Setting up your MyChart account for COVID-19 testing

July 23, 2020

Texas Children’s has transitioned the management of COVID-19 workforce testing to Epic which, through MyChart, allows Texas Children’s employees and Baylor faculty and staff to:

  • Access COVID-19 testing appointments that are scheduled via Employee Health
  • Receive secure and confidential COVID-19 test results
  • Quickly access return-to-work instructions

We encourage you to activate a MyChart account in the event that a COVID-19 test is needed. Follow the instructions below to set up your account. You can also learn more about MyChart here.
