What is our new electronic medical record (EMR) system called?
The name of the electronic medical record (EMR) system we will be using is EpicCare. The vendor that developed the system is Wisconsin-based Epic. This dynamic health-information technology will strengthen our system’s processes related to patient care and clinical administration. When are we switching to Epic? The St. Francis Family Medicine Residency Program was the first to pilot Epic programs. Many St. Francis Medical Group and St. Margaret Mercy Medical Associates physician practices have transitioned to Epic programs in the outpatient setting. St. Francis Health campuses will move to Epic on Feb. 26, 2011.
