East Valley Hospital Planner
Use this guide before you call Chandler Regional Medical Center, open My Portal by Dignity Health, request medical records, pay a bill, visit a patient, find the emergency entrance, plan parking, or prepare for a scheduled test or hospital stay.
This page is built as a practical patient route finder, not a generic hospital description. It covers ER triage, CareAdvisor, portal support, medical records, billing, visitors, parking, services, official links, map help, call scripts and common mistakes.
Patient Task Finder: Choose the Right Chandler Regional Route
A hospital visit, portal problem, ER visit, visitor question, medical-record request and billing issue should not all be handled through the same route. Use this table before calling or driving.
| What you need | Best first route | Why it saves time | Prepare before contacting |
|---|---|---|---|
| Life-threatening symptoms | 911 / Emergency Department | Portal, billing, records and appointment tools are not emergency-response systems. | Medication list, allergies, ID and insurance only if safe to bring. |
| ER arrival or wait planning | Emergency services page / online ER waiting service when appropriate | Chandler Regional describes InQuicker for estimated arrival time, but urgent symptoms should not wait. | Symptoms, onset time, current medications, recent procedures and driver plan. |
| My Portal access | My Portal by Dignity Health and portal technical support | Arizona Dignity Health portal links can be location-specific; wrong links may fail. | Email invitation, date of birth, care location, phone and email. |
| Formal medical records | Health Information Management / Medical Records | Legal, outside-provider, disability, school or insurance records need release forms. | Photo ID, date range, record type, recipient name/fax/email. |
| Bill or payment issue | Patient Financial Services at 480-728-4300 | Hospital, physician, emergency, radiology, anesthesia and insurance balances may differ. | Statement, account number, EOB, payment receipt and insurance card. |
| Visiting a patient | Visitor guidance / unit call / 844-857-3138 | Unit-specific visitor rules can change by infection season and patient condition. | Patient full name, unit/room, ID, visitor question, parking plan. |
| Scheduled test or outpatient visit | Pre-registration / instructions from ordering provider | Imaging, therapy, surgery and outpatient testing may use different entrances or prep rules. | Order, referral, insurance authorization, fasting rules and medication instructions. |

| ER tool or term | What it means | Patient tip |
|---|---|---|
| ERAdvisor | Dignity Health says ERAdvisor can update patients and families by phone about emergency-department progress. | Provide a working cell phone number at registration and ask staff for help if you do not receive updates. |
| InQuicker online ER waiting | The ER page describes choosing an estimated arrival time for suitable cases. | Do not use online waiting for life-threatening symptoms; call 911 instead. |
| Fast Track | Listed for minor emergencies such as broken bones or cuts that may be treated and sent home. | Triage decides final placement; arrival order does not guarantee care order. |
| Acute Care | For patients needing immediate interventions or intensive monitoring, such as heart attack or stroke events. | Tell staff immediately if symptoms change while waiting. |

| Discharge summary | My Portal or Medical Records | Admission/discharge dates and receiving doctor details. | Waiting until the follow-up appointment day. |
| Records to another doctor | Medical Records release form | Recipient name, phone, fax, address and appointment date. | Assuming the doctor already has hospital records. |

| Legal, school, disability or insurance copy | Formal records request | Photo ID, date range, record type and authorization details. | Leaving recipient information blank or unclear. |

Using the wrong Dignity portal link
My Portal access is location-specific. Use official Dignity Health / CommonSpirit portal routes before entering health information.
Waiting online during emergency symptoms
Call 911 for dangerous symptoms. Online ER waiting tools are not for life-threatening problems.
Driving without confirming entrance
Main entrance, emergency entrance, laboring-patient entrance, imaging and Morrison Building may require different routes.
Requesting records too late
Records requests need authorization and processing time. Start early before follow-up, legal, school or disability deadlines.
Paying a confusing bill too quickly
Check whether insurance processed the claim and whether the bill is hospital, physician, radiology, anesthesia or another charge.
Visiting while sick
Do not visit with flu symptoms or recent exposure. Hospital patients can be vulnerable to infection.
