The integration allows providers to view physician availability and schedule appointments.
"This collaboration is a model of digital health openness, showing how complementary services can benefit patients, providers and the healthcare ecosystem on the whole," said Oliver Kharraz, MD, founder and CEO of Zocdoc, in a statement. "We're proud to work with Epic to drive even more value for healthcare organizations and deliver the simple, connected experience patients expect and deserve."
