Epic, one of the most widely used Electronic Health Records (EHR) systems in the U.S., allows an integrated experience for both clinicians and patients. More than 300 million patients have a current electronic record in Epic, with more hospitals and health systems continuing to transition to the platform each year.
Epic’s cloud-based software system focuses on improving patient engagement and facilitating better remote care operations. Its easy-to-use interface, various modules, and reliable data and record management capabilities enhance patient and physician communication and improve an organization’s efficiency.
Headquartered in Verona, Wisconsin, Epic was founded in a basement in 1979 by current CEO Judy Faulkner. It was named after an “epic” — which by definition is a glorious recounting of a nation’s events. Like these famous tales, Epic’s electronic health records tell the story of a patient’s healthcare journey over time.
