Sending login details to the patient​

If you provide the patient's email and/or phone number during registration, a login invitation will be sent automatically. This invitation will include a Confirm Legit.Health account button. When the patient clicks this button, they will be prompted to create a password.

After the patient sets their password, they can access the application using their email and password via the following link: https://app.legit.health/login.

Patient access and report visibility​

The information accessible to the patient will depend on the data entered by the practitioner and the configuration settings of the medical centre.
