Technical Integration: How 3dcart and Epic Connect

Our iPaaS solution facilitates robust, secure, and performant integration between 3dcart and Epic. We leverage the strengths of each platform's API capabilities and eventing models to create a seamless data flow.

Data Flow Steps

API/Webhook Listeners: iPaaS configures webhooks in 3dcart for events like new orders, customer updates, and inventory changes. For Epic, it utilizes FHIR subscriptions or Open Epic event listeners for patient updates, appointments, or service requests.

Data Ingestion & Transformation: Incoming data payloads (JSON from 3dcart, FHIR resources from Epic) are ingested. The iPaaS's visual mapping engine transforms these into a canonical data model, standardizing formats and vocabularies (e.g., mapping 3dcart product SKUs to Epic's LOINC/SNOMED codes for medical items).

Business Logic & Orchestration: Workflows are executed based on defined business rules. For example, a new 3dcart order triggers a series of actions: patient lookup in Epic, creation of an Epic ServiceRequest, inventory deduction, and then updates back to 3dcart.

Validation & Error Handling: Data is validated against predefined schemas and business rules. Robust error handling, including automated retries with exponential backoff and dead-letter queues, ensures data integrity and prevents loss.

API Calls & Updates: Transformed and validated data is then pushed to the target system via its respective API (3dcart REST API, Epic FHIR API), ensuring proper authentication and adherence to rate limits.

Monitoring & Auditing: All transactions are logged, monitored in real-time, and audited for compliance and performance, providing complete visibility into data flow.

Data Touchpoints

3dcart Orders <-> Epic ServiceRequests / Claims
3dcart Customers <-> Epic Patients
3dcart Products <-> Epic Supply Items / ServiceRequest Codes
3dcart Inventory <-> Epic Inventory (Supply Item)
3dcart Payments <-> Epic Claims (Financial Reconciliation)
3dcart Shipments <-> Epic Encounter (for delivery tracking if tied to an encounter)
