Monitoring for Epic Application Performance

Epic application performance monitoring needs to take into account the large sizes of databases that the application covers. Because Epic applications cover the medical and healthcare industry, performance testing solutions need to include areas such as Practice Management, Hospital Billing, Ambulatory and Inpatient EMR, etc. Epic also covers departments and ancillaries, and takes care of interoperability matters and the need for connecting affiliates.

As agencies involved in healthcare, including hospitals, medical groups and integrated healthcare organizations move towards adopting Epic applications, the need for adequate testing solutions is only going to increase. Further, because of the nature of industry that Epic applications serve, their effective performance is fundamental to the agencies using them. Services such as emergency rooms cannot afford to have applications that are not up and running when needed.

Epic consists of large databases that cover clinical as well as revenue functions for healthcare organizations. Epic performance needs to take into account not only healthcare concerns such as patient details, but also aspects such as system health, compliance with SLA, real user experience, etc. Performance monitoring for Epic applications also takes into account the environments.

Epic applications improve the productivity of physicians by helping to simplify the practice, including aspects of patient engagement. Eventually, effective Epic application performance results in better care delivery. The applications within this system take care of more than 100 specialties, all designed to make healthcare simpler with the use of pre-built content on reports, documents, order sets, etc. This makes for faster and effective care-giving, including for chronic care cases. For healthcare providers, the performance of their Epic applications must never flag, particularly since the system supports some critical areas within medical care, resulting in measurable increase in quality of care provided.

Comprehensive Epiccare Performance Monitoring For Ensuring Efficiency Of The Application

Regular performance monitoring for EpicCare systems is a necessity if you want the application to work efficiently, without missing out on making an entry. The EpicCare application helps physician's document outpatient records, such as visit details, billing information, and any other notifications.

EpicCare performance monitoring takes up significance because it can help medical care providers to move towards more rapid and efficient management. Systems for ensuring peak performance by Epic take into account the installation, the configuration, and the specific requirements of the medical center it is installed for.

The application system provides a database that serves as a storehouse of clinical and medical data for research purposes or for the creating reports. EpicCare systems need to be monitored for several elements of performance:

> Access to clinical records
> Submission of requests for technical help
> Remote accessibility

Why does Epic performance need monitoring?

Because of its applications in the medical industry, performance monitoring of the Epic system becomes mandatory. The EpicCare system helps make physicians' time more productive by simplifying the different elements of clinical care. This is especially significant in the case of providing ambulatory care where medical care is delivered on an outpatient basis. Elements of care can include advanced medical techniques and procedures, such as minor surgeries, non-invasive biopsies, or diagnostics like X-rays and blood tests.

Performance monitoring for Epic systems will need to take into account the diversity involved in medical and clinical care and documentation. This can include:

> Specialties
> Affiliates in medicine
> Ancillary services for diagnostics, therapy, nursing care, etc.
> Interoperability

In the case of providing ambulatory care alone, the amount of variables can be staggering. A patient may need several diagnostics to be performed in a given span of time, with supporting communication being carried out to ensure that the physicians and nurses involved are provided with timely updates.
