Children typically have frequent well-child visits in the first few years, then once a year starting at age 3. These visits include vaccinations, as well as routine screenings and measurements. See the complete checkup and vaccine schedule from birth to age 18.
A few days before your child’s appointment, you’ll receive an email and text reminder about their visit. These messages will include a link to MyAtriumHealth, where you can check in online before your appointment. eCheck-In includes quick questionnaires about your child’s health history and allergies, as well as confirming insurance information is correct.

When your teen turns 13, they can request their own MyAtriumHealth account and parental access automatically becomes limited. This change is required by state law to protect your teen’s privacy and help them feel comfortable seeking care for sensitive issues.
Follow these steps when your child turns 13:
- Step 1: After turning 13, your teen requests their own account during an in-person visit, with verbal consent from a parent or legal guardian.
- Step 2: Your teen receives an activation email or text to create their account. (Make sure they have their own email address or phone number.)
- Step 3: Once your teen’s account is set up, you can request limited parental access by phone, at the office or in MyAtriumHealth. This lets you help your teen schedule appointments, manage billing, send messages to their doctor, view allergies and immunizations, and request a copy of their medical records. You won’t be able to see appointment history, upcoming appointments or visit notes.
