## The Problem

Incoming Urology referrals sit in fax queues and athenahealth work lists, and outgoing referrals die without loop closure — both cost the practice revenue and clinical quality.

## What We Build in Epic

AI triages incoming referrals by acuity, schedules them into open slots in athenahealth, and chases outgoing referral loop closure with consulting providers — no referral gets lost. Purpose-built for teams running Epic — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## Epic Integration Approach

1. **Audit your Epic configuration.** We map the specific Epic objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your urology practice.
2. **Build on the Epic API or agent.** Integration happens inside Epic — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Epic with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
