How we help

We help you add a designated caregiver in your IDPH patient account and complete the caregiver application. You can fill out the caregiver's application yourself, or IDPH emails the caregiver a form to finish. An adult patient may add up to 3 caregivers, and each caregiver application includes its own identity and address details.

Who this is for

Patients who want to name a designated caregiver in their IDPH account, and the caregivers they choose, who complete their own registration.

The steps

  1. Open Manage Caregiver(s) in your IDPH patient account and add the caregiver's details.
  2. Choose whether you fill out the caregiver's application or IDPH emails the caregiver a form.
  3. The caregiver uses the login link in the IDPH email to complete their registration.
  4. Upload a photo or a photo affidavit, an ID document, and proof of residence if needed.
  5. The caregiver signs the Caregiver Consent page and submits the application.

What to bring

  • The caregiver's name, address, and date of birth
  • The caregiver's email address
  • A photo of the caregiver, or a photo affidavit
  • The caregiver's driver's license, state ID card, or passport
  • Proof of residence if the caregiver's address differs from the ID

Common questions

How many caregivers can an adult patient add?

An adult patient may add up to 3 designated caregivers. Caregivers can be added or canceled later with the Manage Caregiver option, and we help with the forms each time.
