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.

Is MyChart the only way to communicate with my doctor or access my patient 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.
Return to Top
If I send a message to my provider, when can I expect a reply?
You will generally receive a response within 1-3 business days. Note that MyChart messages should not be used for urgent situations. "Please contact your medical center if the situation requires immediate attention or dial 911 if it is an emergency."
Return to Top
Where can I update my personal information?
On the Personal Information page in MyChart, you can update your address, phone number, email address, preferred name, and other personal details at any time so that your clinic always has the most up-to-date information in your record.
Return to Top
When can I see my test results in MyChart?
Most of your test results are shared to your MyChart account as soon as we receive the final result, which may mean your provider has not seen them yet. Your provider may reserve the right to review certain results with you via a phone call before they are shared to your MyChart account.

MyChart for My Family
Can I ask questions regarding a family member from my MyChart account?
No, you cannot ask through your own account, but you can message on behalf of a family member if you have proxy access to their MyChart account. MyChart offers direct access to your personal health record and if you communicate about another individual's information, that communication would be placed in your health record. This information would not appear in the correct health record and could potentially jeopardize medical care. That is why you should message through proxy access.
Return to Top
No, due to the sensitive nature of medical information, each person must have their own MyChart account.
Return to Top
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. To give someone access to your medical record, grant access via a proxy invite through the Friends and Family Access page in MyChart.

Technical Questions
I forgot my username or password. What should I do?
If you're having trouble logging in, click the "Forgot Username?" or "Forgot Password?" link below the login fields for assistance. You will go through two-step verification to verify your identity so you can recover your username or password. You can also contact our MyChart Patient Support Line at 812-996-5536 to request assistance.

I didn't receive my two-step verification code. What should I do?
Try checking the spam or junk folders in your email. If the email with your code is not there, try clicking Resend Code. If you still didn't receive the email, it could be that your account has a different email address on file. If you have multiple email accounts, check one of the others to see if the verification code was sent there instead. If none of your accounts received the email, it could be that we don't have an email address on file. If this is the case, call our MyChart Patient Support Line at 812-996-5536 for quick support.

I was logged out of MyChart. What happened?
We aim to protect your privacy and information. If you remain idle for 10 minutes or more after you log in to MyChart, you will be automatically logged out. We recommend that you log out of MyChart if you need to leave your computer for even a short period of time.
