Campus Construction Update

Starting September 14, we’re closing the Menino building lobby entrance. This, along with the ongoing Yawkey building entrance closure, will help us bring you an even better campus experience that matches the exceptional care you've come to expect. Please enter the Menino and Yawkey buildings through the Moakley building, and make sure to leave extra time to get to your appointment. Thank you for your patience.

Frequently Asked Questions about MyChart

I lost my login information. What should I do?

Go to the homepage of the MyChart website or app and click “Forgot password?” or “Forgot username?” to recover your password information. You’ll need your username to get a new password. You can also call us at 844-635-1390.

Are there differences between the MyChart website and the app?

Both the website and the app allow you to do all the same tasks, such as communicating with your doctor and checking test results. But you may find one or the other easier to use depending on what device you are using and your own preference.

Why am I seeing test results and doctor's notes in MyChart?

Because of a federal rule, BMC is releasing notes and results without a time delay to MyChart. That means that you, and anyone you've given MyChart access to, will see test results without a time delay, a summary of what you told the doctor or nurse, findings from exams, your doctor's assessment or diagnosis of any medical conditions, and your treatment plan and next steps. We hope this information will help you take care of your health the best you can. For more information, see our information sharing FAQ..

I have access to MyChart access for a patient other than myself. Why am I seeing limited information?

Access to patient accounts in MyChart that are not your own is known as proxy access. Based on the type of relationship you have to the patient you are accessing, you may see differences in the features or information that are available. Click here to see the differences in what you can see in your own MyChart account and what you have access to when acting as a proxy.

To request access to a patient account that is not your own, please contact that patient’s primary care physician at BMC.
