Prepare for an Epic Upgrade March 10

Read Time: 1 min

On March 10, Epic will be upgrading to the 2018 version.

Our top priority is making sure patient care remains uninterrupted. Throughout the process, Epic users will have access to training, upgrade previews, and support to prepare for the changes it will bring.
