Epic Introduces Health Alerts

April 8, 2026
Epic Research now monitors health conditions across the U.S. at the county level and publishes Health Alerts when elevated rates are detected.

Epic Research now monitors health conditions across the U.S. at the county level and publishes Health Alerts when elevated rates are detected. The alerts use statistical models applied to real-world medical records to detect when the rate of a health condition in a county is higher than expected. Each alert is reviewed by the Epic Research team before it is published.

You can view active Health Alerts here. You can also subscribe to receive Health Alerts by email. Subscribers receive new alert notifications when an elevated rate is first detected in a state and weekly summaries of all active, new, and resolved alerts.
