Epic won the top software suite ranking for the seventh year in a row in the 2017 Best of KLAS: Software & Services Report, along with winning Best in KLAS awards and being named top physician practice vendor.

The company’s dominance in the health IT awards is no surprise, as it reportedly makes a third of all certified electronic health records (EHR) products as of 2015. Among Epic’s winning product categories were Acute Care EMR (Epic EpicCare Inpatient EMR), Health Information Exchange (Epic Care Everywhere) and Patient Accounting & Patient Management (Epic Resolute Hospital Billing).

Cerner, CareTech Solutions, MedSys Group and Merge, an IBM Company, each won two awards, and Optimum Healthcare IT won top IT service firm and one Best in KLAS award.

“The Best in KLAS report celebrates and recognizes vendors who have made significant strides to improve healthcare while addressing changes like payment reform and the shift to population health,” Adam Gale, President of KLAS, said in a statement. “The KLAS team applauds your efforts and acknowledges your commitment to innovation and achievement. As the years go by, we are continually humbled by the number of providers who share their experiences with us; they make all our reports, especially our Best in KLAS report, possible.”
