MyChart is an online patient portal developed by Epic Systems Corporation that allows individuals to access and manage their health information securely. It is designed to enhance communication between patients and healthcare providers by offering a user-friendly interface for viewing medical records, scheduling appointments, and managing healthcare needs.
With MyChart, patients can view test results, prescription details, immunization records, and visit summaries. The portal also enables secure messaging with doctors, allowing patients to ask questions, request prescription refills, and receive follow-up care instructions. Additionally, MyChart supports appointment scheduling, virtual visits, and reminders for upcoming medical checkups or procedures.
One of MyChart’s key features is its integration with Care Everywhere, which facilitates the secure sharing of medical records across different healthcare systems, ensuring continuity of care. Patients can also manage billing, pay medical bills online, and access insurance information through the portal.
