What is MyHealth? MyHealth is an online tool you can use to view your health information. It can help you answer questions such as “What are my lab results?” “What doctor treated me during my stay?” and many more. Currently, MyHealth contains any encounter you have at Holy Cross Hospital. Medical Group visits will be added eventually. Getting Started with MyHealth MyHealth is Holy Cross’ patient portal, a secure, online tool that offers patients an internet-based environment to view their health information. It’s an important step on your journey to better health. What can I do in MyHealth? You can: • View your health information from your inpatient stays at Holy Cross Hospital 24 hours after results are finalized. • View educational information about your medical conditions. • View lab results. Ambulatory (walk-in/outpatient) lab results will appear in MyHealth 96 hours after they are completed. Inpatient lab results will be available 24 hours after results are finalized. • More capabilities will be added in the future, including health information from Holy Cross Medical Group physician office visits. Is MyHealth secure? MyHealth is a secure and encrypted website. This means that you, the patient, are the only one who can access your health information in MyHealth. Remember to not share your password and keep it in a safe location to keep your data secure. Why should I enroll in MyHealth?
