I don’t see the TytoCare device pairing option in the menu of the MyChart app
This may mean your MyChart app isn’t up to date. Please visit your app store and search for the MyChart app and select “update” to insure you are using the latest version of the app.
Can I do self-exams?
Absolutely, you can check your temperature or do other exams without doing a virtual visit one of two ways. On MyChart, under Menu, choose “TytoCare Pairing Device” and either (1) complete the TytoCare Academy, which is highly recommended, or (2) scroll down and choose the “Self check-up” option.
