Compare your test results over time
The Test Results under My Record allows you to view or download your results and read comments from your care team.
This latest update provides a new option to view trends and compare your past and present test results by month, year or custom time period.
In addition, a status banner lets you know if your provider has reviewed your results yet.
Message drafts automatically saved
If you start typing a message and can’t finish it, don't worry. New Messages under Communication are automatically saved as drafts so you can return to them later without losing your work and send it when you’re ready.
Communications preferences
Did you know you can change how you get notifications from us? If you prefer an email for your billing statements, a text message for your appointment reminders, and a mobile push notification to prompt you to complete preregistration before your next visit, you can select what you receive by adjusting your settings in Communication Preferences using the mobile app or the website.
If you’ve sent an invitation to a family member or caregiver to access your medical information, you can choose to be notified when they confirm their Health Care Proxy relationship in Account Settings > Communication Preferences > Account Management > Access Updated.
Preparing for your visit
Before your visit, you’ll receive a notification to complete preregistration information online. This helps our care team be best prepared to serve you and helps you spend less time at the registration desk when you arrive. To change the delivery of your reminders, go to Account Settings > Communication Preferences > Appointments.
New! Keep special assistance needs on file with us, such as wheelchair, animal or caregiver assistance, and vision or hearing assistance. You’ll have the opportunity to select all that apply during online preregistration.
You don’t need to have a MyChart account to complete preregistration. If you have an email address on file with your provider’s office, you’ll receive a link to preregister for your upcoming visit.
