Norton MyChart and Norton eCare Help

Sign-up Questions

With Norton MyChart, you have access to personalized and secure online access to portions of your electronic medical record. It enables you to use the internet securely to help manage and receive information about your health. With Norton MyChart, you can:

  • Review your medications, immunizations, allergies, issue lists and medical history
  • View details of past and upcoming appointments
  • Receive some lab results online
  • Communicate electronically and securely with your care team
  • Review health education topics and discharge instructions from your provider
  • And more!

Norton MyChart may be used for routine communication with your health care provider’s office but is not intended to replace office visits. Providers may not be able to answer all your questions electronically. They may request that you schedule an appointment to make an accurate diagnosis and determine the best treatment plan for your condition.

IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING AN URGENT MEDICAL ISSUE, CALL 911 OR GO TO AN EMERGENCY ROOM.

No.

An email address is not required, but is preferred. When new information is sent to your Norton MyChart account, you will receive an email to let you know that new information is available.

My Medical Records

Many test results can be viewed in your Norton MyChart. When providers share new test results, they may attach a note to your results or include a secure patient message to help you understand the significance of the results. Your provider also may recommend that you make a follow-up appointment, provide you with additional instructions or ask you to call the office to discuss your results. Click on the “Health” menu and select the “Test Results” link. On the “Test Results” page, click anywhere within a row to display the results for that test. Don’t forget to check the “Show Hospital Results” box, so your hospital results also will display.

The information in your Norton MyChart comes directly from your electronic medical record. If you believe something is incorrect, there are two ways to request an amendment/correction:

  • Through your Norton MyChart — click “Ask a question” from your home page under “Quick Links,” click “Customer Service Question,” then select “Chart Correction” from the drop-down box.
  • Or message the health information management department here: mycharthim@nortonhealthcare.org

Some provider notes are available to view automatically through Norton MyChart.

Click the “Visits” menu and select the “Appointments and Visits” link, select the encounter date that you would like to view, and click the “Notes” tab.

If a note is not available for viewing, you may request the note. On the home page under “Quick Links,” click “Ask A Question,” click “Customer Service Question,” and select “Medical Record Request” from the drop-down box.

Your Norton MyChart is a snapshot of your care provided by Norton Healthcare. If there are test results that you do not see, you may send a message through your Norton MyChart to request those results.

On the home page under “Quick Links,” click “Ask A Question,” click “Customer Service Question,” and select “Medical Record Request” from the drop-down box.

Norton MyChart for My Family

You can view other family members’ medical records only if you have been granted proxy access to the person’s Norton MyChart account.

A “proxy” is simply a person who accesses and manages a patient’s record on behalf of that patient.

Proxy access is important for minor children (under age 18), who are not allowed to view their medical records online. A parent or guardian must use proxy access to view the child’s medical records via Norton MyChart. Parents can request proxy access to their children’s records through their own Norton MyChart account or by sending an email to mycharthim@nortonhealthcare.org or calling (502) 629-8766. Proxy access to a child’s account ends automatically when the child reaches age 18.

To access an adult’s record, that person must grant proxy access to you.

No. Due to the sensitive nature of medical information, each adult must sign and submit a Release of Information request and establish their own Norton MyChart account.

You should not. Communicating about another individual’s medical information using your Norton MyChart account would place their information in your health record. This information would not appear in the correct health record and could potentially jeopardize individual medical care and safety.

Once you have completed these steps, you can select “Begin Visit” up to 10 minutes ahead of your appointment. The provider will call you if you are unable to join the visit.

A video visit requires a desktop or laptop computer with a webcam, or a smartphone or tablet with the MyChart app, which is available for Android and Apple devices.

If accessing from a mobile device, check that you are allowing the MyChart app to access to the microphone and camera and that you close other open applications for the best connection.

What if the Norton eCare provider feels that I need an in-person examination after beginning my video visit?

In some cases, the provider may not be able to complete your video visit and may recommend that you see a provider in person. If your video visit is not completed, you will not be charged.

If you have questions about your video visit, you can send a secure message to a Norton eCare provider through Norton MyChart. If your symptoms don’t go away or worsen, call your Norton Healthcare provider. If your symptoms become severe, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
