A MyChart Proxy is a parent or legal guardian who has access to some of the information in your MyChart account.

Teen patients ages 12 to 17:

  • Sensitive information (for example: appointments, medications and test results related to sexual and reproductive health) will be kept confidential and not shared with proxies
  • You control your username and password; we encourage you to keep your password private and not share with others
  • Your parent/guardian can have a separate proxy account and can view your non-sensitive health information through that account

Young adult patients ages 18+:

  • If you would like your parent or guardian to continue to view your health information through their proxy account, you will need to sign a consent form or grant them proxy access through your MyChart account.
  • If you grant proxy access to your parent/guardian, they will be able to see all health information (both sensitive and non-sensitive)

If you have questions about privacy, ask your provider.
