Your patients won’t have to fill out paperwork, and you’ll be able to manage everything all online.

Register Your Account With Login.gov

#FFFFFF

To ensure your account information is kept private and secure, each user is required to register through Login.gov. This technology provides multi-factor authentication to the login process. Multi-factor authentication simply means the use of more than one method to verify that a user is who they claim to be and adds an additional layer of security to protect your personal information.

Registering as a health care provider in My FAMLI+ is done in multiple steps, so we can verify that the person initiating the registration is the person responsible for accessing the account online. This verification is completed when you validate it using an email link sent during the registration process.
