The two selected EHR software solutions include Epic and Cerner. Epic is a comprehensive and integrated electronic health record system (EHR) characterized by a wide range of features including clinical documentation, patient scheduling, and medical billing. This system is commonly used by a variety of healthcare institutions including clinics, private practitioners, and hospitals (Ellingsen & Hertzum, 2020).
