In my online medical history (mypennmedicine.org), it says "resolved chickenpox" under medical history. i've never had chickenpox. is this an error?

Not likely: You may have been tested at some time for antibodies for the varicella-zoster virus. If positive you have had varicella (chicken pox) at some time in the past.

Maybe: If you believe there is any errors in your medical records the HIPPA law states you can request that they be amended/corrected.
