Additional Medical Imaging Results Accessible via MyHealthNL

Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Health Services is pleased to announce that additional medical imaging reports are now accessible via MyHealthNL. With this expansion, patients can securely view all medical imaging reports from X-rays to magnetic resonance imaging (MRIs), computed tomography (CT) scans, mammograms, ultrasounds and more from across the province.

By empowering patients with secure access to their medical imaging reports, MyHealthNL promotes a more collaborative and informed approach to care. Since its launch on July 4, 2024, over 100,000 people across Newfoundland and Labrador have signed up for MyHealthNL. This milestone reflects the growing value of the app in providing easy, secure access to personal health records and health resources.

“Reaching 100,000 people highlights the benefits of MyHealthNL as a trusted app. It provides secure access to health information, putting it directly into the hands of patients and families to take a more proactive role in managing their health,” said Stephen Greene, chief information officer and vice president responsible for Digital Health, NL Health Services. “MyHealthNL is a clear example of how NL Health Services is leveraging digital technology to improve health in our province, and a reflection of our commitment to modernizing health-care delivery.”

“The MyHealthNL app has been a great tool to help Newfoundlanders and Labradorians manage their health,” said the Honourable John Hogan, KC, Minister of Health and Community Services. “We have heard requests for the app to have more features and are happy to see that additional medical imaging reports are now available. We look forward to working with NL Health Services to continue to bring the services people want to the MyHealthNL app.”
