    Lengthy manual impact analysis: The client is a chain of hospitals that uses Epic system for recording its patient health information (also known as Electronic Medical Records or EMR). Every quarter Epic upgrades the application. Whenever this happens the client’s IT team also has to upgrade their Epic version. Only then they can stay Epic compliant and leverage its full functionality. Moreover, since it is a large organization, the client has a lot of custom downstream systems and reports which take data from Epic. So earlier, to upgrade they either had to take a high risk of downstream impact or delay the upgrade to do manual impact analysis.
