MiCare is a secure messaging service that allows direct communication between patients and providers for medical questions, lab/imaging results, requesting appointments or renewing medications. The big Navy hospitals have implemented a similar program, and in my experience it saves a lot of time and hassle on both ends. Unfortunately, it is not available for active duty Navy in Misawa yet, but is available for all of their dependents. Dependents just need to register in person at the front desk of whichever clinic they usually go to (Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, etc). Feel free to contact Navy Medicine at 226-6136 with any questions or issues registering.
