The Best Accounting Integration for Epic Systems EHR
Epic Systems is a healthcare software developer that serves medical facilities, care centers, and individual patients around the world. Over 250 million patient records are stored on Epic Systems solutions such as Haiku, Canto, and MyChart. These Electronic Health Record (EHR) solutions make patient information accessible to multiple healthcare providers while maintaining data security. However, since EHRs prioritize patient care, other features like accounting are limited.
Enter Sage Intacct, a best-in-class accounting solution with the security, accessibility, and functionality that healthcare requires. If you’re on the lookout for accounting software to supplement your Epic Systems software, Sage Intacct is worth considering.
Why Sage Intacct
Epic Systems software includes some revenue cycle features, but the primary focus is on communicating patient data to various providers. Practices in need of more robust financial management capabilities turn to best-in-class solutions like Sage Intacct that improve data accessibility, ensure compliance, and integrate seamlessly with most software environments.
Best-In-Class Cloud Accounting
If your organization already uses an EHR to handle patient data, you shouldn’t have to subscribe to a second operational system just to get an accounting module. Sage Intacct is an accounting-specific solution that has gained popularity in the healthcare industry by filling in gaps left by EHRs. With automated consolidated reporting and inter-company transactions (for multiple locations or practices), purchasing workflows (to help manage costs and reduce spending), and payables workflows (to manage vendors and approvals), Sage Intacct works alongside your EHR system to maintain the accessibility of patient data and financial information.
Sage Intacct is flexible enough that you can customize dashboards and reports to fit your needs. It’s also hands-off, which limits the IT and hardware support you’ll need to keep it up and running. That means you can put more time towards value-adding activities and caring for patients.
HIPAA Compliance
Compliance is an essential part of the healthcare industry, from HIPAA for patient interactions to GAAP for finance and closing the books. EHR solutions follow HIPAA guidelines, but they lack the accounting industry endorsements boasted by Sage Intacct.
Companies that use Epic software will want to take advantage of equally compliant solutions when expanding the software environment. One of the greatest benefits to Sage Intacct is its GAAP compliance. As the first and only accounting software endorsed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), Sage Intacct ensures that your data and reports are always audit-ready. Add in the fact that Sage Intacct is HIPAA-compliant and peer reviewed by the Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA), and you have reliable software that will save you time, money, and stress.
Sage Intacct offers the depth of accounting functionality that growing medical practices and other healthcare organizations require, and its cloud accessibility and dedicated compliance to healthcare and accounting best practices create the perfect best-in-class addition to Epic Systems software.
Integration Options
Sage Intacct’s open API allows integration partners to build integrations between it and software from other developers, including Epic Systems, easily. Of course, users could also use simple import and export templates to manually move data between the two solutions. Your implementation partner can help you determine which option is best.
