View Upcoming Appointments or Complete Medical Questionnaires
After you login, your home page will show you a to-do list that will show any of the following:
- Upcoming appointments
- Health reminders
- eCheck-In and Medical Questionnaires for upcoming appointments
Here you can complete eCheck-In and answer questionnaires up to seven days prior to your visit, saving you time when you arrive.
The “eCheck-In” activity will ask you to review and verify your personal information, just as you would if you were registering with the front desk. You will then be prompted to complete any medical questionnaires related to your visit. If at any time you cannot complete part of the process, you can cancel or tap “Finish Later” to leave the activity and save your answers. If you come back later to continue, you’ll be returned to where you left off.
Interact with other apps
You also may import information from MyChart into other applications that, with your permission, can use that data to help you manage your care, medications, nutrition and more.
For example, Baptist Health Deaconess supports the Apple Health Records app on iPhone, which makes it easy for patients to see their available medical data from multiple providers whenever they choose.
With Apple Health Records, patients can have medical information from participating healthcare institutions organized into one view, covering allergies, conditions, immunizations, lab results, medications, procedures and vitals, and will receive notifications when their data is updated. Health Records data is encrypted and protected with the user’s iPhone passcode, Touch ID or Face ID.

Information is MyChart is the same as what is on file with your providers. You can correct this information at your next appointment; if you are concerned and want to change the information sooner, contact your provider's office.
You will generally receive an answer within 1-2 business days. Please note that MyChart should not be used for urgent situations. Please contact your provider's office by phone if the situation requires immediate attention. If you are experiencing an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Yes. This is called “proxy access” and allows an adult to access their family member's MyChart. This proxy access can be for minor children (under 14), or for an adult who has designated someone as a health care decision maker. A Proxy Consent Form can be completed in-person at the provider's office.
No. Medical information is specific and unique to every individual. Each person should have their own MyChart account. To ask questions for someone else, you must have proxy access to another person’s MyChart account, and then use their account to ask questions.
No. Because medical information is specific and unique to every individual, each adult must have their own individual MyChart account. People may grant proxy access to their spouse (or another adult) by contacting their provider's office and completing a Proxy Consent Form.
