you should and could use ReadySet for your pre-employment health assessment it is built for that;. ReadySet should not hold any personal medical records (defined as any medical care that is not related to a work-related injury/illness or affects the employees ability to complete the tasks of their job. ; that should all be in EPIC. ReadySet should be used to manage all your work-related injuries. All the case management and OSHA logs can be managed in ReadySet.

We only have the employer based instance of ReadySet so our providers use it to document all of our care of work-related health care. Its not great but it works and then feeds all the WC case management and OSHA log stuff; Using their IIE is designed for that purpose. I think that you are not fully using the ReadySet capabilities and you need to talk with your "customer success manager" at Cority to better understand the product that you have. Our own experience working with Cority to maximize what ReadySet can do for us has been very unpleasant but it sounds like you really could get alot more very positive attributes out of the product that you have. You need to get your attorneys to look more carefully at all the firewalls that are built between ReadySet and personal medical records that are held in EPIC. One of ReadySets selling point, like the other occ health EMRS (like OHM) is their ability to keep personal medical records away from occupational health records. We in fact do NOT go into our hospitals emr system (we use Cerner) without written authorization from employees to do so. We have an authorization at the time of pre-placement exam that our attorneys "wrote" to give us maximum flexibility and to protect employees medical records.

I am told that Cority has a product that is much better for "caring for work-related injuries from a provider perspective and a billing perspective but we don't bill our employer for any of the care we provide to our employees so we haven't

I know that IT will tell you what they told you; assuming you use ReadySet for managing your pre-placement exams, your work-related injuries; WC case management, and OSHA stuff; plus have portals for supervisors and employees and HR and safety I have never seen a system that does what we need in an onsite occupational health clinic to be able to do. Also, ReadySet has the ability to accept feeds from your laboratory and send information to your WC insurance carrier. I cannot speak to EPIC's stand alone product but we have just done what we think is an exhaustive look at the market and other than stand alone occ health EMR's no one meets the needs (the HR companies will tell you that their software that your HR group may be using will do it; This Fall we sat through hours and hours of demo's and I can assure you they don't!!)

Subject: [MCOH-EH] Epic to replace Occupational Health software?
To: MCOH-EH <mcoh-eh@mylist.net>
Cc: Angeli Mancuso <a1mancus@sbch.org>

If any of you use Epic for employee/occupational health, do you also have a secondary software or can Epic “do it all?”

We have a new CIO who is claiming we can build everything in Epic and pull in data from our HRIS and payroll systems to cover everything our current EH/OH software accomplishes.

Current state:

Employee Health uses ReadySet for their EH/OH software
Pre-employment physicals are completed at 1 of 2 places:

Urgent Care’s owned by our organization: to maintain compliance of EH records being separate from personal medical records, the documentation is completed on paper and our EH team manually uploads into ReadySet.
3^rd party occupational health clinic (unaffiliated with our organization) who documents all aspects of the visit in OHM; our EH team has access to log in and download results from a portal to manually upload into ReadySet

I’m struggling to see how an Epic build can cover:

OSHA logs (this is maintained in our EH/OH software)
Workers Comp case management (exploring if our TPA can provide us with something instead)
Risk stratification for annual health maintenance (our HRIS holds the info of what risk categories each job title falls into and feeds our current EH/OH software)

I’d love to hear how others have implemented Epic at their organizations and if you were able to get rid of all other ancillary software.

For context: we are a health system with multiple locations in 3 counties in California.

Kindly,
Angeli
