Integration Overview
Standards-based, five programs.
FHIR R4 integration between Epic and CCN Health unlocks every Medicare remote care program for health systems and academic medical centers.
Bidirectional Sync
Data flows both ways.
This isn't a one-way data dump. Epic shares clinical context with CCN Health to inform monitoring protocols, and CCN Health writes vitals, alerts, and billing documentation back — so caregivers never leave the EHR.

Programs Powered
Five programs, enterprise scale.
The Epic integration powers every Medicare-reimbursable remote care program — with the reliability and security expected by enterprise health systems.
Remote Patient Monitoring

98975, 98976, 98977, 98980, 98981
Across every supported environment
What This Enables
Enterprise-grade clinical workflows.
The Epic integration leverages FHIR R4 standards for robust, secure, and scalable data exchange between enterprise health systems and CCN Health.
FHIR Observation Posting
Device readings post to Epic as FHIR Observation resources — appearing in patient charts, Flowsheets, and the MyChart patient portal.
Real-Time Patient Context
Epic sends FHIR resources for conditions, medications, and care plans to CCN Health so monitoring protocols reflect the full clinical picture.
Compliant Billing Documentation
CPT-coded time logs and transmission records auto-generate — feeding into Epic's revenue cycle and satisfying CMS documentation requirements.
Workflow-Integrated Alerts
Vital sign threshold breaches generate Flag resources in Epic — surfacing in In Basket messages and BestPractice Alerts for clinical staff.
Unified Patient Record
RPM data, CCM notes, and billing records all accessible within Epic alongside the patient's full clinical history and treatment plans.
System-Wide Visibility
Health system administrators see aggregated program performance across all departments and locations — enrollment, compliance, and revenue metrics.
Connected Devices
Every reading, posted via FHIR.
Patients take a measurement. The device transmits to CCN Health. CCN Health posts a FHIR Observation to their Epic chart. Clinicians see it alongside all other clinical data.
| Device | Connectivity | Data Synced to Epic |
|---|---|---|
| Blood Pressure Cuff | Cellular-connected | Systolic, diastolic, pulse, irregular heartbeat flag |
| Weight Scale | Cellular-connected | Weight, BMI, trend alerts for fluid retention |
| Pulse Oximeter | Cellular-connected | SpO2, pulse rate, perfusion index |
| Blood Glucose Meter | Cellular-connected | Glucose level, pre/post meal tagging |
| Continuous Glucose Monitor | Bluetooth/cloud | 288 readings/day, trend arrows, time-in-range |
| Thermometer | Cellular-connected | Temperature, fever detection alerts |
| Sensorless Monitor | UWB radar | Heart rate, respiratory rate, sleep, presence |
| Sleep Tracker | Under-mattress | Sleep duration, efficiency, restlessness |
Clinical Specialties
Specialty-specific protocols.
CCN Health's monitoring protocols are tuned per specialty — the Epic FHIR integration ensures the right data reaches the right clinicians at enterprise scale.
Cardiology
Blood pressure, heart rate, weight management for CHF and hypertension
Endocrinology
