Epic Training is required for all Stanford Hospital and Clinics physicians and medical personnel who need access to Hospital Medical Records.

To complete the Stanford Hospital and Clinics’ Medical Staff application process, you must complete training for the Epic Clinical Information System. Training is completed online. The specific courses that you are required to complete are dependent on your specialty, sub-specialty and scope of clinical practice.

LPCH applicants: You may not require Epic training as LPCH is on a different electronic medical record system. If your specialty, sub-specialty and scope of clinical practice indicate that you may require access to Epic, you will have training assigned.

Key Points
  • Epic Training is required for all SHC physicians and medical staff who need access to hospital medical records.
  • Epic Training may be required of LPCH physicians and medical staff whose specialty, sub-specialty and scope of clinical practice indicate that access to Epic may be needed.
