We are currently updating to SoftBank BB LIS, and were notified recently that EPIC has received FDA approval for its BB software. However, it doesn't appear to be available for use and I don't know whether anyone is doing beta-testing for them. For those looking at SoftBank, we were told it is a stand-alone system in anticipation of our facility jumping on EPIC Beaker. However, all billing and resulting have to go through SoftLab before crossing over to the appropriate HIS destinations. This was a big disappointment when we asked the right questions and learned the correct answer. Yes, it is a separate module, but it is NOT stand-alone. I don't know whether interfaces are possible without SoftLab, so this would be something to explore.
