Case Study: a local Florida hospital achieves more efficient Epic ancillary services with The Planet Group

local florida hospital places 12 Epic staff with The Planet Group over 3 years

The Planet Group worked with a local Florida hospital that was undergoing significant growth and needed to implement Epic EHR modules to support its expanding ambulatory specialties and inpatient facilities. The hospital's challenge was to successfully complete a full-life cycle implementation, integration, and training for these new systems.

The solution involved The Planet Group providing staff augmentation, initially placing 12 permanent employees over three years and later supplying a contractor for a specific Ancillary Service Provider project. This work included testing, building orders, mapping payors, and managing data within Epic. As a result, the hospital became more efficient, improved the patient experience, and subsequently asked The Planet Group to support further Epic implementations as they continue to grow.
