Is there a fee to use MyChart?
No, MyChart is a free service for all patients.
What do I need to use MyChart?
You need access to a computer or mobile device connected to the Internet and an up-to-date browser (such as Edge, Chrome, Firefox, or Safari). You can also use the MyChart mobile app on a mobile device.
How is MyChart secure?
We take great care to ensure your health information is kept private and secure. Access to information is controlled through secure activation codes, personal usernames, and passwords. Each person controls their password, and the account must be accessed using that password. On mobile, the account may also be accessed using face ID or fingerprint login. Unlike conventional email, all MyChart messaging is done while you are securely logged in to our website or mobile app.
You can ensure that your account stays secure even if someone else has your username or password by turning on two-step verification. When this feature is turned on, you must enter a code that is sent to you by email or text message to log in to MyChart, in addition to using your username and password. For more information, check out our helpful video on two-step verification.
You might receive email or text notifications that contain links to MyChart. These notifications allow you to login to MyChart securely using a link that expires after a short time. Keeping your MyChart account secure means keeping your phone number and email account secure. If you think that your phone number or email account may be compromised, you can change the phone number or email account on file on the “Personal Information” page in MyChart.
Your Medical Record
When can I see my test results in MyChart?
With MyChart, you can view most test results as soon as they become available. Know that you will likely see results before your healthcare provider has had a chance to review them. After your provider reviews your results, you might see additional comments and interpretation in MyChart.
Where can I update my personal information?
On the Personal Information page in MyChart, you can update your phone number and email address at any time so that your clinic always has the most up-to-date information in your record.
What should I do if some of my information in MyChart is incorrect?
Your MyChart information comes directly from your electronic medical record at your provider’s office. Ask your provider to correct any inaccurate information at your next clinic visit. Your health information is reviewed and updated in your electronic medical record after each visit.
MyChart for My Family
Can I view a family member’s medical record in MyChart?
Yes, you can. MyChart proxy access allows you to access the medical records of your family members and others you care for, with their permission. You must be at least 18 years old to have proxy access to another person’s medical record.
You might also want to grant a family member or friend access to your medical records when you need assistance managing your appointments and other medical needs.
Can my spouse and I share one MyChart account?
No, due to the sensitive nature of medical information, each person must have their own MyChart account.
