Appointment Preparation using MyCare UCLH : University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

Data entered by patients

To keep your health record up to date, MyCare allows you to enter your own health information into your UCLH record. During the seven days before most appointments, you can use MyCare UCLH to review and update the list of your Medications, Allergies, and Health Issues. If made available to you, you will also be able to complete a questionnaire that relates to the reason for your appointment. You will be able to enter these updates only once every 30 days or longer.
