Epic’s EHR system will go live on May 6, according to an April 22 press release. 

“Epic is the gold standard in electronic medical records designed to transform how we collect, store, and manage clinical information; improve patient safety; and enhance communication between healthcare providers,” said Suzanne Cooner, CEO of Audubon County Memorial Hospital. 

The hospital said the Epic EHR system will provide patients with access to their medical records, including lab tests, medical imaging, prescriptions, vaccinations and provider referrals, in one location, improving patient care and outcomes.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
