American Family Children's Hospital in Madison, Wis., part of University of Wisconsin Health, is testing an Epic app, according to a Wisconsin State Journal report.
The MyChart Bedside app provides patients and families with treatment and care information and allows them to communicate with the patient's care team.
The app is being piloted on the fifth floor. Parents of patients can access the app on tablet computers.
UW Health plans to use MyChart Bedside at all UW Hospitals, according to the report.
