What is MyChart?

With your patient experience always our top consideration, we have developed an enhanced member portal through MyChart. Through our new portal, your medical information and administration will now be accessible in one place regardless of where you receive care within Mount Sinai—at your onsite health center, The Health Center at Hudson Yards, or within the Mount Sinai Health System—for ease of managing your health care with us. Similarly, all Mount Sinai providers can seamlessly access your medical records in real-time to deliver the most coordinated and connected care possible.

How do I access the new Health Center member portal in MyChart?

Your enrollment for the Health Center powered by Mount Sinai portal has been completed. There are two ways to access the Health Center at Hudson Yards portal:    

1. by downloading the MyChart iOS or Android app to your device and adding Health Center powered by Mount Sinai as the organization, or  
2. by visiting mychart.mountsinai.org/healthcenter via your web browser.  

To log in to the Health Center powered by Mount Sinai portal, use your existing Mount Sinai MyChart (MyMountSinai) username and password credentials. If you don’t know your username and password, please click “forgot password” and follow the reset prompts.  

What is the difference between MyMountSinai and the Health Center powered by Mount Sinai in MyChart?

MyMountSinai is the patient portal for the Mount Sinai Health System and is open to the public. The Health Center patient portal is exclusively for partners and employees who are eligible for their employer-sponsored health center. 

If I have a MyChart account through Mount Sinai (MyMountSinai), can I use my existing username and password to log in without re-registering?

Yes, your enrollment for the Health Center powered by Mount Sinai portal has been completed. To access your account, please use your existing MyMountSinai username and password to log in to view your medical records, schedule visits with providers, and more.

I am an existing MyMountSinai user, do I need to keep MyMountSinai in addition to MyChart?

It is your choice whether to keep both apps, but it is not necessary. Once you log in to your Health Center powered by Mount Sinai account in MyChart, all your registered Mount Sinai information will be visible upon login. MyMountSinai features are available in your Health Center powered by Mount Sinai MyChart account.

Does my employer have access to information inside of the Health Center member portal in MyChart?

No, we take your health care privacy very seriously. All patient information is HIPAA-compliant and subject to strict legal protection. Your employer will never be permitted access to your information in MyChart.

If I am not in North America, can I access the Health Center member portal in MyChart?

No. International functionality outside of North America is not available.

Will all my patient information still be available to me after moving to the new Health Center member portal in MyChart?

Yes, the same electronic medical record system is accessible through both portals. There is no loss or transfer of your protected information, records, medical history, or appointments.

If I have an appointment scheduled in the previous member portal, will it automatically transfer over to the new Health Center portal in MyChart?

Yes, the scheduling system used by our care teams is the same for both member portals.

Can I continue to use the previous Health Center member portal? Should I keep it on my device(s)?

No. After a brief transition period, the previous member portal will be inactive. All personal information acquired will be retained in Mount Sinai’s electronic medical record and will be accessible through the new portal in MyChart.

What if I also have access to The Health Center at Hudson Yards?  Is that the same member portal?   

Members of The Health Center at Hudson Yards will automatically be linked to the Health Center powered by Mount Sinai portal. This means you can conveniently access your employer-sponsored health center and The Health Center at Hudson Yards using one account in MyChart.  

What happens if I get a message in the Health Center member portal that my account is inactive?

If you are no longer eligible for your employer-sponsored Health Center benefit, your private medical information will still be accessible to you through the Health Center member portal. If you think your account may be erroneously inactive, please contact your employer for resolution.
