Hospitals and health systems implementing EPIC in 2024

Epic Systems Corporation provides a range of software solutions designed to help hospitals and health systems provide better patient care, improve communication, streamline workflows, and more.

Founded in 1979, Epic is one of the top vendors for inpatient and ambulatory electronic health record systems in the country. The company offers a suite of in-house developed healthcare software for a variety of tasks ranging from clinical record-keeping to registration, scheduling, billing, and more.

Although there are many proven electronic health record (EHR) systems available, Epic is the leading choice among providers. The ease with which Epic’s software integrates within a health system’s existing infrastructure and communicates with other programs—a factor known as interoperability—likely drives some of its appeal.

Using data from Definitive Healthcare’s HospitalView product, we compiled a list of the hospitals and health systems who integrated Epic into their systems in 2024.
