Does anyone else have access to my personal health information in the MyCare Portal?

If you are an adult patient, only YOU or your legal guardian (if any) has access to your personal health information in the MyCarePortal.

How does Ryan Health protect the information I enter through the MyCare Portal?

From time to time, you may wish to enter additional personal information about your medical care through the MyCare Portal. All of the information you enter will be subject to the same privacy protections and only accessed by providers according to Ryan Health's Notice of Privacy Practices.

All of the personal health information of our patients is maintained on secure servers on-site in accordance with the applicable regulations of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH).

Do I have a role in protecting my personal health information?

Yes. Just as with on-line banking, you can keep personal information on the MyCare Portal secure and confidential by:

  • Never sharing your user name and password
  • Always “logging off” when you are done using the MyCare Portal
  • Resetting your password if you suspect the security of your log-on has been compromised.

You may also contact Patient Services to disable your account.

What if I forget my password?

No problem. There are two ways to deal with that:

1. You can reset your own password on-line by answering the security questions you set when you signed up initially. You will then receive an email with the information needed to reset your password.

2. You may also contact the Patient Services Department at:
