When can I see my test results in MyChart?
You can view your lab and test results as soon as they are available. Your provider receives this information at the same time, so it’s possible that you may see these results before your provider has reviewed them. For common lab tests, additional information is added to MyChart to help you understand how your results compare to normal ranges. You can expect your provider to reach out directly to you about your results if there are any concerns.
