Testing integration in Sandbox

To test integrations with NGEMR in a sandbox, two main environments are available, Epic Sandbox and HealthX Innovation Sandbox.

Epic has multiple modules that may fulfill the business requirement. Integration to NGEMR will be an option if the business requirements/workflow cannot be met by Epic’s out-of-the box capability. User workflow and capability of the external systems will be the required input to assess the right integration option. Below is a high-level illustration of external systems integration project with NGEMR. ​
