Ways We Communicate

MyChart

MyChart is the platform we use to provide you with secure, online access to your health information. You can use MyChart to communicate with your providers as well as the following:

  • View medical records
  • View test results
  • View medication information 
  • Receive messages
  • Schedule appointments
  • Request prescription refills 
  • Pay bills

Text Messaging

We can text message you about new information as it is available in MyChart. Text messages can include appointment reminders or other important updates from your health care providers. 

Text messages may include the following:

  • Alert that you have an update in your medical record, including new test result or message from your provider.
  • Reminders for upcoming appointments.
  • Request to share about your experience. We use surveys to improve care.

At this time, we do not offer two-way texting. This means that when you reply to a text message, we cannot respond via text. We are working to improve this in the future.
