Epic Systems, the electronic health records company behind the MyChart patient portal, has paused most of its technology development to make sure its systems are secure against cyberattacks, founder and CEO Judy Faulkner said Tuesday at Modern Healthcare's Leadership Summit. She said the pause covers hundreds of projects and that the security work is expected to last about six more weeks.
A day later, the company offered a different emphasis. "Our development roadmap hasn't changed since we presented it at our August 2026 Users Group Meeting," an Epic spokesperson said in a statement to local media and other outlets.
