Yes. This is called “proxy” access and allows another person (eg. parent or caregiver) to login to their personal MyChart account, then connect to information about their family member who is an OU Health patient. To request this access, follow one of the below steps. Patients can take away or change this access at any time.
If your child is an OU Health patient, but you are not, ask about proxy access at your next visit to utilize MyChart or follow option #1.
To ask questions regarding a family member, you must be granted proxy access. Once given this access, login and connect to your family member’s account to send questions to your family member’s care team.
If you do not have proxy access, you are not able to send messages regarding family members since these questions would be connected to your medical record.
Each person must have their own MyChart account, which requires individual email addresses. You may share your MyChart record with loved ones by granting them proxy access.
To tell OU Health of the passing of your loved one, contact the Health Information Management Department at (405) 271-2310. If you have proxy access for your loved one, you will continue to be able to view health information up to 30 days from the date of their death.
If you are on your laptop or computer, please use either Google Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Microsoft Edge when starting a video visit. If you are on the MyChart app, it will launch right from the app.
Please call our MyChart Support Line at (572) 206-2579.
