Grand Marais, Minn.-based North Shore Health is examining whether to swap EHR vendors, WTIP reported.

The one-hospital system uses Meditech but is evaluating a switch to Epic through a Community Connect partnership with a larger system, according to the March 31 story.

“I think North Shore Health has two options,” CEO Kimber Wraalstad told the news outlet. “One will be either Meditech, because it’s what we already have, and we’ll just upgrade with what they have, or it’ll be Epic, because there are a lot of places in Minnesota that have Epic.”

That includes local community health center Sawtooth Mountain Clinic, which adopted Epic in 2025.
