We are consolidating our records across Mercy communities in order to provide you one patient record that is available no matter where you receive care from Mercy. All your health information will be in one convenient location and will be accessible by all Mercy providers across all Mercy locations.
Your patient information is being consolidated into one record to bring you easier access to more consistent and comprehensive care. No more need for multiple MyMercy accounts or searching different locations to access your data. After July 1, all your health information will be in one convenient location, accessible by all Mercy providers across all Mercy locations.
To consolidate your records, we’ll require scheduled downtime from June 25 – July 1. This will impact some features on mercy.net and MyMercy. To schedule appointments during this time, please call your provider’s office directly. Appointment reminders and Pre-visit/Fast Pass wait list activities will also be affected.
If you had more than one MyMercy account prior to July 1, your records have now converted to one MyMercy Account. If you have an account tied to care you’ve received in the St. Louis area, please login with that account. If your accounts are tied to care you’ve received in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Springfield or Joplin communities, please login to the account you use most frequently. If you have trouble accessing your MyMercy account, please call 888-986-3729.
