Start with the correct action

What should a Laureate Medical Group patient do first?

ROUTINE OR ONGOING CARE Schedule with the correct provider

Use internal medicine for preventive care and general medical management. Use a specialty office when you already have a diagnosis, referral or established specialist.

Best for annual visits, chronic conditions, medication monitoring, new-patient consultations and planned follow-up.
URGENT BUT NOT EMERGENCY Call early for same-day availability

Laureate advises patients to call early when a same-day appointment is needed. Availability depends on the provider, location and condition.

Ask whether Laureate can see you, whether another Northside service is appropriate or whether emergency care is safer.
POSSIBLE EMERGENCY Call 911 immediately

Do not send a portal message or wait for the office to open when delay could threaten life, breathing, brain function or permanent use of a body part.

Examples include chest pain, severe breathing trouble, stroke signs, major trauma and unconsciousness.

Go directly to the patient task you need

The important official instructions are explained below. External portals remain mainly for the final live action.

Northside-affiliated Georgia practice

What Laureate Medical Group provides

Laureate Medical Group has provided outpatient medical care since 1962. Its current network combines internal medicine with several medical specialties and support services.

General adult care

Internal medicine, medical evaluations, preventive care and treatment of common or chronic conditions.

Specialty medicine

Endocrinology, neurology, rheumatology and sleep medicine.

Health support

Diabetes education, nutritional counseling, physical therapy and selected diagnostic testing.

Northside connection: Laureate is affiliated with Northside Hospital, but a Laureate office visit and a Northside hospital service may create different records, portals and bills.
Provider search workflow

How to find the right Laureate Medical Group doctor

Start with the medical need Choose internal medicine when you need a regular adult doctor or do not yet know which specialist is appropriate.
Select the correct specialty Choose endocrinology for hormone-related conditions, neurology for brain and nerve disorders, rheumatology for inflammatory or autoimmune disease and sleep medicine for sleep disorders.
Check the provider’s office locations Not every clinician works at every Laureate location.
Confirm new-patient availability Ask whether the provider is accepting new patients and how far ahead the next consultation is scheduled.
Verify insurance Give the office the complete carrier, product and network printed on the insurance card.
Ask whether a referral is required A specialty office may accept your plan while the insurer still requires a primary-care referral or authorization.
Ask which records to send The specialist may need recent laboratory results, imaging, medication history and prior consultation notes before the visit.
Save the complete address and suite Several Laureate offices are inside larger medical buildings or Northside campuses.
New-patient call script
“I would like to schedule with [provider or specialty]. My insurance is [complete plan and network]. Is the provider accepting new patients at this office? Do I need a referral or authorization, and which records should arrive before my appointment?”

How to create a MyLaureate account

Find the invitation email Look for a registration message from noreply@followmyhealth.com.
Open the registration link Use the link in the invitation rather than creating an unrelated FollowMyHealth account.
Create a unique login Set a username and strong password that you do not share with another adult patient.
Enter the invitation code Use the code supplied by Laureate Medical Group.
Accept the information-release terms Complete the connection between your FollowMyHealth account and the Laureate record.
FollowMyHealth support

1-888-670-9775

MyLaureate is not for emergencies. Call the office for a time-sensitive medical problem and call 911 for emergency symptoms.
Avoid the wrong Northside portal

MyLaureate versus Northside MyOneChart

The portal you need depends on where the care was provided
Portal Use it for Common reason information is missing
MyLaureate / FollowMyHealth Laureate physician messages, office appointments, available Laureate test results and refill requests. The service was performed by Northside Hospital rather than the Laureate physician office.
Northside MyOneChart Northside hospital laboratory results, radiology reports, medications, allergies, immunizations and visit summaries. The information belongs to Laureate’s separate physician-practice record.
Useful rule: Start with MyLaureate for a Laureate office visit. Start with MyOneChart for a Northside hospital admission, hospital test or hospital-based procedure.
Portal troubleshooting

MyLaureate not working? Check these causes

You never received the invitation Confirm that Laureate has the correct email address and ask the office to resend the FollowMyHealth invitation.
The invitation link expired Contact the office or FollowMyHealth support for a new invitation.
The invitation code is rejected Enter the code exactly and confirm that you are connecting the correct patient’s record.
A test result is missing The result may still be processing, waiting for provider review or stored in Northside MyOneChart.
A refill option is unavailable The medication may require an appointment, monitoring, a new prescription or prior authorization.
You created more than one account Contact FollowMyHealth support before continuing so records are not split between logins.
You need an appointment today Call the office rather than waiting for an online request to be reviewed.
Your symptoms are serious Call 911 instead of sending another portal message.
