Welcome to my channel! I will continue posting videos on more Epic analyst content and more! In this video I talk about some of the things I do on my day to day while working as an Epic analyst. Please let me know if you are interested in becoming an Epic analyst, I can give you some tips. Only a a year ago I was working as a front desk scheduler for a medical facility wanting to become Epic certified. I did not know anyone that I could reach out to to ask for tips and when I tried finding videos on RU-vid I noticed that no one posting about this career.
I love this career and would 100% recommend it to those who want to impact patient's lives using technology.
Please like and subscribe, it will help me reach more people.

It's crazy how things happen. I said I wanted to get in into IT but had no clue how to start. I've heard about Epic but the company I used to work for didnt use it. The company i worked for just asked me to come back (wfh role) AND they are switching to EPIC...then i see in your welcome message that you were working as a front desk scheduler (so was I when i started there!!)...If this isn't meant to be idk what is. LOL. I am going to put in my time - a year - and then start looking to get certified. Thanks so much for this video. I would definitely appreciate some tips - like how to go about seeking sponsorship from my employer.

I love that I found this. I'm a Radiant and Epic HIM analyst. I support our HIM, imaging departments, Endoscopy, and Outpatient Interventional Pain mgmt (supported by Radiant). I'm also a OpTime backup too!

@ourepicjourney Месяц назад

That’s awesome! I wasn’t aware that you could support that many applications at once. Which health system do you work for?

@goodvibesxox 11 месяцев назад

hi! i hope this isnt weird to ask- are you able to get a wfh job right away or do you need to work in person first? also how did you get your experience to get the job:) i also thought maybe epic analyst would be more technical as i thought it was IT related :)

@ourepicjourney 10 месяцев назад

Hi Kasey, Not weird at all. I don’t think so, some companies where doing that during the peak of the pandemic but not anymore. You will probably need to work in the office first to get certified. I didn’t have any analyst experience beforehand but I was an Epic trainer. It is pretty technical regarding system analysis.

@shaniquasmith3382 6 месяцев назад

It's funny how the universe works. I just started working w/Hopkins and I want to become an EPIC analyst. I started researching and your video was one of the top ones. Any suggestions on how to get EPIC certified or transition into tech through Hopkins? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

@ourepicjourney 5 месяцев назад

Hey there! That’s awesome! Welcome to Hopkins. I would focus on finding workflow issues that you think could be improved with Epic. Run it with your manager and have them submit an intake ticket with their approval. This could give you exposure to the Epic world and get your name out there. Good luck!

@HarmonyofRevelation 5 месяцев назад

if you don't have a degree, I recommend getting a 2 or 4 year degree to give you that edge in your resume. otherwise it's kind of hard to move up the ladder

Hey thanks for this!! I'm currently a credentialed trainer. Do you think theres a transition to being an analysts? I'd be super interested in learning more about how to learn.

hey I have been trying to figure out what IT roles to take on and I am so glad I found your video so thank you for this. What do you recommend I take courses on to become a radiant analyst, I have 4 years of experience as a rad tech in a few hospitals big and small. Thank You

@ourepicjourney Год назад

Hi @doplesid, Thank you for your comment! There are no specific courses available to become a radiant analyst. Although what has helped me was learning more about data analytics and my experience working at a radiology department.

@@doplesid don’t get me wrong, doing that will definitely help you understand the RIS aspect of radiology so that’s great! This will definitely open up new opportunities for you which could lead to an Epic analyst opportunity. Continuing your education will definitely help all aspects of your career. Congrats!

Does this scope of field in Health Informatics require having any clinical hands on experience?

@ourepicjourney 7 месяцев назад

Hey there! It doesn’t, I was able to get into a masters program with a clerical position at a healthcare organization. There is no requirement to work as a clinician if you are looking for roles such as healthcare analytics or Epic roles.

@saldawood7123 11 месяцев назад

Hi, a recruiter contacted me regarding an Epic position. I have experience with epic as a hospital worker. I’m being told that I need to take the sphinx test before proceeding to the next round of interviews. I have taken this test before some yrs ago but I don’t remember anything. Is a failure an automatic disqualification, also how can I prepare for this test?

@ourepicjourney Месяц назад

Hey there! Sorry for the late reply. Still trying to figure out this RU-vid thing. Unfortunately, a failure in the Sphinx test is an automatic disqualification. Some questions are similar to this website's practice questions (The long ones towards the bottom): www.testprepreview.com/modules/reading1.htm

@sylviabrooks3382 Год назад

I’m currently a nurse and am looking to transition into becoming an Epic App. Analyst! I am curious if I need to become certified as some jobs I am seeing say it’s preferred but not required. I’m currently trying to change my resume to ensure it’s more appropriate for this role

@ourepicjourney Год назад

Hi Sylvia, That’s great!. Every Epic analyst does need to be certified before they can start working but you don’t need to be certified to get hired. The roles that don’t require a certification are the entry level Epic analyst roles. You can distinguish them by checking if the job description has this statement (Epic certification is required within 6 months from employment.) or anything similar to that. I Hope this helps! If you need some help with your resume you can message me on my LinkedIn @linkedin.com/in/gct19.

