CancerIQ has launched an upgraded integration for Epic Systems software to streamline the flow of patient health information. The update allows for automatic data ingestion across more than 60 health systems and 275 clinic locations nationwide.
Why it matters
This integration aims to eliminate duplicative data entry for both patients and clinicians, potentially improving the efficiency of managing complex cancer screening records. By automating the transfer of critical information, the system intends to simplify how health history is accessed during care.
The CancerIQ platform is now deployed across 60 health systems and 275 clinic locations, utilizing the HL7 FHIR R4 interoperability standard to connect with Epic Systems. The current scope reaches 1 in 10 patients nationwide, though specific clinical outcome data is not yet established.
The players
CancerIQ
A health technology company providing software for cancer risk assessment and clinical workflows.
Epic Systems
A developer of electronic health record software widely used by health systems to store patient medical data.
The details
The platform utilizes bi-directional data reading and writing to sync with Epic EHR interfaces, pulling family cancer histories, diagnoses, biopsies, breast density reports, lab findings, and medications directly into the workflow. Patients manage this process through their health system patient portal, where they authenticate to authorize secure data access. Additionally, the patient-facing Risk Hub has been redesigned to integrate with Epic MyChart for a more cohesive experience.

Health Landscape
This integration update follows the broader adoption of the HL7 FHIR R4 standard as the technical foundation for improving data exchange between electronic health records and specialized clinical software. It represents a shift toward more automated, interoperable workflows in oncology care.
Patients may find that their health history is more easily accessible to their care team during screenings if their provider uses these updated tools. If you are preparing for a cancer risk assessment, you may want to discuss with your doctor whether your health records are being securely shared.
The takeaway
Automated data integration aims to simplify the documentation process for patients and clinicians during cancer screenings. Patients should confirm with their care team if their medical center uses these digital tools to assist in managing their health records.
