Yes. Microsoft Teams supports HIPAA-compliant virtual visits, care coordination, EHR integration via FHIR APIs, and clinical messaging. EPC Group has deployed Teams for healthcare across hospital networks with 5,000+ clinical users.
Engagements typically range from $75K to $350K depending on scope — from targeted Power BI clinical dashboards ($75K-$150K) to full Microsoft 365 platform modernization with compliance frameworks ($200K-$350K). EPC Group provides detailed SOWs after a complimentary discovery session.
Most engagements run 3-9 months. A focused Power BI analytics deployment takes 8-12 weeks, while a comprehensive Microsoft 365 modernization with governance frameworks and training typically takes 6-9 months for organizations with 1,000+ users.
EPC Group provides healthcare digital transformation with HIPAA-compliant Microsoft technology. Our solutions include:
We enhance clinical workflows, integrate EHR systems, develop patient portals, and improve healthcare analytics. We ensure full HIPAA Security Rule compliance from day one.
EPC Group's healthcare digital transformation practice covers five technology areas — each with compliance built into the architecture.
HIPAA compliance on Microsoft 365 and Azure is not automatic. It requires specific configuration across six control areas.
Healthcare organizations generate massive amounts of clinical and operational data. Power BI turns that data into decisions.
All EPC Group healthcare Power BI deployments include row-level security tied to clinical roles. These roles are:
Patient Health Information (PHI) remains hidden from unauthorized users, regardless of how the report is accessed.
Microsoft Teams is now a clinical communication platform for many health systems. EPC Group configures Teams for healthcare with the following controls.
Microsoft 365 can support HIPAA compliance if set up correctly. Microsoft provides a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) at no cost for E3/E5 enterprise agreements.
To achieve HIPAA compliance, the following features must be configured:
EPC Group will configure these elements as part of a compliant deployment.
Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare includes a range of Microsoft solutions. These are Azure, M365, Dynamics 365, and Power Platform. Each solution comes with healthcare-specific features such as:
EPC Group utilizes this platform for healthcare digital transformation projects.
Yes, Power BI can process and display PHI when set up correctly. It must be in a HIPAA-compliant M365 tenant and include:
EPC Group ensures that every healthcare Power BI deployment meets HIPAA Security Rule requirements before going live.
Deploying a HIPAA-compliant M365 solution typically takes about 8 to 12 weeks. In contrast, a complete healthcare analytics platform requires more time.
This comprehensive solution usually takes 3 to 6 months to implement.
Enterprise-wide digital transformation programs that cover all five technology areas typically take 12 to 24 months.
