Unify Patient Care & Engagement: HubSpot Epic Integration

Break down data silos between your marketing, sales, service (HubSpot) and clinical records (Epic EHR) for a holistic Patient 360 view, powered by intelligent automation and HIPAA compliance.

The Challenge

The Disconnected Healthcare Experience: Why Silos Hurt Patient Care

In today's complex healthcare landscape, disconnected systems like HubSpot CRM and Epic EHR create significant challenges. Patient data remains fragmented, leading to inefficient operations, missed engagement opportunities, and potential compliance risks.

  • Fragmented Patient Data: Critical information about patients' marketing interactions, service requests, and clinical history resides in separate systems, making a unified 'Patient 360' view impossible.
  • Inefficient Workflows: Manual data entry and reconciliation between HubSpot and Epic consume valuable administrative and clinical time, leading to delays in patient onboarding, appointment scheduling, and follow-up.
  • Missed Engagement Opportunities: Without real-time access to clinical data in HubSpot, personalized marketing campaigns and patient outreach are generic, reducing effectiveness and patient satisfaction.
  • Compliance & Security Risks: Manually transferring sensitive Protected Health Information (PHI) between systems increases the risk of human error, data breaches, and non-compliance with regulations like HIPAA and GDPR.
  • Poor Patient Experience: Inconsistent information and delayed responses due to siloed data lead to frustration for patients, impacting loyalty and care outcomes.

Technical Integration Overview: Bridging HubSpot & Epic

Our integration solution orchestrates a robust, secure, and compliant data flow between HubSpot and Epic, leveraging best-in-class API connectivity, event-driven architecture, and intelligent data transformation capabilities.

Data Flow Steps

Secure Connection Establishment: Utilize OAuth 2.0 for HubSpot Private Apps and Epic's Open Epic FHIR APIs, ensuring secure, token-based authentication with least privilege.

Event-Driven Triggers: Configure HubSpot webhooks (e.g., `contact.create`, `deal.propertyChange`) and Epic FHIR subscriptions/event listeners (e.g., `Patient.create`, `Appointment.update`) to initiate real-time data flows.

Data Extraction & Ingestion: The iPaaS listens for events or performs scheduled polls, extracting relevant data from the source system.

AI-Powered Data Transformation: Data is transformed, validated, and enriched within the iPaaS. AI assists in mapping complex FHIR structures to HubSpot properties, standardizing formats, and masking PHI where necessary.

Business Logic & Orchestration: Apply conditional rules, routing logic, and workflow steps (e.g., check for duplicates, escalate priority) within the iPaaS.

Data Loading & Synchronization: The transformed and validated data is then pushed to the target system via its respective APIs (e.g., HubSpot CRM API POST/PUT, Epic FHIR POST/PUT).

Error Handling & Monitoring: Robust mechanisms for logging errors, automatic retries with exponential backoff, dead-letter queues, and real-time monitoring dashboards ensure data integrity and operational continuity.

Data Touchpoints

HubSpot Contact <=> Epic Patient (demographics, identifiers, contact info)
HubSpot Company <=> Epic Organization (healthcare facilities, payers)
HubSpot Deal <=> Epic Claim / ServiceRequest (sales opportunities, billing, referrals)
HubSpot Ticket <=> Epic ServiceRequest / Encounter (patient inquiries, support cases)
HubSpot Product <=> Epic ServiceDefinition (healthcare services, product catalog)
HubSpot Marketing Event <=> Epic Appointment (event registrations, scheduled visits)
HubSpot Form Submission => Epic Patient / ServiceRequest (new lead/inquiry intake)

"HubSpot (Webhooks/API) <--> iPaaS (Connectors, Transformation, AI, Orchestration) <--> Epic (FHIR APIs/Events). Data flows are primarily event-driven, with scheduled syncs for bulk or less critical data. The iPaaS acts as the central intelligence layer, ensuring secure, compliant, and accurate data exchange."

Data Mapping

Core Entities & Intelligent Data Mapping

The integration focuses on synchronizing key entities between HubSpot and Epic, ensuring a consistent and comprehensive view of the patient. Our iPaaS provides intelligent mapping tools to bridge the semantic and structural differences between CRM and EHR data models.

HubSpot Contact / Epic Patient

The foundational entity for patient-centric care and engagement. Synchronizes demographic, contact, and lifecycle stage information.

HubSpot Fields

email firstname lastname phone lifecyclestage address hsobjectid consenttomarket

Epic Fields

id identifier (MRN, SSN) name gender birthDate address telecom (phone, email) extension (custom fields for marketing consent)

Mapping Notes

HubSpot's `hsobjectid` serves as a unique identifier in HubSpot. Epic's `identifier (MRN)` is the primary key. A cross-reference ID (managed by iPaaS) is crucial. `HubSpot email` maps to `Epic telecom (email)`. `HubSpot lifecyclestage` maps to a custom patient status in Epic or informs patient journey stages. PHI consent flags must be mapped and respected.

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST, GET, PUT, DELETE /crm/v3/objects/contacts Manage HubSpot Contact records, central for lead management and patient profiles.
POST, GET, PUT, DELETE /crm/v3/objects/companies Manage HubSpot Company records, linking to organizations and healthcare facilities in Epic.
POST, GET, PUT, DELETE /crm/v3/objects/deals Administer sales pipeline stages, track opportunities for healthcare services.
POST, GET, PUT, DELETE /crm/v3/objects/tickets Create and manage customer support tickets for patient inquiries.
POST, GET, PUT, DELETE /crm/v3/objects/products Synchronize healthcare service catalogs from Epic for use in quotes and marketing.
POST, GET, PUT, DELETE /webhooks/v1/{appId}/subscriptions Manage webhook subscriptions for event-driven integrations (e.g., on contact update, form submission).

Transformation Logic

  • Data Type Conversion: Automatically convert data types (e.g., string to date, number to enum) between HubSpot and Epic.
  • Conditional Mapping: Map fields only if certain conditions are met (e.g., only sync Epic patient email to HubSpot if marketing consent is true).
  • Data Aggregation/Splitting: Combine multiple Epic fields into one HubSpot property or split a HubSpot field into multiple Epic FHIR elements.
  • Lookup Tables: Use internal lookup tables to translate codes (e.g., Epic service codes to HubSpot product SKUs, Epic practitioner IDs to HubSpot owner IDs).
  • PHI Masking: Apply predefined rules to mask or tokenize sensitive patient identifiers when moving data to HubSpot, adhering to HIPAA guidelines.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Data Type Mismatch: HubSpot property expects a string, but Epic sends a number. iPaaS converts or flags an error.
  • Required Field Missing: Epic requires a patient's MRN, but it's absent from HubSpot. iPaaS rejects the record and alerts.
  • API Authentication Failure: HubSpot or Epic API token expires. iPaaS automatically refreshes tokens or alerts administrators.
  • Network Interruption: Temporary connectivity loss between iPaaS and either system. iPaaS retries with backoff.
  • Business Logic Violation: An integration rule (e.g., 'do not sync if consent is false') is violated. iPaaS blocks the sync and logs.
