A report released Tuesday from the KLAS research organization found that Epic's 2021 net growth in electronic health record market share exceeded that of all other vendors, followed by Meditech and Cerner.
Epic also held the largest share of acute care hospitals, at 32.9%, with Cerner at 24.4% and Meditech at 16.7%. CPSI followed with 8.7%. Allscripts had 4.3%, and Medhost made up 3.1%.
"EMR purchasing continued to be high in 2021, despite hospitals and health systems grappling with inflation, lingering complications from COVID-19, overburdened clinicians, and a historic nurse shortage," said researchers.
ON THE RECORD
For this report, explained KLAS, "The data comes from multiple sources, including publicly available information and the thousands of conversations KLAS has with provider organizations each year.
"KLAS also gives vendors the opportunity to report their annual acute care hospital EMR wins, which KLAS then validates with provider organizations," researchers added. "While KLAS believes the data in this report is directionally correct, we acknowledge that some variation may result from lack of vendor participation."
