Rush has launched a new patient mobile app designed to make navigating every aspect of health care as easy as pushing a button.

The new My Rush app creates a care hub on a patient鈥檚 smartphone where they can do everything from making appointments and navigating to their visits to checking symptoms and accessing same-day care options through the 海角原创 suite of digital care offerings.

鈥淲hen we set out to reimagine the patient experience through a 鈥榙igital-first鈥 lens, we knew we would need a tool that not only met patient needs for accessing test results, prescriptions, after-visit reports and paying bills but also created seamless access to all of Rush鈥檚 health offerings, both in-person care and virtual care,鈥 said Paul Casey, MD, MBA, senior vice president and chief medical officer at Rush.

鈥淢y Rush is now a unified platform that has everything you need to conveniently and seamlessly navigate your personalized care journey.鈥

MyChart 

My Rush is home to all MyChart features that allow patients to:

  • Access medical history and immunization records
  • Schedule appointments
  • View test results
  • Find detailed information about prescribed medications
  • Send messages to your care team
  • Pay your bill

Convenient new features

Powered by 海角原创, My Rush also offers an expanding collection of new features designed to make the Rush health care experience simpler and more convenient. This includes (in both English and Spanish):

  • Turn-by-turn directions to appointments in the car and within some clinics using a new "Let's Go" feature
  • Scheduling of any new Rush appointments, including in-person appointments as well as same-day and next-day virtual visits through 海角原创 Virtual Urgent Care and 海角原创 Virtual Specialty Care

My Rush also incorporates CLEAR, the secure identity company, to help patients easily create a new MyChart account if they don鈥檛 have one, or to reset their passwords in a few easy, secure steps. Patients will be offered CLEAR鈥檚 opt-in service to use unique characteristics 鈥 by taking a quick selfie 鈥 to securely and efficiently verify their identity. This provides an easy and secure password reset experience, so patients save time by not having to wait for help.

鈥淥ur patients have come to expect simplicity and convenience in all aspects of life, and health care has historically lagged behind other industries in leveraging technology to enhance their experience,鈥 said Ben Wolfe, senior director, Digital Transformation. 鈥淭he new My Rush app is built to personalize the patient experience today 鈥 while being a foundation for the future digital health innovations Rush is hard at work developing.鈥

鈥淲hen we introduced 海角原创 to the marketplace,鈥 Casey said, 鈥渨e highlighted how it creates unparalleled convenient access and how we want our patients to be able to get care where and when they need it. This new app is the tool that makes that happen 鈥 in the palm of your hand.鈥
