Welcome to My UNC Chart
My UNC Chart provides you with online access to your medical record. It can help you participate in your
healthcare and communicate with your care team.
From My UNC Chart, you can:
Review summaries of your previous appointments, including issues addressed during each visit, your
vital signs, and tests or referrals that were ordered.
View your medications, including dosage information and instructions, and request a refill.
View new lab results, as well as trends over time. For example, view results for your past cholesterol
tests on a graph to see if you're close to meeting your target number.
Access your family members' medical records. For example, you can view your child's growth charts,
immunization history, and upcoming appointments.
This guide provides an overview of many of My UNC Chart's features and how to use them.
Sign up for a My UNC Chart account
To sign up for My UNC Chart, you must be at least 13 years old. There are several different ways to sign up for
My UNC Chart:
Your provider’s office staff can sign you up while you're at the front desk or in the exam room.
You may receive a My UNC Chart activation code on your After Visit Summary after your appointment.
If you are 18 years or older, you may receive a text or email with an activation code when you schedule
an appointment, come in for an appointment, or check out from your appointment.
If you are 18 years or older, you may be able to sign up online to create a My UNC Chart account
without an activation code through Experian. This is a third-party service that matches your personal
information against your medical record.

1. From the My UNC Chart login page, click Use Your Activation Code in the New User? section.
2. Enter your activation code, date of birth, and home zip code. Click Next.
3. You then will be prompted to enter a Two-Factor Authentication code for extra security
4. On the next page, choose the following:
My UNC Chart username. This should be something that others wouldn't be likely to guess but
easy for you to remember. It cannot be changed at any time.
Password. This should be a unique combination of numbers and letters, using both uppercase and
lowercase letters. Choose a password that you don't use for other websites.
5. On the next page, choose whether you want to receive a notification message in your personal email
or via text message when there is new information available in your My UNC Chart account. You can

2. Choose if you want to have the one-time code sent to your email or cell phone.
3. Enter the code and click "verify."
How to Disable Two-Factor Authentication
If you do not want to use this feature, you can disable it from your account. You will need to verify your
account through two-factor authentication one more time to complete the disable process.

2. Select "Turn off two-step verification."
3. Enter your password and click "continue."

this feature back on, if you change your mind.

you. Using My UNC Chart, you can generate a share code and provide it to the person you want to share your
health data with. This might be a doctor, chiropractor, physical therapist, dentist, or school nurse, for example.
The share code recipient enters that code and your date of birth on the Share Everywhere website to receive
one-time, temporary access to your health information. The person who views your information can also write
a note back to your health system to help keep your care team informed of the care they provide.
1. Go to Menu > Share Everywhere.
2. Enter the name of the person who will be viewing your record and request the share code.
3. Tell that person to go to www.shareeverywhere.com to enter the code along with your date of birth.

Medications
Messages
