Philips’ new collaboration with Epic marks a strategic advancement in cardiac care by integrating Philips’ comprehensive suite of ambulatory cardiac monitoring and diagnostics services with Epic’s Aura specialty diagnostics platform. This partnership will deliver an unprecedented level of interoperability between Philips’ remote monitoring technologies and the widely used Epic electronic health record (EHR) system. By enabling direct access to ordering and reviewing ECG results within Epic, healthcare providers can now bypass manual data entry and streamline their diagnostic workflows—enhancing clinical efficiency and accelerating time-to-diagnosis for cardiac patients.

The collaboration addresses critical pain points in cardiac care delivery, including administrative burden, fragmented data systems, and delays in diagnostic workflows. Through automation of key tasks such as patient activation, provider notifications, and charting, the integration helps reduce staff workload and allows cardiac teams to spend more time with patients. Additionally, embedding Philips’ cardiac monitoring data directly into the patient’s longitudinal health record empowers clinicians with real-time insights, enabling more accurate and timely clinical decisions without switching platforms or duplicating efforts.

Looking ahead, the Philips-Epic collaboration sets a strong foundation for the future of connected, patient-centered cardiac care. As ambulatory monitoring becomes increasingly essential in managing heart health proactively, this integration will support scalable, data-driven care across a variety of settings. With Philips’ robust remote monitoring tools and Epic’s deep reach in healthcare IT, the partnership is poised to advance population health strategies, reduce diagnostic delays, and improve outcomes for cardiac patients around the world.
