Deactivating a MyChart account

If you're looking to deactivate your MyChart account, follow these steps:

• From here, follow the link in the Deactivate Your Account box to visit the account deactivation page. Make sure you read all of the instructions on this page before deactivating your account.

Add or remove proxy access

A proxy is a parent, caregiver or guardian who has access to your health record. This means they're able to see upcoming appointments, prescriptions, test results and more. Once you have your own MyChart account, it's up to you who has access to your health information. You can control this by adding or removing proxies, by following the steps below.

To add a new proxy

• From the MyChart menu, click Share My Record and select Friends and Family Access.
• Click Invite Someone to give proxy access to a parent or caregiver. They will receive an email notification inviting them to access your record. You can revoke their access at any time.

To remove an existing proxy

• From the MyChart menu, click Share My Record and select Friends and Family Access.
• Click Revoke to remove someone's proxy access. They will not receive a notification when you do this.
