QuadMed Secures Top-Tier Epic Ranking for Primary Care Integration

The recognition stems from a deliberate effort to move beyond fragmented systems, consolidating occupational health, primary care, and claims data into a single, longitudinal patient record. While primary care in the United States often suffers from chronic underinvestment and poor electronic health record usability, QuadMed’s model utilizes Epic’s full suite to ensure clinical data flows seamlessly through Care Everywhere and the Payer Platform.

CEO Kathryn Quadracci Flores emphasized that the ranking reflects a commitment to providing clinicians with high-level digital tools typically reserved for massive health systems. By integrating these capabilities, QuadMed aims to lower costs and improve health outcomes for employees. Alex Dressler, director of the Gold Stars program, noted that the high score requires sustained cooperation between IT, clinical staff, and operations to ensure that sophisticated technology translates into meaningful daily practice rather than just theoretical capability.
