Kentico & Epic Integration: The Technical Blueprint

Our integration solution provides a robust and secure framework for connecting Kentico and Epic, leveraging an API-first, event-driven architecture orchestrated by an advanced iPaaS. This ensures real-time data flow, high scalability, and strict adherence to healthcare compliance standards.

Data Flow Steps

API Connectivity & Authentication: Establish secure connections using OAuth 2.0 for Epic's FHIR APIs and Kentico's API keys/OAuth for its REST APIs. Credentials are securely managed in the iPaaS vault.

Event-Driven Triggers: Configure Kentico webhooks (e.g., new 'Order', 'Customer' update, 'ContentItem' published) and Epic's FHIR-based eventing (e.g., new 'Patient', 'Appointment' update) to initiate integration workflows in real-time.

Data Ingestion & Extraction: iPaaS connectors subscribe to events or poll endpoints (for less time-sensitive data) to extract relevant entities from both systems.

Canonical Data Model & Transformation: Ingested data is mapped to a canonical data model within the iPaaS. Visual data mapping tools and AI-assisted transformations harmonize disparate schemas, data types, and terminologies (e.g., LOINC codes for observations).

Business Logic & Orchestration: Implement custom business rules, conditional logic, and multi-step workflows (e.g., if Kentico order is for a medical device, check Epic patient record, then route to specific fulfillment system).

Data Validation & Error Handling: Data is validated against predefined rules and schemas. Robust error handling, retry mechanisms with exponential backoff, and dead-letter queues ensure data integrity and prevent loss.

Data Delivery & Synchronization: Transformed and validated data is pushed to the target system's APIs (e.g., Kentico 'Customer' to Epic 'Patient', Epic 'Observation' to Kentico for display).

Monitoring, Logging & Auditing: All integration activities are logged, monitored, and audited within the iPaaS for performance, security, and compliance reporting.

Data Touchpoints

Kentico 'Order' <-> Epic 'ServiceRequest' / 'Claim'
Kentico 'Customer' <-> Epic 'Patient'

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for Kentico-Epic Integration

Seamless data flow relies on precise mapping and transformation of core entities between Kentico and Epic. Our iPaaS provides visual tools and AI assistance to harmonize these critical data points, ensuring accuracy and consistency.

Customer / Patient

Represents an individual. In Kentico, a 'Customer' is a buyer or registered user; in Epic, a 'Patient' is an individual receiving healthcare. Unifying these is central to a 360-degree view.

Kentico Fields

[field, CustomerID],[type, GUID],[description, Unique identifier for Kentico customer.] [field, FirstName],[type, string],[description, Customer's first name.] [field, LastName],[type, string],[description, Customer's last name.] [field, Email],[type, string],[description, Customer's primary email address.] [field, Phone],[type, string],[description, Customer's phone number.] [field, BillingAddressID],[type, GUID],[description, Reference to billing address.] [field, RegistrationDate],[type, datetime],[description, Date customer registered.] [field, CustomerGUID],[type, GUID],[description, Global unique identifier for customer.]

Epic Fields

[field, id],[type, string],[description, FHIR resource ID for Patient.] [field, identifier (MRN, SSN)],[type, array of Identifier],[description, Medical Record Number, Social Security Number, etc.] [field, name (given, family)],[type, array of HumanName],[description, Patient's official name.] [field, gender],[type, code],[description, Patient's gender.] [field, birthDate],[type, date],[description, Patient's date of birth.] [field, address],[type, array of Address],[description, Patient's physical address.] [field, telecom (phone, email)],[type, array of ContactPoint],[description, Patient's contact information.]

Mapping Notes

Requires robust deduplication logic based on identifiers (email, phone, name+DOB). Kentico's 'CustomerGUID' can be stored as an extension in Epic's 'Patient' FHIR resource for direct linking. PHI masking is critical for non-clinical data exposure.

Real-World Applications

Integration Use Cases

Explore how the integration behaves in real business scenarios, with clearly defined steps, outcomes, and execution patterns.

Medical Supply & Device eCommerce Integration

Patients order medical supplies, home health devices, or wellness products from a Kentico eCommerce site. The integration ensures these orders are securely and accurately transferred to Epic for patient record association, billing (Claim), and then to a WMS or supply chain system for fulfillment. Inventory updates from the supply chain flow back to Kentico.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 Patient places order for a blood pressure monitor on Kentico.
  2. 1 Kentico 'Order' and 'Customer' details are captured.
  3. 2 iPaaS triggers on new Kentico 'Order', identifies the 'Customer' and matches/creates a 'Patient' in Epic.
  4. 3 Order details are transformed into an Epic 'ServiceRequest' (e.g., for a device dispensing) or 'Claim' for billing.
  5. 4 Inventory for the blood pressure monitor is updated in Kentico from the WMS/ERP via iPaaS, triggered by Epic or the WMS.
  6. 5 Shipping and fulfillment updates from the WMS are sent to Kentico for patient notification.

Business Outcome

Seamless patient experience for medical purchases, accurate inventory management, streamlined billing, and compliant patient record updates.
