11 May Verona’s Epic Systems flips the switch on a massive electronic records switch for Mayo Clinic
It’s been a big week for Epic Systems Corp. — even by the huge Verona company’s own standards.
Last weekend, Epic’s electronic health system software for Mayo Clinic’s Rochester, Minnesota, headquarters went live, completing a massive overhaul of nearly all of Mayo’s computerized systems, from patient registration and medical records to revenue and billing.
It is believed to be one of the biggest Epic implementations, with an estimated price of $1.5 billion over 10 years — though that figure covers more than just the Epic software.
As many as 1,000 Epic employees were in Rochester the week before the switch and will stick around for a few weeks, said Dr. Steve Peters, Mayo Clinic’s co-chairman of the project.
