By TRICARE Communications

Looking to access your health information? It’s never been easier, thanks to the MHS GENESIS Patient Portal. This secure, online tool allows you to manage your health care at military hospitals and clinics from the comfort of your home or on the go.

“Whether you’re checking test results, scheduling appointments, or communicating with your health care provider, you can access the portal and stay connected with your medical team,” said U.S. Public Health Service Lt. Cmdr. Minh Doan, patient portal solution owner at the Defense Health Agency.
