Research Analysis
Methodology & Findings

Hackensack Pathology Associates (HPA) does not appear to operate its own distinct patient portal. Instead, patients likely access their pathology results through the patient portal of the hospital or health system where their specimens were collected or where their treating physician is affiliated. Several major health systems in the region, including Hackensack Meridian Health and RWJBarnabas Health, utilize MyChart as their patient portal. MyChart is a product of Epic Systems, a widely used electronic health record (EHR) vendor. Hackensack Meridian Health, with which HPA is affiliated, uses MyChart for patient access to medical information, including lab and test results. Similarly, RWJBarnabas Health is transitioning to RWJBH MyChart, powered by Epic, which also provides access to various health records, including pathology reports. Given HPA's affiliations with medical centers that use MyChart, it is highly probable that patients of Hackensack Pathology Associates receive and view their pathology results through the MyChart platform provided by these larger health networks. While the specific internal Laboratory Information System (LIS) used by HPA was not identified, the patient-facing portal experience for accessing results is likely through MyChart, integrated with the EHR systems of their affiliated hospitals and health systems.
