Epic powers more U.S. health system beds than any other EHR. If you are building a SMART on FHIR app for Epic App Orchard, a clinical decision support tool that launches from Hyperspace, an ambient documentation feature that writes back to the patient chart, or a population-health pipeline fed by Epic Bulk Data, you need engineers who have shipped against Epic in production. Not engineers who have read the App Orchard developer documentation once and run a sandbox tutorial.
Taction Software’s Epic integration engineers have delivered 80+ Epic integrations across SMART on FHIR launch apps, Bulk Data pipelines, USCDI v3 compliance work, and direct API integrations. Engagements start at $8,000 per engineer per month with a 14-day onboarding window and a Business Associate Agreement signed before any PHI touches our systems.
Talk to an Epic Integration Architect
Our experts are ready to understand your business goals.
Epic is the most demanding integration target in U.S. healthcare. The reasons are practical and architectural:
Every Taction Epic engineer is screened on four criteria:
You get a dedicated engineer embedded in your team for a minimum 3-month engagement billed monthly at $8K.
By week six, that engineer is shipping production code against your Epic targets and either preparing the App Orchard submission or integrating directly with a partner Epic site.
Patient, Encounter, Observation, Condition, MedicationRequest, MedicationStatement, AllergyIntolerance, Immunization, Procedure, DiagnosticReport, DocumentReference, ServiceRequest, Appointment, Coverage, Claim
For background, read our work on embedding AI inside Epic via SMART on FHIR, SOAP notes write-back to Epic via FHIR, and selling an AI feature into Epic hospitals. The Epic EHR integration guide and the Epic EHR integration service page are also useful references.
$8,000 per engineer per month. Minimum 3-month commitment, month-to-month thereafter. Full-time, dedicated, embedded in your team. Includes BAA, project management, and Taction technical-architect oversight.
$24,000 to $60,000 per month for a pod of 3 to 6 engineers, including a lead Epic architect, for multi-workstream projects.
When the scope is defined — for example, a specific SMART on FHIR app build for App Orchard submission — our healthcare AI Discovery Sprint, MVP Sprint, or Pilot-Ready Sprint at $145K over 12 weeks productizes the engagement.
For a project-based estimate, use the healthcare AI cost calculator or the EHR integration calculator.
Every Taction Epic engagement starts with the same baseline.
30 minutes with a Taction Epic integration lead. We map your Epic surface (App Orchard, direct, Bulk Data), FHIR profile requirements, and team structure.
Legal paperwork in parallel with technical scoping.
We propose 2 to 3 candidates with Epic-surface-specific experience matched to your scope.
Selected engineer joins your standups, gets sandbox access, signs your individual confidentiality agreement, and starts the technical onboarding plan.
$8,000 per engineer per month for a dedicated Epic integration engineer with a minimum 3-month commitment. Pods and fixed-scope sprints are also available.
14 days from initial discovery call to engineer-on-team for standard engagements.
Yes. Our team has delivered 80+ Epic integrations including App Orchard published apps, direct partner-site integrations, and Bulk Data pipelines.
Yes. Every Taction Epic engineer is also a SMART on FHIR engineer. Provider launch, patient launch, and backend services flows are part of the screening criteria. For non-Epic SMART work, see our SMART on FHIR app development service page.
Yes. App Orchard security review readiness is baked into the engineering workflow from week one. We have shipped multiple apps through review.
Every Taction Epic developer is also a FHIR developer. The difference is depth of Epic-specific knowledge — App Orchard, Hyperspace, USCDI v3 nuances, Bulk Data quirks, Epic-specific scope handling. If your project is multi-EHR with Epic as one of several targets, a FHIR developer is the right starting point. If Epic is the primary integration target, an Epic specialist saves time.
Yes. Every engagement begins with a signed Business Associate Agreement. Engineers follow HIPAA Security Rule §164.308, §164.310, and §164.312 controls.
