Unify Healthcare Operations: Amazon Marketplace & Epic EHR Integration

Automate procurement, streamline financials, and enhance patient product journeys by seamlessly connecting Amazon's global marketplace with your Epic EHR system, powered by an intelligent iPaaS.

The Challenge

The Disconnect: Manual Processes & Siloed Data in Healthcare Commerce

Healthcare organizations often face significant challenges managing their supply chain, financial operations, and patient-related commerce across disparate systems. The manual effort required to bridge Amazon Marketplace data with Epic EHR leads to inefficiencies, errors, and compliance risks.

  • Manual Inventory Management: Discrepancies between physical stock, Epic's records, and Amazon listings lead to overselling or stockouts for critical medical supplies.
  • Complex Financial Reconciliation: Manually parsing Amazon's detailed settlement reports and inputting transactions into Epic's financial system is time-consuming and prone to human error.
  • Delayed Procurement: Slow, manual reordering processes for medical supplies impact patient care and operational efficiency.
  • Lack of Unified Patient View: Disconnected sales data from Amazon for patient-related products means no holistic view of patient interactions or billing.
  • Compliance & Security Risks: Handling sensitive patient (PHI) and financial data across non-integrated systems increases the risk of non-compliance and data breaches.

Integration Architecture: Connecting Amazon Marketplace and Epic EHR via iPaaS

Our integration solution establishes a secure, scalable, and intelligent bridge between Amazon Marketplace and Epic EHR, leveraging a modern iPaaS as the central orchestration layer. This architecture ensures reliable, real-time data flow, robust error handling, and end-to-end visibility across your healthcare and e-commerce operations.

Data Flow Steps

Secure API Connectivity: Establish authenticated connections to Amazon SP-API (OAuth 2.0 LWA) and Epic FHIR APIs (OAuth 2.0 / SMART on FHIR) within the iPaaS.

Event-Driven Triggers: Configure webhooks/notifications from Amazon (SP-API Notifications) for new orders, shipments, etc., and Epic's eventing capabilities (e.g., Open Epic events) for inventory changes or patient updates.

Data Ingestion & Extraction: The iPaaS listens for events or periodically polls for data from both systems, extracting relevant entities (e.g., Amazon Order, Epic ServiceRequest).

Canonical Data Model & Transformation: Ingested data is mapped to a canonical data model within the iPaaS. A low-code transformation engine converts data between Amazon's schema and Epic's FHIR-based structure, handling complex mappings (e.g., unit conversions, LOINC/SNOMED CT codes).

Business Logic & Orchestration: Workflows define the sequence of operations, applying business rules (e.g., reorder thresholds, financial reconciliation logic) and orchestrating multi-step processes across systems.

Data Validation & AI Anomaly Detection: Data is validated at multiple points. AI actively monitors for anomalies, data quality issues, or suspicious activities, triggering alerts or automated corrections.

Data Delivery & Update: Transformed and validated data is delivered to the target system via its respective APIs (e.g., `POST` to Epic FHIR `/Patient`, `PUT` to Amazon `/listings/2021-08-01/items`).

Error Handling & Monitoring: Comprehensive error logging, automated retries with exponential backoff, dead-letter queues, and real-time dashboards ensure integration reliability and rapid issue resolution.

Data Touchpoints

Amazon: Order, OrderItem, Product, Listing, Inventory, Shipment, FinancialEvent, Report, Customer, Refund
Epic: Patient, Appointment, Encounter, ServiceRequest, Observation, Practitioner, Organization, Claim, MedicationRequest, Location, (and internal inventory/financial entities)

"Data flows bidirectionally: Amazon Marketplace (Orders, Listings, FinancialEvents) <-> iPaaS (Connectors, Transformations, Orchestration, AI) <-> Epic EHR (Patient, ServiceRequest, Inventory, Financials). Event-driven triggers initiate real-time synchronization, while batch processes handle large data volumes."

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for Amazon and Epic Integration

The integration focuses on harmonizing critical data entities between Amazon Marketplace and Epic EHR. Our iPaaS provides a visual, AI-assisted mapping canvas to ensure accurate, compliant, and efficient data exchange, handling the complexities of both e-commerce and healthcare data models.

Order / ServiceRequest

Amazon's 'Order' represents a customer purchase. In Epic, an equivalent 'ServiceRequest' can represent an internal order (e.g., for supplies) or a referral, which can be extended for commercial orders.

Amazon Marketplace Fields

amazonOrderId purchaseDate orderStatus fulfillmentChannel shippingAddress orderTotal buyerName buyerEmail

Epic Fields

id status intent subject (Patient.id) requester (Practitioner.id) code (type of service) occurrence note

Mapping Notes

Amazon's `Order` often maps to a custom `ServiceRequest` or an internal 'Commercial Order' entity within Epic. Key challenge is mapping `buyerName`/`shippingAddress` to Epic's `Patient` or `Customer` for identification, with strict PHI considerations. `orderTotal` maps to financial line items.

Automated Medical Supply Reordering & Inventory Sync

Optimize your healthcare supply chain by connecting Epic's inventory needs with Amazon Marketplace's procurement capabilities. When Epic indicates low stock for critical medical supplies, the integration automatically triggers a purchase order on Amazon. Upon shipment, Epic's inventory is updated in real-time, preventing stockouts and ensuring continuous patient care.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 Epic's inventory management system (or related module) identifies a supply item (e.g., a specific sterile bandage with `sellerSKU` and `quantity`) falling below its reorder threshold.
  2. 1 An iPaaS-configured event listener or scheduled check queries Epic (via `ServiceRequest` or custom inventory API) for these low-stock items.
  3. 2 For each item, the iPaaS transforms the Epic supply item data into an Amazon `Order` request, mapping Epic's internal identifiers to Amazon `sellerSKU` or `ASIN`.
  4. 3 The iPaaS submits the order to Amazon Marketplace via `/orders/v0/orders` or `/listings/2021-08-01/items` (for specific buying channels).
  5. 4 Amazon processes the order, and the iPaaS subscribes to `Shipment` notifications (via `/notifications/v1/subscriptions`).
  6. 5 Upon shipment from Amazon, the iPaaS updates Epic's inventory (`Inventory` entity) with inbound quantities and tracking details (`Shipment` entity), and potentially adjusts `ServiceRequest` status in Epic.

Business Outcome

Minimized stockouts for essential medical supplies, improved inventory turnover, reduced manual procurement effort, and enhanced operational resilience.
