February 2025 - Updates for all patients
Test results
Your results will be clearly labeled normal or abnormal. Additional details are available by clicking on the specific test result. If you have questions about a specific result, you’ll now be able to message your care team directly from the results screen.
Visit MyChart > Menu > My Record > Test Results.
Bill pay
You can now generate an itemized bill whenever you want and see the cost breakdown of a bill anytime. Update your payment methods anytime you want. Patients at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, stay tuned for changes to our payment options coming later this spring. We'll accept credit cards, digital wallet, MyChart and ACH payment. Only the Central Cashiering Office will accept cash.
Visit MyChart > Menu > Billing > Billing Summary.
Preventive care
We’ve made it easier to stay up to date on preventive care. Your recommended appointments can be scheduled right from your list of health reminders.
Visit MyChart > Menu > My Record > Preventive Care.
Security
Try the latest two-factor authentication option from Google or Apple Authenticator to add an extra layer of security to your account.
Visit MyChart > Menu > Account Settings > Security Settings.
Appointments
You’ll now receive notifications for appointments you have available to schedule in your account. If you’re using your appointment details to launch driving directions to your visit, MyChart will ask you to allow permission to share the destination address with your map application.
Visit MyChart > Menu > Appointments.
My Care Plans
When your doctor enrolls you in a Care Companion plan, you’ll be able to customize To-Do notifications during the set-up process. Choose time of day you receive your reminders and more. For pregnant patients, you’ll find expanded features in your care plan, with a personalized pregnancy timeline, custom education and quick links to message your care team.
After you’ve had your first pregnancy appointment, you’ll also have an option to sign up for Pregnancy Updates from your MyChart Health Feed. Joining gives you access to additional information. You’ll receive a digital notification each time new information is available.
Visit MyChart > Menu > My Care Plans.
Design updates
We’ve made improvements to simplify the look of several activities in MyChart including, Health Trends (formerly Health Reports), Health Summary, Track My Health and Contact info. You’ll notice clickable links in your Health Summary and clear graphs of vitals from past visits for easy comparison over time.
Link my accounts
If you are a health care proxy for a loved one with appointments at multiple health care organizations, you’ll now be able to see all their information, even if you are only a proxy at one of the organizations.
Visit MyChart > Menu > Link My Accounts.
