MyChart & Multiple Hospitals

MyChart at three hospitals.
Still not one record.

Every person gets one health story, and one private Family Stork email address every clinic already knows how to use. If your family sees doctors at different hospital systems — each with its own MyChart login — Family Stork consolidates everything into a single timeline that belongs to you, not to any hospital.

The MyChart problem for multi-hospital families

MyChart is tied to a hospital system, not to a person. Your pediatrician's hospital uses one MyChart. The specialist downtown uses another. If your aging parent switched health systems twice, they may have three active MyChart logins — each showing part of the picture, none showing all of it.

Proxy access helps with kids, but it doesn't unify records across systems. You can log into each portal separately, but you can't search across them, share one record with a specialist, or hand a complete medical history to a new doctor without assembling it yourself from each portal.

In short — three things to know:
  1. MyChart belongs to the hospital that deployed it — records from other systems don't automatically appear there.
  2. Family Stork connects to supported portals via MyChart Connect and also works with every clinic through the email mechanic — no FHIR network check required.
  3. Every person gets one private Family Stork address shown on their record. Any clinic — MyChart or not — can send records to that address and they file into the timeline automatically.
How It Works

One address that works across every hospital system

Family Stork gives each person a private address shown on their record (the format is shown inside the app — it's assigned per person, not guessable). Share it with any clinic — your pediatrician's office, the specialist across town, the hospital system your aging parent transferred to last year. When they send records, visit summaries, or lab results to that address, they go directly into the timeline.

No new portal for the clinic to set up. No upload on your end. Just the same email address the clinic already knows how to use.

MyChart (multiple hospital logins)

  • Each hospital system has its own MyChart login
  • Records from Hospital A don't appear in Hospital B's portal
  • Proxy access for kids works within one system
  • Searching across systems requires logging in to each separately
  • Records stay in the hospital's system — not with your family
  • Exporting to another system requires each hospital's cooperation

Family Stork

  • One private timeline per person, held by the family
  • Connects to supported portals via MyChart Connect
  • Email mechanic works with any clinic regardless of EHR
  • One record you can search, share with any new doctor, or print
  • Multiple family members on one account — kids, self, aging parents
  • $99/year or about $10/month

Who this solves for most

Parents managing kids' records across systems

Your child sees a pediatrician at one health system and a specialist at another. Two MyChart logins, two different portals. Family Stork pulls both into one timeline — and any new doctor they ever see can email records to that same address, no matter which EHR the clinic runs.

Adult children caring for aging parents

Your mom has a cardiologist, a rheumatologist, and a primary care doctor at three different hospitals. Three portals, three logins — or one Family Stork record that all three contribute to. The same private address, every specialist. See how the caregivers hub works →

Adults managing their own records

You moved twice, switched insurance once, and now have records at four different provider systems. Family Stork gives you one record for a new doctor, a second opinion, or the next time you move. Your own health story →

MyChart Connect — and what it doesn't cover

Family Stork supports MyChart Connect, which lets you link supported patient portals directly to your Family Stork record. Records from those portals import automatically.

But not every clinic is in a major health system. Small practices, urgent care centers, independent labs, school nurses, sports medicine clinics — many of them use EHR systems that don't participate in FHIR-based exchanges. That's where the email mechanic fills the gap: every clinic that has email (which is every clinic) can send records to your private Family Stork address.

The honest version: MyChart Connect works well when your providers are in connected systems. The email mechanic catches everything else. You don't have to choose — Family Stork uses both.

What happens when you see a new doctor?

The old way: call your previous provider's records department, request a release, wait weeks, receive a PDF, upload it to the new portal (if they accept uploads), and hope the new doctor can read your past clinic's formatting.

The Family Stork way: share the private address shown on your record with the new clinic. They send records to it from their regular email. The records file into your timeline. When a new doctor needs your history, you can share a Family Health Passport — a clean, printable summary of what they need to know.

FAQ

Common questions

Does Family Stork replace MyChart?

No — and it doesn't try to. MyChart is your portal to each hospital's records. Family Stork is the record that belongs to your family. You can continue using each hospital's MyChart portal, and also use Family Stork to consolidate everything into one searchable timeline you own.

Is Family Stork affiliated with Epic or MyChart?

No. Family Stork is an independent product made by TruePrimAI, Inc. "MyChart" is Epic's product. Family Stork supports portal connections via MyChart Connect where available, but has no other affiliation with Epic.

Can I share my Family Stork record with a specialist?

Yes. You can share specific sections or generate a Family Health Passport — a clean summary a doctor can review before your first appointment. You control what's shared and with whom.

What if my clinic doesn't use FHIR or MyChart Connect?

The email mechanic works for them. Give the clinic the private address shown on your Family Stork record. They send records to it from their regular email — no portal, no FHIR connection, nothing for the clinic to learn. If you have a question about whether your clinic can do this, ask your doctor's office; every clinic that uses email can participate.
