent or guardian authority, state and federal privacy rules, and the type of record requested.
Records safety: Keep copies of your signed authorization, date submitted, fax or upload confirmation, and the exact record dates requested.

Billing, insurance, payment portals, and financial assistance

Ascension bills can be hospital bills or doctor’s office bills. Use the right portal and phone number.

Billing need What to do Important note
Hospital bill Use the VisitPay hospital bill route from Ascension or call 800-572-1619. Use this when the bill is from a hospital visit, ER visit, inpatient stay, procedure, or hospital-based service.
Doctor office bill Use the Athena doctor’s office bill route or call 844-994-0409. Use this when the bill is from a clinic or doctor office visit.
Financial assistance Review Ascension’s financial assistance information and call 1-800-582-8258 for help. Assistance may depend on application, household information, coverage, and policy criteria.
Estimate for hospital services Use the billing and financial assistance page’s estimate route. Estimates are not always final bills; insurance, deductibles, co-insurance, and provider billing can affect final cost.
Insurance check Call your insurance plan and ask if the hospital, doctor, specialist, and facility service are in network. Hospital and physician services can bill separately, so verify both facility and provider network status.
Billing safety checklist: Before paying, match the account number, date of service, patient name, statement type, insurance explanation of benefits, and official Ascension payment page.
