FAQ

  • When does my temporary password expire?

    Temporary passwords have different expirations based on how you received them. Text-based temporary passwords expire in 6 hours, email temporary passwords expire in 24 hours.

  • Why doesn't my username and password work?

    If you have created a portal account, and haven't signed in or used the account in more than a year, the account is set to a deactivated stage.

    Contact the office you set up the account with and ask them to resend the temporary password link and this should re-establish your account.

  • Do I need an appointment to sign up for MyMSUHealth?
    You don’t need an appointment, but you must be a current patient of MSU HealthTeam. Current patients have had an appointment with their provider within the past 3 years. You can read our instructions or download our pdf instructions on how to sign up.
  • I tried signing up for the portal at home but the system couldn't find my account?

    Typically, there are a few reasons your account can’t be found:

    1. Your name, phone number or address doesn't match what we have on file for you
    2. When signing up as a Family Member you have input your information instead of the patient’s information on the initial screen, OR
    3. You haven’t been seen within the past 3 years.
    Please contact the office location you are seen at to get further assistance.

      3. Announcements: Weather cancellations, immediate cancellations, and other announcements that are generally not health-specific.
