Launching the Legacy Medical Record (LMR) application from MiChart


Introduction

The Legacy Medical Records (LMR) application allows users to view historic clinical data that was not converted into MiChart. This tool has replaced the CareWeb Viewer.

Access and Login Requirements

The LMR application (https://lmr.med.umich.edu) is an internal web application accessible only while connected to the Michigan Medicine network.

  • Login requires your Michigan Medicine (Level-2) password.
  • Okta Verify is required for all logins.
    • Note: Per the institutional security mandate, Okta Verify has replaced Duo Mobile for this application.
  • Access is controlled by membership in the HIM-PMR-USERS LDAP group. Membership can be verified using the Group Management Tool.
  • Only those granted explicit permission by an HIM manager will have access. To request access, please reach out to an HIM manager.



Instructions

To launch the LMR application from MiChart, follow these steps:

  1. Open the MiChart application.
  2. Access the "More" Menu: Within an active patient encounter in MiChart, locate the "More" menu activity. This is typically found in the top navigation bar.

 

  1. Navigate to "Other Clinical Systems": From the "More" menu dropdown, select "Other Clinical Systems." Note: You must be within an active patient encounter in MiChart to access "Other Clinical Systems" from the "More" menu.
  2. Select "Legacy Medical Records (LMR)": Within the "Other Clinical Systems" section, you will find and select "Legacy Medical Records (LMR)."

  1. Users have the opportunity to create a pin within MiChart by right-clicking while hovering over the name of module 'Legacy Medical Records' to set up a header tab for quick access to the external application shown below:

External LMR Application Login (if prompted): You will be redirected to the external LMR application. You may need to log in using your Level-2 credentials.

 

Important Note: Legacy Data Availability

Many patients in MiChart will not have any legacy data in LMR. When LMR is launched for such a patient, LMR will display an error message explaining that no legacy medical records exist for the referenced MRN.
