When can I see my test results in MyChart?
Generally within 1-4 days. Certain test results are not released online. Please contact your doctor’s office if you do not see your test results online after 5 days.
Why haven’t I gotten a notification about my test result yet?
To prevent overloading you with information, you will only receive one notification of new test results per eight hour period. If multiple test results are available, you will see them when you log in to your MyChart account.
What do I do if haven’t heard from my provider regarding my test result?
You may receive test results in your MyChart account prior to your provider or nurse viewing them. As always, providers will follow-up with patients regarding test results in a timely manner during normal work hours. If you are awaiting results from a test sensitive in nature, you may want to wait to view your results until you have discussed them with your provider.
Why are certain test results not shared electronically via MyChart?
Your provider can determine which types of test results are able to be accessed through MyChart. Further, tests of a very sensitive nature are not released to MyChart.
What clinical notes are available in MyChart?
Clinical notes are written by your healthcare provider during your visit to summarize important information. The following clinical notes are available in MyChart:
You may submit a request to our Health Information Department to view other clinical notes in your medical record.
Why can’t I see my clinical notes from my visits before February 9, 2021?
Only clinical notes created on or after February 9, 2021 are automatically available in MyChart. To view notes prior to this date, please submit a request to our Health Information Department.
How do I request a change to my clinical note?

To request a change to your clinical note, please complete an Amendment Request. You may also request amendment forms directly from Health Information Management by email at HIM@johnmuirhealth.com.
If I send a message to my doctor or nurse, when can I expect a reply?
You will generally receive an answer within 1-3 business days. Please note that MyChart 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.
Can I view a family member's health record in MyChart?
Yes, you can. This is called Proxy access and allows a parent (or guardian) to log into their personal MyChart account, and then connect to information regarding their family member. Request to Share a Record through your MyChart account or complete a Proxy Consent Form and return it to one of our medical facilities to request access to this convenient service.
Can I ask questions regarding a family member from my MyChart account?
MyChart offers direct access to your personal health record and communicating about another individual's information would be placed in your health record. This information would not appear in the correct health record and could potentially jeopardize medical care.
Can my spouse and I share one MyChart account?
No, due to the sensitive nature of medical information, each adult must establish their own MyChart account.

Please ensure you enter your username exactly the same way as when you signed up for your account (e.g., “macarthur” vs. “mcarthur”).
You may also try logging in with your email address if it is not shared with anyone else. For example, if the email address on your account is the same as the email address on your spouse/partner’s account, then you will not be able to use it to log in.

When retrieving your username, please check for misspellings and make sure you enter the name you used when you created your MyChart account. For example, if you changed your last name your last login, please enter your previous last name to retrieve your username.
Please ensure that you have an active MyChart account. If you do not have an account, we will not be able to retrieve your username. To sign up for an account, please contact your provider and request an activation code to create your account.
I forgot my password. What should I do?
If you already have a MyChart account and know your username, please use the Forgot Password link on the MyChart login page to reset your password. If you do not know your username, please use the Forgot Username link on the MyChart login page first.

My security question answers don't work. What should I do?
Answers must match exactly what was entered when you set up your security questions (e.g., “University of Colorado Boulder” vs “University of Colorado“). Security answers also take into account spaces between words (e.g., “Dalycity” vs. “Daly city”).
I can’t remember the answers to my security questions. What should I do?
If you are not able to remember the answers to your security questions, please contact our Patient Support Center at (925) 941-2001 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Please note that our Patient Support Center is not able to schedule patient appointments.
