Lloyd, the app is more succint depending on what you’re doing. At least that’s what the other half says who used to use the web based MyChart

But if you are trying to be employed in an office or hospital that uses Epic's electronic medical records systems, that part of the system was inaccessible.

As a patient however, once I figured out how to download and get my password into the app everything is 100% accessible. I can find out what kind of medical records they have on me, connect with doctors through email and be reminded of appointments to just to name a few things. It’s been a blessing because I’ve forgotten a lot of things well planning a wedding and it has saved me. I can also say I have gotten some questions answered rather than needing to go into the doctors office to ask them. And this is great because you never rember all your questions when you go in there do you?
