MyNM is the Northwestern Medicine portal.

How to look for Northwestern

Reviewed 26 October 2026. The directory listed 1,290 brands. That is not 1,290 working connections. No Northwestern connection or import was observed.

1. Sign in and choose the person

   The grant is for that person and MyNM, not every portal login you have.

2. Settings → Connections, then Northwestern Medicine

   A directory row is not an enabled connection. If Northwestern Medicine is not enabled, leave a request. A request does not start consent or an import.

3. Open MyNM only if it is enabled

   This page does not open MyNM. If the connection is enabled, you approve access there. A Triangle account is not a MyNM login.

4. An import is a separate step

   No Northwestern import was observed. If you later start one, you choose the categories. What arrives depends on Northwestern Medicine, your permissions, and import limits.

5. Read the status if an import starts

   Connected is authorization only. Partial means some records arrived. Complete covers that run, for the categories you chose, within what Northwestern Medicine sent. There is no scheduled sync.

What a Northwestern import can include

No Northwestern import was observed, so this page does not list what Northwestern Medicine will send. Messages and billing are not this path.

• Medication orders are not proof you take that medicine now.
• Records Northwestern Medicine does not send are still missing when a status says Complete.

The account you need

You need a Triangle account that can add records for that person, then MyNM’s own authorization. Northwestern Medicine’s public name is MyNM, powered by MyChart. Some private-practice portals stay separate. Epic, MyChart, and Northwestern Medicine do not endorse Triangle. Another hospital is a separate connection.

Connected is not imported

A connection stores access. It is not a finished import, a complete history, or clinical accuracy. There is no scheduled sync. Disconnecting does not delete records already saved.

If Northwestern is not enabled

Leave a request in Connections. It does not open MyNM or retrieve records, and it is not a HIPAA request. For a formal copy, contact Northwestern Medicine.

What this does not promise

• Not every hospital, and not every Northwestern name in the directory.
• Not a complete history, and not an instant import.
• No scheduled sync.
• No Epic, MyChart, or Northwestern Medicine endorsement.
• A finished import is not clinical accuracy.
• Medication orders are not current use.
• Disconnecting does not delete saved records.

Other ways to add records

• Participating providers

  A different consent flow in Connections. It can return nothing. It is not a MyNM login.

• Medicare claims

  Billed services from Medicare.gov, not Northwestern visit notes. Not on every account.

  Medicare Blue Button

• Files you already have

  Upload what you saved from MyNM. Not every file can be read.
