CVPH Adds Convenient Lab Self Scheduling Option
MyChart subscribers can schedule blood draws at time, location of their choosing
PLATTSBURGH, NY (04/11/2023) – The University of Vermont Health Network – Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital (CVPH) has added another new feature, Lab Self Schedule, to its MyChart patient portal. This easy and convenient feature allows patients to self-schedule their blood draws at the Main Hospital, the CVPH Diagnostic Center, the Lab at Hudson Headwaters Family Medicine, Champlain, Alice Hyde Medical Center, Malone or the Fanny Allen Medical Office Building in Burlington, VT.
To access that function, MyChart users should log on, select visits and then request appointment.
“Lab Self Schedule gives our patients the ability to set up their blood draws at a time of their convenience and at a location that works for them,” explained Regional Director of Patient Access Melissa LaMountain.
MyChart, part of the industry standard electronic health record system Epic, was implemented at CVPH in April of 2022. Using the MyChart patient portal, patients can make appointments, communicate securely with their physicians, check on lab and test results and receive reminders about upcoming visits or recommended vaccinations and now, begin the check in process a week before the scheduled appointment or procedure.
Signing up for MyChart is simple, quick and can be completed at UVMHealth.org/MyChart.
