Infrastructure Support for Epic Community Connect Hosts

Extending Epic through Community Connect allows health systems to strengthen network alignment, interoperability, and care continuity—but only if infrastructure can scale alongside growth. For host organizations, that means standardizing devices, networks, and support models across multiple affiliates without overwhelming internal IT teams.

HCTec partners with Epic Community Connect hosts as an extension of their infrastructure teams, helping design, deploy, and scale programs with confidence. From device and hardware standardization to network readiness and technical coordination, we support host organizations in expanding Epic access while protecting core operations, timelines, and service quality.

Infrastructure Support for Epic Community Connect Affiliates

Joining Epic Community Connect requires far more than access credentials—it demands infrastructure readiness. Many community hospitals, ambulatory clinics, and specialty practices lack the internal resources or Epic experience to prepare devices, networks, and teams for a successful electronic health record (EHR) system implementation.

HCTec helps affiliates become Epic-ready without the IT headaches. Our teams support device provisioning, hardware and workstation standardization, network configuration, and coordination with host organizations.

With Epic-certified expertise and healthcare-focused processes, we ensure affiliates are prepared, supported, and confident before, during, and after Community Connect implementation.

Manager of IT, US-based Health System

HCTec was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, and that made all the difference. By and large, the at-the-elbow support people do the job well.

Manager of IT, US-based Health System

Something meaningful for us is that HCTec creates daily benchmark reports for at-the-elbow support people and scores each person from one to five. That helps us know how people are doing every day in specific areas. I can’t physically be everywhere, so the reports provide me with a good understanding of how things are going. The firm is then able to escalate ways we can improve problem areas.

Manager of IT, Regional Health System

We are super comfortable with HCTec. We have worked with them multiple times for large-scale implementations. They get us. They understand our needs and our expectations, and we always have a pleasant experience working with them.
