What is happening to eTang?

  • University Health Services is launching a new electronic health records system that will replace eTang, called MyUCBerkeleyHealth or MyChart.

    • Limited functionality will remain in eTang for the Fall 2025 semester for SHIP Waiver Appeals and Reversals and our Mandatory TB & Immunization Requirements Program.
  • If you have upcoming appointments already booked in eTang after July 14, they will be moved to our new MyChart system.
