Scheduling Appointments

Why can't I locate my provider in the "Scheduling" section of NYU Langone Health MyChart?

In most cases, if you have seen a provider within the last 3 years, you will be able to schedule an appointment with them in NYU Langone Health MyChart.

Not all providers use MyChart scheduling, or they may not have been added to your electronic record yet. If you do not see a provider listed, please call their office to schedule an appointment.

Your primary care provider should always be listed, regardless of time since your last visit.

How do I schedule an appointment with a new provider in NYU Langone Health MyChart?

You can always browse our doctors and schedule an appointment online with a new provider in Find a Doctor.

If you are using MyChart scheduling, go to Find a Doctor under “Schedule Appointment,” to find or request an appointment with a new provider. You can also go to “Find a New Doctor” under “Find Care” in the MyChart menu.

How do I get added to an appointment waitlist to see my provider sooner and how will I be notified?

Not all appointment types are available for waitlist. If the waitlist is available, it will appear as an option next to your existing appointment in MyChart.

If you are unable to schedule, or the waitlist option is unavailable in MyChart, the front desk staff at the practice you’re scheduling with can add you to their waitlist.

If an earlier time slot becomes available, you will receive either a MyChart message or a phone call from the practice with an offer to reschedule. After you accept the offer, you will see your appointment rescheduled for the new date and time.

If you have already scheduled an appointment, you can join the waitlist by following these steps:

Go to “Appointments and Visits” in the MyChart menu
Select “Scheduled Appointments”
Under “Upcoming Visits” select the visit you want to be waitlisted for
Under “Prepare for Your Visit” go to “Get on the Wait List”

Checking In at Your Appointment with Amazon One

What is Amazon One?

Amazon One is a service that uses images of your palm to identify you. No two palms are alike, and the Amazon One recognizes yours in seconds to confirm your identity during check-in.

Why are we making this change?

We are committed to providing the highest-quality experience for our patients. The new check-in system has several advantages:

Quick: It significantly reduces the time you spend checking in.
Personalized: Your palm is unique to you, and with this service, you can use it to identify yourself at check-in.
Secure: This new technology enhances the security of our check-in process. It prevents duplicate records and is just one of the ways we keep your health record separate from those of other patients—even if they have the same name as you.

Is registering for Amazon One mandatory?

We encourage all patients to sign up for this fast and easy check-in method, but it is not mandatory. If you choose not to sign up, our front desk teams will assist you with your check-in.

How do I check in at my appointment?

To check in with this new system, you must first sign up for Amazon One. You can do this through the NYU Langone Health app from your Apple or Android mobile device or at a kiosk during your next visit. When you arrive for your appointment, simply follow the instructions on the screen. The entire process is quick and easy.

Enroll in Amazon One from your Apple mobile device.

Enroll in Amazon One from your Android mobile device.

Is my privacy protected?

The protection of your personal information is a top priority for us. We never share your health information with Amazon One, and Amazon One cannot access your health information. Learn more about Amazon One’s privacy practices.

How do I unenroll from Amazon One?

You can unenroll from Amazon One on an Amazon One device or from your Amazon One Profile. On an Amazon One device, select "Help" then "Unenroll". On the Amazon One website or app, navigate to your Amazon One Profile, scroll to the bottom and select "Unenroll."

Why does my provider not appear in the Messaging section of NYU Langone Health MyChart?

In most cases, if you have seen a provider within the last 13 months, you will be able to send them a secure electronic message. But not all providers use MyChart messaging, or they may not have been added to your electronic record yet.

You should always be able to send secure electronic messages to your NYU Langone Health primary care provider, regardless of time since last visit.

If you do not see a provider listed in your account, please call their office.

To locate and send a message to an existing provider, make sure you have selected “Send a Message.” If more than one healthcare organization appears here, select “NYU Langone Health,” then choose either “Schedule an Appointment” or “Question for Your Care Team.”

Most providers respond within two business days. Please do not use MyChart for time sensitive questions or requests. Call your medical provider if you have an urgent question or dial 911 in an emergency.

Can I view my child’s or another family member's health record in NYU Langone Health MyChart?

With proxy access, a parent, legal guardian, or family member can log in to their own NYU Langone Health MyChart account, and then connect to the health information of the NYU Langone patient they represent.

Proper consent for proxy access depends on the age of the patient. Patients ages 12 and older can consent to give a family member or caregiver access to their MyChart account. For children ages 11 and younger, parents and legal guardians may request proxy access to their child’s health record in MyChart.

To get proxy access, you must first have your own NYU Langone Health MyChart account.
