myConnection / MyChart: Login, Records, Results and Care Tools

North Mississippi Health Services uses myConnection, also described as MyChart, for secure patient access. It can help patients manage appointments, message providers, see test results, request prescription refills, review medications, check in before visits and access selected records.

Doctors, Appointments, The Desk and Nurse Link

North Mississippi Health Services includes hospitals, clinics, urgent care and specialty practices. For appointments, the official contact page lists 1-800-THE DESK or 1-800-843-3375. For medical questions that are not emergencies, NMHS lists Nurse Link at 1-800-882-6274.

Before an appointment, confirm these

• Exact address, clinic name, building, floor, entrance and parking area.
• Whether you need a referral, prior authorization or insurance confirmation.
• Whether labs, imaging, fasting, medication hold or forms are required.
• Whether the visit is at the hospital, a clinic, urgent care or another NMHS location.
• Whether you should bring records, imaging reports, medication bottles or a caregiver.

Emergency Department, Level II Trauma Center and Urgent Care Choice

NMMC-Tupelo is designated as a Level II Trauma Center and Secondary Pediatric Trauma Center in Mississippi’s trauma system. NMHS says NMMC-Tupelo is one of only three Level II Trauma Centers in Mississippi and the only one in the north half of the state with that designation.

Medical Records: MyChart, Secure Email or Print Copies

NMHS says patients can request medical records from an NMHS hospital or clinic through MyChart or secure email. For print copies, the official page says to return a completed Authorization for Use and Disclosure of Health Information with a copy of ID.

Billing, Price Estimates, Separate Bills and Financial Assistance

NMHS says patients may receive a bill showing original cost, insurance payment and remaining balance, and patients have the right to request an itemized statement and dispute charges they believe are incorrect. Billing can be confusing because hospital, clinic and outside-provider bills may be separate.

Separate bills you may receive

NMHS explains that certain services may bill separately from the primary NMHS bill. Examples include emergency room physician fees, anesthesia, pathology, radiologist interpretation, some lab testing and ambulance or emergency transport services.

Visitor Rules: General, Critical Care, Pediatric, Maternity and ED

NMHS visiting information says most hospitals allow inpatient visitation from 6 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., with one overnight visitor allowed. Some units have more specific rules, and visitation may be limited as needed for patient, staff or visitor safety.

Do not visit if you have these symptoms

• Respiratory infection symptoms in the past 48 hours.
• Temperature of 100°F or higher.
• Cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing.
• Chills, muscle pain, sore throat or new loss of taste or smell.
• Any contagious illness that could put patients or staff at risk.

Free Parking, Entrances, Drop-Off and Valet Reality

NMMC-Tupelo has free parking for patients and visitors. NMHS says there is an open parking lot in front of the main entrance and a parking garage near the East Tower, outpatient and emergency department entrances. NMMC-Tupelo does not have valet parking.

• Take a photo of your parking area, garage level, elevator and entrance name.
• Allow extra time for parking, check-in, elevators and finding the correct department.
• For limited mobility, use safe drop-off first, then move the vehicle to proper parking.
• For emergency symptoms, focus on getting the patient inside safely before parking details.

Dining, Starbucks, Subway, Bakery and Gift Shop

NMMC-Tupelo has several food options and a gift/floral shop, but hours are not identical. Check current NMHS visiting information if you are arriving late, on a weekend or during a holiday.

Feedback, Patient & Family Advisory Councils and Care Concerns

If something feels unclear during care, start with the nurse, nursing supervisor, doctor or department. NMHS also invites patients and family members to share feedback and participate in Patient and Family Advisory Councils.
