So in 2010, we began the process of preparing for our transition to Epic.ĭuring the course of our implementation, we learned a lot from other Epic hospitals in the Northwest who either had already installed Epic, or were in process like us.įast-forward to 2015, and now just about all major Healthcare organizations in Washington State are on Epic. It didn’t take us long to figure out that our current systems would not make us successful in meeting Federal regulations and mandates, and didn’t provide a single medical record across all care areas. ![]() By 2008, we had lost practically all of our local clients to Epic, so I figured if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.Īt that time, there were no major Epic installations going on in the area, but I still was able to land a job implementing another EHR at one of the local hospitals. Beginning around 2004, we started losing major hospital clients, mostly to Epic. I was an interface analyst, implementing and supporting HL7 interfaces for the Centricity Enterprise electronic health record (EHR). From 1999 to 2008, I worked at the Seattle office of GE Healthcare, formally IDX Systems. I’d like to start with a little background on how I fit into the story. Today I’m excited to give you all a view of what the Healthcare IT landscape in Washington State looks like, particularly regarding the ubiquitous presence of Epic Systems installations. ![]()
