Family member and caregiver proxy access
During your stay, loved ones can access your inpatient information and stay up to date using the MyChart Bedside tablet you are provided. If you do not have a MyChart account and would like to provide a family member access to your inpatient information who is not in the hospital with you, you will need to create a MyChart account and provide them proxy access. You can sign up for MyChart using the MyChart Bedside tablet or the website.
To add a health care proxy, log in to MyChart and search “sharing” from the main menu and select the proxy access sharing option that meets your needs. Once you add a health care proxy, your loved one or caregiver will have the ability to view your health information or communicate with your health care provider.
