What is OSF MyChart?

OSF MyChart gives you direct online access to some of your Electronic Medical Record (EMR), where your health information is securely stored and password protected. It also offers a convenient way to communicate with your doctor and care team.

Best of all, this functionality is available to you 24/7 atosfmychart.orgor with the MyChart mobile app available for Apple and Android devices.

Message your care team

Communicating with your provider is as simple as sending an email – but even more secure when you use OSF MyChart. Utilize the message center to request prescription refills, schedule an appointment or send questions or updates to your provider.

Please Note:Questions for your provider are intended for non-urgent matters only. To ensure quality care, some concerns may require a virtual or in-person visit with your provider.Please dial 911 or go to the nearest emergency department if you are experiencing a medical emergency.

Message exchanges are recorded in your permanent medical record and should be used to communicate health care needs only. We do request common courtesy from patients when messaging a provider and may restrict patient access to OSF MyChart messaging for misuse of the feature (i.e. foul, abusive and/or threatening language).

Here are some other need-to-knows when it comes to communicating with your care team:

  • When to expect a response

    • You can typically expect a response by the end of next business day.
    • Messages are reviewed during business hours - Monday through Friday. Messages are not reviewed during the evenings, weekends or holidays.

  • When to send an OSF MyChart message

    • You have a follow-up question about a recent visit
    • You have a follow-up question about your test results
    • Short questions or updates that require a simple, but not immediate response

  • When to schedule a visit

    • New symptoms that require clinical decision making
    • Multiple symptoms and/or concerns that require more time and discussion
    • Chronic disease management (i.e. check-in or flare-up)
    • It’s been longer than a year since your last visit
