Epic Installs at Warp Speed: Accelerating the Implementation Without Sacrificing Quality
HonorHealth: KLAS Arch Collaborative Learning Summit 2026
Healthcare organizations increasingly face compressed Epic and EHR implementation timelines driven by mergers, acquisitions, regulation, and transformation. Dr. Craig Norquist and Candice Larson, RN, shared a structured approach to “warp speed” implementations without compromising patient safety, clinician experience, or system performance. The session covered executive alignment, governance, disciplined program management, clinical informatics leadership, standardized builds, workflow optimization, and proactive change management. It also addressed resource constraints, training limitations, and burnout risks, with strategies centered on clinician engagement, targeted communication, efficient training, and robust support. Attendees learned key success factors for rapid Epic deployments, governance and staffing strategies, ways to mitigate compressed-timeline risks, and transferable practices for balancing speed, sustainability, quality, and adoption.
