EPIC

 Clinical data is organized in a single, integrated record for each patient – across inpatient, post-acute, GP/ambulatory, community, and home settings – giving providers a comprehensive, up-to-date record.

Epic's applications operate together without the need for interfaces. This integration around one record greatly improves patient safety.
