Mount Nittany Health is transitioning to Epic, one of the nation’s most trusted electronic health record systems. This upgrade is an important step in our commitment to providing safe, seamless and connected care for every patient we serve.
What this means for you
- A new and improved patient portal for appointments, test results and messages
- One unified medical record across all Mount Nittany Health locations
- Faster, more coordinated care with fewer forms and repeated questions
- Easier sharing of information with other health systems that also use Epic
MyMountNittany is moving to Epic’s MyChart
Our new MyChart portal will give you a simple, secure way to manage your health anytime, anywhere. While the Meditech portal will remain available until May 30, 2026, we encourage you to start using MyChart when it goes live on May 20, 2026.
With MyChart, you can:
- Schedule and manage appointments
- Track your medications
- View and pay your bills securely
- Connect directly with your care team
- See the whole picture of your health in one place
If you already use MyChart at another health system, you can link your accounts and view everything together.
Stay connected with text notifications
Text* reminders are the fastest way to get updates about appointments, messages and more. To opt in, text “HELLO” to 53582.
Epic brings better-for-the-planet paperless billing
We’re moving to paperless billing for hospital and physician statements. This change helps make your healthcare experience simpler and more convenient. Your statements will be available in your MyMountNittany portal, where you can view them anytime.
To make sure you don’t miss a statement, check that your email or text notifications are turned on in your MyMountNittany account. But know that this update must be made online — not through the app.
Prefer paper statements? You can switch back at any time through the mobile app or website.
Understanding MyMountNittany proxy access
With our move to Epic, we’re introducing a more secure and streamlined way to share healthcare information with trusted family members or caregivers.
If you currently have proxy access in Meditech, it will not automatically transfer to Epic. You’ll need to set it up again in MyChart.
What is proxy access?
Proxy access allows someone you trust — like a parent, spouse or caregiver — to view and help manage your health information through MyChart.
How to set up proxy access in Epic
There are two ways to establish proxy access in Epic:
Self-setup by the person giving access
The individual who wants to grant access can do so directly in MyChart:
- Log in to MyChart and click on the menu (hamburger icon).
- Go to the “Sharing Hub.”
- Select “Manage Friends and Family Access.”
- Click “Invite Friends or Family” and complete the requested information.
Request proxy access through our team
In some cases, you may need to request proxy access on behalf of another person from our team. To do so, contact us by email at MyMNH@mountnittany.org or phone at 814.231.7103.
