Three of the top four hospitals in the US choose Discharge 1-2-3 for their emergency departments.
Hospitals choose which discharge instruction and patient education content to include in their Epic system. Did you know that your ED instructions don’t need to be the same as your other content? Discerning hospitals like Cleveland Clinic, UC San Diego, University of Arizona, and many others have switched to Discharge 1-2-3 from their initial content vendors.
