Diagnostic imaging reports available online for patients through My Personal Records
On March 20, 2023, Albertans will be able to view diagnostic imaging reports in MyHealth Records (MHR), the single access point for Albertans’ personal health information. These reports will be viewable through the My Personal Records (MPR) application. This change is being made to provide Albertans with more access to their health information, and as an additional safety net for patient care within the system. These reports will be viewable with no imposed delay.
 
Diagnostic imaging reports from all Alberta Health Services diagnostic imaging facilities and most community diagnostic imaging facilities will be included in MPR. Once the changes are in place, users will see reports from that date and moving forward.

After the changes, patients will have immediate access to more of their own information. Providers may notice some changes in their patterns of work and may need to consider giving patients more information about the implications of different results when initially ordering a procedure. Physicians and other providers will continue to have access to reports through their usual channels, including Alberta Netcare.

To support Albertans, Alberta has created the MyHealth.Alberta web site, a trusted source of health information. To access click on the link MyHealth.Alberta.ca or type out the URL http://myhealth.alberta.ca.
 
MyHealth Records Support is available at 1-844-401-4016, 24 hours daily. Technical assistance is available between 8:15 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. (MT), Monday to Friday, but a connection to 811 for health-related inquiries, including test results, is available at all times.
