Look for these upcoming MyChart upgrades

In November, we’re upgrading MyChart so families can find the information they require faster and more easily.

Here are the enhancements you can expect on Nov. 4:

• Ability to mark immunizations, such as the flu shot, as complete in MyChart, even if received outside of Akron Children’s.

• Test results will now be released four times a day: 10 a.m., 1 p.m., 4 p.m. and 7 p.m.

• Email ticklers to alert patients about security events in MyChart, such as a password change or locked out account.

• Mobile optimized screens that automatically resize to whatever screen a patient is using, whether a desktop, tablet or smart phone.

• Settings Menu has been renamed to Profile Menu.

For more questions about the 2018 MyChart upgrades, or MyChart in general, call 330-543-4400 or mycharthelp@akronchildrens.org. During the transition on Nov. 4, MyChart will be down at 12 a.m. for a few hours.
