Migrate from Epic Ehr to Augmedix.
2 documentation-derived translation patterns — what carries over and what to watch for. Cited to the Feature Parity Map; the audit tells you whether the move is worth it.
Augmedix Go and Epic both capture the patient-clinician conversation ambiently and draft a structured, sign-off-ready note. A practice already on Epic can retire the standalone Augmedix contract and move the same ambient workflow into Epic itself: turn on Epic's in-app ambient documentation — either Epic's native AI Charting ('Art') or the embedded partner ambient (Microsoft/Nuance DAX Copilot in Epic) — which records during the encounter and writes the draft straight into the Epic note, immediately available to orders, coding, and billing on the same chart. Clinicians record in Epic Haiku/Canto on mobile and review in Hyperdrive, replacing the Augmedix Go mobile/web app, so there is no separate Augmedix login and no paste-back of returned text. Keep Epic as the system of record; cut Augmedix.
- Warning: Epic's ambient is a licensed capability: native AI Charting/Art and especially DAX Copilot-in-Epic can carry their own per-clinician fee or add-on license — confirm it is provisioned and live for the org before cancelling Augmedix.
- Warning: Augmedix's Assist and Live tiers include human-in-the-loop scribe/QA support; Epic's native ambient is AI-draft-only, so a practice leaning on Augmedix's human review must accept clinician self-edit (or a separate review service) at cutover.
- Warning: Re-validate specialty note templates and any ED-specific Augmedix documentation against Epic's note types/SmartTools so structured capture does not regress for high-acuity encounters.
Augmedix surfaces suggested ICD-10 plus CPT/E&M/LOS/HCC codes off the documented encounter; Epic does the same natively. A practice on Epic can drop Augmedix's coding suggestions and rely on Epic's own revenue-cycle AI: Coding Assistance tees up diagnosis and procedure codes from the visit's clinical content, recommends Level of Service from data entered during the visit, and (under Epic's 'Penny' AI for the revenue cycle) is moving toward autonomous coding starting with ED and Radiology. Because Epic reads the same note it will bill against and writes codes straight onto that chart's claim in Resolute, the charge-capture step happens on the system of record with no export to a separate coding tool. Keep Epic; cut Augmedix's coding add-on.
- Warning: Epic's AI coding (Coding Assistance / Penny) is part of the Epic revenue-cycle license — confirm Resolute and the coding module are deployed and the AI coding feature is enabled before relying on it in place of Augmedix.
- Warning: Augmedix's Assist/Live tiers fold coding into human specialist support; Epic's assistance is AI suggestion plus your existing coders/CDI — verify coder staffing covers the volume Augmedix's humans previously absorbed.
- Warning: Run a parallel period: reconcile E&M level and HCC capture from Epic against the prior Augmedix output so reimbursement does not dip at the switch.
