The healthcare sector faces an enormous challenge: demand for care is rising while the labour market is getting tighter. Seamless data exchange is no longer a luxury but a harsh necessity. The Epic Vereniging NL is taking a big step forward here by jointly choosing a modern API management platform.
In a recent LinkedIn post, the association shares its vision on the shift from traditional integrations to modern APIs and the need for a robust platform to manage them.
For Epic hospitals in the Netherlands and Belgium
The collaboration within the Epic Vereniging NL shows what is possible when hospitals join forces. By standardising on MuleSoft with Harmony as strategic partner, these hospitals are speeding up their digital transformation.

Do you use ChipSoft (HiX) or Nexus?
The principles of smart integration don't stop at the door of the EHR.
Although this particular tender came from the Epic community, the underlying challenge is universal. Every hospital, whatever its EHR, struggles with data fragmented across care-related and supporting systems. That is exactly where a modern integration platform shows its strength.
An API management layer acts as the 'power strip' for your entire organisation.
Think of seamlessly connecting:
- HR and workforce planning: automatic synchronisation between rosters, leave requests and contract management.
- Financial flows: real-time insight into purchasing, invoicing and budget control across departments.
- Facilities and building management: smart connections for space use, maintenance planning and energy consumption.
- Care logistics and medical equipment: optimisation of material flows and asset management (maintenance and availability of equipment).
Whether you work on HiX, Nexus or another platform, the need to break down silos is the same. MuleSoft and Harmony offer a future-proof architecture that connects your entire IT landscape, from the operating theatre to the administration.
