Auditing Epic Care Link - risks and controls that should be evaluated

Session Synopsis

Epic Care Link is a secure, web-based application for connecting private and referring physicians, skilled nursing and long-term care facilities and their staff to your organization's electronic medical record. The tool provides read-only access to your patients’ health record. This includes hospitalizations, specialist’s referrals and other real time clinical data for physicians and staff without full Epic access. Ensuring controls are in place for both Epic Care Link and Epic Hyperdrive will ensure patients that their information is secure and protected and in line with HIPAA privacy standards. This presentation will discuss one organization's roll out of Epic Care Link and the challenges encountered during the launch of Epic and Epic Care Link throughout the organization.
