Health Systems Warn Patients About Epic MyChart Patient Portal Phishing Scam

Multiple U.S. health systems have alerted patients to a phishing campaign impersonating Epic Systems' MyChart patient portal. Fraudulent emails claim patients have won rewards such as Medicare kits or senior health packages and attempt to steal login credentials, Medicare information, or financial data by mimicking legitimate MyChart communications with the platform's logo.

Why it matters: Patients of healthcare providers using Epic MyChart are targeted today; practitioners should advise patients to avoid clicking links in unsolicited emails, verify sender domains independently, and reset passwords if they have already logged in through a phishing message.
