Epic Man: Immediate Release of Test Results and Anticipatory Guidance

New performance! Epic Man, the version for Immediate Release of Test results and Anticipatory Guidance.

In the era of the 21st Century Cures Act and Information Blocking Statute, how else are we going to each folks what to do?

Just put on an Epic UGM 2023 hat, get the 4-strings out, and plug away. Here are the lyrics:

& Epic man. Open Results 2023

She checked my templates last night preflight.

Zero hour, eight AM,

I’ll be deep in my Inbasket by then,

I miss paper charts so much, I miss my life,

It’s lonely in HyperSpace,

On such a timeless flight.

And I think it’s gonna be a long long time

Before I delay a test result again

I’m not the man they think I am at all,

Oh, no no no.

I’m an Epic-man, Epic-man sharing test results instantly

7 days ain’t the kinda way to delay your results

In fact, info blocking is now banned

And there’s no one here will defend you, if you did

And some results, patients won’t understand

Anticipatory guidance is our plan

Epic-man, Epic-man.

And I think it’s gonna be a long long time

Before I delay a test result again

I’m not the man they think I am at all,

Oh, no no no.

I’m an Epic-man, Epic-man sharing test results instantly

And it ain’t gonna be a long long time

And it ain’t gonna be a long long time
