MyLinks Frequently Asked Questions.
What is MyLinks?
MyLinks is a free application that allows you to electronically gather your medical records from all your doctors, including those affiliated with Sharp Community Medical Group, and store them in one place, fully under your control.
What's the difference between MyLinks and a patient portal, like FollowMyHealth?
MyLinks allows you to store all your health data in one place instead of having your information over multiple portals. You can also correct and share your records with whomever you want. FollowMyHealth only connects you with your Sharp Community-affiliated doctor and allows you to view information from a Sharp hospital or Sharp Rees-Stealy doctor visit.
When using MyLinks, what data will I be able to view?
MyLinks pulls data from the common clinical data set which includes: allergies, conditions, documents, equipment, family history, immunizations, labs, medications, procedures, care plan and vital signs.
What should I do if I don't see my Sharp Community doctor on the list?
Contact MyLinks at Support@MyLinks.com. It may be that your doctor isn't connected with MyLinks yet. Doctors are being added routinely. Check back again soon.
Can I edit my information in MyLinks? If I do make changes, will my changes automatically update in my electronic health record (EHR) accessed by my Sharp Community doctor?
Yes, you are able to make changes to your own records in MyLinks. Each change is tagged in your doctor's EHR as 'modified by patient'. Any edits to the information will not update your doctor's EHR.
Can I manage my family's health records from one login?
Yes. Click on the "Health Record" tab and click "Share". Then select "Share Access" to link accounts.
How can I share my health data in MyLinks?
Log in to your MyLinks account. Under the "Health Record" tab, click "Share". Then select "Export your health record". You can either download a PDF of your health record or send your health record by email from your MyLinks account.
Can I delete my MyLinks account at any time?
Yes. Once you delete your account, your health data will also be deleted.
Will I be able to see my results in MyLinks prior to a follow up appointment with my Sharp Community doctor?