@habibafarid6741 Год назад

hey! I have a couple questions as a person about to start my first job as an epic applications analyst. How long does it take you to complete each ticket on average. Also, not including the time spent waiting for feedback ,how much time do you put into resolving each ticket. and how many tickets would you say you receive each day on average?

@ourepicjourney Год назад

Hi habiba, Congratulations! It honestly depends on the organization and complexity of the request but I can give you some of my takeaways with that. A very simple ticket should not take you more than an 1 hour. An easy task can take from 1 - 5 hours. A medium task could take you from 1 - 5 days. A large task could take you up to 2 weeks. A very large task could take from 2 weeks to a month. These are all for enhancement requests, meaning that they are builds that will improve the use of Epic. A project, on the other hand could be many multi-month thing that could take up to a year. If you are also working with break/fix issues, than those should usually take precedence over the enhancement tickets and projects. There usually is a timer on those where you have to contact the end user within 2 hours and solve the issue within 2 days. Hopefully this helps! If tell me which application you are working with then I could give you examples of those very easy, easy, medium, large tasks.

@lisajones4780 Год назад

Hello sir. I am very interested in becoming an EPIC analyst. I recently completed by Health Informatics degree and am trying to become certified. Do you have any tips for the EPIC Sphinx assessment? I take it soon and i fear i am not studying the correct areas. I would like to get this behind me and then I have about 100 questions for you! Thank you in advance.

@ourepicjourney Год назад

Hi Lisa! You came to right place for tips on how to become an Epic analyst. Your degree will definitely help you out at grasping the job roles in no time. I actually just posted a video regarding that. I failed my Sphinx test when I took it 😱. The only tip I can give you is to not overthink the questions, the questions are supposed to get harder as you keep going. The main area that you want to focus on is being able to understand how you can create your own "code" from scratch. Just understanding how variables work in a program like python would help. I'm sure that you will do great, good luck!

@checkeatout7304 2 месяца назад

Hi there, how can i get epic certified? I saw that all the job require epic certify which sponsor by employer. I'm new graduate and dont know how to get foot in the door ?

@ourepicjourney 2 месяца назад

Hey there! I would recommend you getting a job for a hospital department that you are interested in getting an Epic certification for. For example, I worked at a radiology department for a few years and got my first certification for the Epic Radiant (Radiology) certification. If you have a passion for helping out the emergency department then I recommend you getting a job working in the trenches of the ER or an administrative one overseeing the ER. Within a few years of using the Epic software you can start applying for entry-level Epic analyst jobs with the job title of Epic ASAP, ClinDoc or Orders. Hope this helps!

Hi there, do you need any advanced mathematics to become an Epic Data Analyst for Radiant or cupid? If so, could you provide which ones would be beneficial for this type of work? thank you so much

@ourepicjourney Год назад

Hi @JoAnnWren, You honestly don’t need any advance mathematics to become any kind of Epic analyst. I would just focus on anything related to databases and how to configure them.

@JoAnnWren Год назад

That's wonderful! Thank you so much! By the way, I took your advice on taking the Google data analyst certificate course to help w/the fundamentals and for some exposure to the material needed for these roles. Thank you for your tips and videos, I've tuned in to all and will book a consult w u soon!

Hello, I am a nurse and have been looking on ways to become an Epic analyst. Many jobs that I see require you to have a certification. Do you have any tips.

@ourepicjourney 9 месяцев назад

Hi Shamenrah, The best tip when looking for your first Epic analyst job is to look for keywords like “Required to complete and pass certification in assigned EPIC application module(s) within 120 days of employment in this role”. These are the epic roles that are willing to certify you if you don’t already have a certification. Hope this helps!

can you get into this with a health information management degree, or even a business degree?

@ourepicjourney 11 месяцев назад

Hi Kasey, Yes, of course. I would just suggest to get some healthcare experience working with an organization that uses Epic first. The Epic module that you would best excel at would be the HIM one.

@@ourepicjourney what did you major in? hmm, can you get a wfh job right away or you need to work in office first? i do not have bachelors now, but i was wondering if the type of degree you had mattered. wasnt sure if you needed like a computer science or informatics degree

@ourepicjourney 11 месяцев назад

@@goodvibesxox I have a Bachelor's in Kinesiology, so totally unrelated haha. Although, currently I'm pursing my Master's in Health Informatics. I don't think it matters as much as the healthcare experience working with Epic as an end user but it definitely helps you understand the technical concepts faster if you major in CS or Informatics.

How much do you get paid?

@ourepicjourney Месяц назад

The average salary for an Epic analyst is between $65,000 - $120,000 per year. As a consultant I think you can make between $50 - $110 per hour. It was much higher during the pandemic.
