Primary Electronic Health Record System
Dr. John W. Simon MD, associated with Children's Eye Care of Albany (childrenseyesalbany.com), likely utilizes MyChart as the patient portal. This is based on the strong affiliation of the ophthalmologists at Children's Eye Care of Albany with Albany Medical College and the Albany Med Health System. The Albany Med Health System has transitioned to a single, unified electronic medical record system and explicitly states that MyChart is their new secure online patient portal for managing healthcare across all System hospitals and clinic locations. MyChart is a patient portal product developed by Epic Systems, a leading provider of electronic health record (EHR) systems. The connection between Albany Medical Center's Ophthalmology department and "EpicCare Link," a service providing external access to Epic EHR, further supports the use of Epic as the underlying EHR system. Therefore, the patient portal vendor/branding used by John W. Simon MD (childrenseyesalbany.com) is likely MyChart, which is tied to the Epic EHR vendor.
