When you log in to MyChart using two-step verification, you may see an option called “Trust This Device.” This lets you skip the extra login code on your personal device (like your phone or home computer) for up to 90 days. It’s a safe way to make signing in quicker and easier on devices you use often.
Important: Only choose “Trust This Device” on devices you are the sole user on. Don’t use it on shared or public computers, like at work or a library.
You’ll also have the option to review or remove any devices you’ve trusted. This is helpful if you get a new phone, share a device with someone else, or just want to update your security settings.
Learn MoreEffective July 13, 2025 – All MyChart Users must utilize Two-Step Verification.
Protecting your health information is a top priority. No login method is completely secure and using just a username and password can still leave your account open to risks like phishing. Phishing is where someone tricks you into giving them your login information. To make your account more secure, our electronic medical record (Epic) now requires Two-Step Verification for all users.
“I don’t know what Two-Step Verification is, can you explain it?”
Two-step verification links your MyChart account access to your phone number, email, or both. When logging in, you will be sent a code to the associated phone number or email that you will need to enter to get access to your account. For information on the updated login process, please review Log Into MyChart.
“I already have Two-Step Verification enabled. Do I need to do anything?”
Since 2022, Two-Step Verification has been enabled automatically for all new users. If you have not opted to disable it, you will not need to make any changes. However, we do recommend making sure both a phone number AND email are verified in the event that one of the methods is no longer available to you.
For example, if you have changed phone numbers and can no longer access the old number you could still receive the Two-Step Verification code to the verified email address. For more information on verifying your phone number and email, please review Verify Personal Email and Phone Number
“This is frustrating! Do I have to do it everytime?”
There is a way to reduce the number of times you are asked to complete Two-Step Verification. If you are using a personal device, you can mark that devices as a Trusted Device. Trusted Devices, such as your own phone or computer, can be set to only require Two-Step Verification every 90 days. For more information, please review Trusted Devices and How to Manage Them in MyChart

When you log into your MyChart account, you will be prompted to select email or text message to
receive a single-use six-digit login code that must be used to complete logging in.
Two-step verification is a security protocol that enhances the security of your account by using a
secondary device or account to verify your identity. It adds a quick step to the login process to help
make sure the user is who they say they are. Using two-step verification to protect online accounts is
a common practice among healthcare and other organizations that deal with secure information.

With MyChart access, you can manage care for you and your loved ones. Here is how to set up access.
NOTE: This topic is focused on how to set up a MyChart account and access your health information. For instructions on how to log in once you have an account, please review Log Into MyChart.
There are several methods by which you can access MyChart for yourself or others you care for. Because MyChart provides access to protected health information, we have specific processes and safeguards in place to ensure access is appropriately granted in compliance with state and federal laws.
MyChart login access is available to eligible patients served by Franciscan Health or our partners. To be eligible for your own MyChart login, you must meet at least one of the following conditions:
Children (age 11 and younger) cannot log into MyChart. However, a parent/guardian can be granted proxy access to the child’s MyChart account as outlined below.
Adults (age 18 and older) can be granted access to another patient’s MyChart account. This is known as Proxy Access. The way this is done depends on the patient’s age and capacity to make their own medical decisions.
When someone is not capable of making their own decisions regarding their healthcare or access to protected health information, special care is needed to ensure that access to their MyChart account as a proxy is appropriate and supported with the proper legal documentation. For this reason, we currently do not allow requests to be submitted electronically for this type of proxy access.
To get proxy access as a caregiver of someone meeting these criteria, please call the MyChart Support Center at 1-877-900-5741 to discuss what documentation is needed based on your situation.

If you have never been a proxy for your child that is now an adolescent, you can review Requesting Limited Adolescent Proxy Access
A parent/guardian can be grated Full Adolescent Proxy Access with consent of the adolescent patient. Full Adolescent Proxy Access enables access to all information and features available. More information on requesting full proxy access can be found by reviewing Requesting Full Adolescent Proxy Access
Learn MoreParents/guardians can be granted proxy access their child’s (age 11 and younger) MyChart account. Proxy access allows the parent/guardian to review the child’s medical history, manage appointments, message the child’s provider, and much more.
NOTE: When a child reaches the age of 12, proxy access for the parent/guardian is automatically changed to Limited Adolescent Proxy Access.
NOTE: If you are a mother who delivered your newborn at a Franciscan facility after May 14, 2024, you may already have proxy access granted through Automatic Newborn Proxy setup.
