Share Your COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Information

As you start to go back to work, travel, or attend events such as a concert or sporting event, you might be asked for COVID-19 vaccination information or recent test results. You can share your information from MyChart quickly, easily, and securely by:

  • Generating barcodes that can be scanned from your mobile device.
  • Downloading a PDF document that includes your vaccination barcodes. (Note: test result barcodes are not included in the PDF.)
  • Exporting your information to another application.

The barcodes that appear in MyChart are created according to an open industry standard called SMART Health Cards. They contain verified information and only what is relevant to COVID-19, including your legal name, date of birth, COVID-19 vaccination information, and your most recent COVID-19 test result. You decide how much to share and with whom—you can share only your test results, only your vaccination information, or both. Note

NOTE: Your vaccination status and the number of doses shown in MyChart will vary depending on if you have received a two dose series (Pfizer or Moderna), a single shot vaccine (Johnson & Johnson), or if you’re eligible for a third dose or booster. Although we’ll do our best to determine vaccine eligibility for a third dose based on the information in your medical record, please follow CDC vaccine recommendations to determine your eligibility for the third dose for moderately to severely immunocompromised patients, or a booster for patients at increased risk.

Generate a QR Code with Your COVID-19 Information

  1. Make sure you have the latest version of MyChart on your device. Check for updates through the app store. 
  2. Log in to your St. Luke’s MyChart account.
  3. Enable the ability to view COVID-19 information prior to log-in. To do this, find COVID-19 in MyChart's main menu. Under Quick Access Options, activate "View COVID-19 information on the pre-login screen." You’ll then be guided through the COVID-19 status preview. Once you’ve completed the preview, you’ll be asked if you want to turn on the COVID-19 status preview or keep it off. You must turn the status preview on to view your COVID-19 information without logging in to MyChart.
  4. Now, you can generate a QR code either from the MyChart home screen, or from the menu. Using the menu, go to My Record > COVID-19.
  5. Click QR Codes. If you have both COVID-19 vaccinations and test results on file, you'll have separate barcodes for each of them, and you can choose whether to allow someone else to scan only one or both.

If you're using the St. Luke’s MyChart mobile app: a series of screens appears to help you verify that you have another app installed on your device into which you can export your information.

Select the checkbox for the information you want to share with the other app, and then click Export. Select the app you'd like to export your data into and follow the app's instructions.
