Epic

 
Overview

We make some of the most advanced software in the world and work with the most respected healthcare organizations in the world to help improve the quality of care for patients throughout the world. What we do here makes a difference at every step of the patient care process, from the time the initial appointment is scheduled until well after the patient has returned home.

We're a focused and driven company. Founded 30 years ago in the basement of an apartment building, we've grown to a company of over 5,100 intelligent, motivated, and principled people, working from our 800+acre campus outside Madison to make an impact on one of the largest and fastest-growing industries out there.

We hire bright people with a sense of urgency and a track record of getting things done. Our management structure's relatively flat, which means you get to make an impact on our company and our customers within months—or days—of beginning your career here.

As you consider the next (or first) step in your career, ask yourself if you want to work for a company focused on returns to shareholders and developing a non-essential product, or if you want to do something that makes a difference in the world.

What We Do

Improving healthcare is one of the biggest challenges of our time. For over 30 years, Epic has risen to this challenge by creating award-winning software that helps healthcare organizations provide better care and reduce costs. Our software is designed to support all the functions that orbit the patient. Our applications work in unison to dissolve the informational boundaries that create inefficient healthcare.

Sometimes referred to as the “Silent Giant”, Epic has established itself as the vendor of choice for large and complex healthcare organizations. We have set records for size and scope and were again named the #1 Overall Software Vendor for 2009 by KLAS. Epic continues to be at the forefront of real-time, patient record interoperability and is leading the revolution in giving patients access to their own electronic medical records.

We're searching for smart, passionate people who want to achieve great things. You'll be in a world-class learning and working environment where you can gain the skills you need to do something extraordinary. You will work hard, collaborate with the brightest minds, and make a difference in healthcare.

Why We Excel

Software Quality
Build software that works. That's Rule #1 around here. Building an integrated suite of products that seamlessly work together is just as complicated as it sounds, and we embrace that challenge. We achieve high-quality software that works on a grand scale (tens of thousands of users and millions of patients all on one database) by being a focused and process-driven organization. We have to get it right—the stakes are too high in our industry to do it any other way. At the same time, we're often in uncharted territory. We rely on constant innovation and must consistently push the limits to be on the leading edge of software design.

And according to independent industry ratings, we do a good job of it. Out of a group of over 200 healthcare software products ranked by customers, we have 7 of the top 20 products on the market (and that's out of a total of 7 rated Epic products). Here are some of our awards.

Customer Partnerships

We provide direct support to every one of our customers. There's no call center, no anonymous message on the other end of the line, no 'next available representative'—instead, there's a friendly voice ready to route calls directly to you, the designated Epic person responsible for supporting that application, for that particular customer. You're the person a customer talks to every time they have a question about a given piece of software, and they're the people you work with to help that organization grow in its use of Epic. We develop long-term partnerships with our customers, and we rely on every person at Epic to take ownership for ensuring our customers' success. Our employees work daily with our customers' IT departments, clinicians, managers, and executives to ensure their success.

Products

We develop all of our products in-house. Our applications have been integrated from the beginning, providing a single patient record for impatient and ambulatory care. Epic’s integrated suite of healthcare software is centered on a hierarchical MUMPS-based electronic medical record.

Epic provides the information backbone for many of the largest, most progressive healthcare organizations in the country, linking thousands of concurrent users with a shared source of relevant clinical, access, and financial information. Epic fulfills the promise of an integrated enterprise with optimized workflows, sub-second response times, and responsive customer service.

The KLAS survey of CIO’s and IT executives from more than 3,000 healthcare facilities has consistently ranked Epic applications highly. For the most recent survey results, please visit http://www.epicsystems.com/Company/KLAS.php.

EpicCare© replaces the traditional paper chart, freeing users from incomplete or missing information and ensuring care across different providers for treatment. EpicCare© Inpatient spans all hospital departments and specialties. It connects each member of the care team to a single record, ensuring that treatment decisions are based on the most up-to-date information and that care is well coordinated when patients are treated by multiple providers. MyChart gives patients access to information in their medical records along with convenient self-service options. It helps meet growing public demand for detailed health information.
