Unify Healthcare Operations: Amazon Marketplace & Epic EHR Integration
Automate procurement, streamline financials, and enhance patient product journeys by seamlessly connecting Amazon's global marketplace with your Epic EHR system, powered by an intelligent iPaaS.
The Disconnect: Manual Processes & Siloed Data in Healthcare Commerce
Healthcare organizations often face significant challenges managing their supply chain, financial operations, and patient-related commerce across disparate systems. The manual effort required to bridge Amazon Marketplace data with Epic EHR leads to inefficiencies, errors, and compliance risks.
-
Manual Inventory Management: Discrepancies between physical stock, Epic's records, and Amazon listings lead to overselling or stockouts for critical medical supplies.
-
Complex Financial Reconciliation: Manually parsing Amazon's detailed settlement reports and inputting transactions into Epic's financial system is time-consuming and prone to human error.
-
Delayed Procurement: Slow, manual reordering processes for medical supplies impact patient care and operational efficiency.
-
Lack of Unified Patient View: Disconnected sales data from Amazon for patient-related products means no holistic view of patient interactions or billing.
-
Compliance & Security Risks: Handling sensitive patient (PHI) and financial data across non-integrated systems increases the risk of non-compliance and data breaches.

Integration Architecture: Connecting Amazon Marketplace and Epic EHR via iPaaS
Our integration solution establishes a secure, scalable, and intelligent bridge between Amazon Marketplace and Epic EHR, leveraging a modern iPaaS as the central orchestration layer. This architecture ensures reliable, real-time data flow, robust error handling, and end-to-end visibility across your healthcare and e-commerce operations.
Data Flow Steps
Secure API Connectivity: Establish authenticated connections to Amazon SP-API (OAuth 2.0 LWA) and Epic FHIR APIs (OAuth 2.0 / SMART on FHIR) within the iPaaS.
Event-Driven Triggers: Configure webhooks/notifications from Amazon (SP-API Notifications) for new orders, shipments, etc., and Epic's eventing capabilities (e.g., Open Epic events) for inventory changes or patient updates.
Data Ingestion & Extraction: The iPaaS listens for events or periodically polls for data from both systems, extracting relevant entities (e.g., Amazon Order, Epic ServiceRequest).
Canonical Data Model & Transformation: Ingested data is mapped to a canonical data model within the iPaaS. A low-code transformation engine converts data between Amazon's schema and Epic's FHIR-based structure, handling complex mappings (e.g., unit conversions, LOINC/SNOMED CT codes).
Business Logic & Orchestration: Workflows define the sequence of operations, applying business rules (e.g., reorder thresholds, financial reconciliation logic) and orchestrating multi-step processes across systems.
Data Validation & AI Anomaly Detection: Data is validated at multiple points. AI actively monitors for anomalies, data quality issues, or suspicious activities, triggering alerts or automated corrections.
Data Delivery & Update: Transformed and validated data is delivered to the target system via its respective APIs (e.g., `POST` to Epic FHIR `/Patient`, `PUT` to Amazon `/listings/2021-08-01/items`).
Error Handling & Monitoring: Comprehensive error logging, automated retries with exponential backoff, dead-letter queues, and real-time dashboards ensure integration reliability and rapid issue resolution.
Data Touchpoints
"Data flows bidirectionally: Amazon Marketplace (Orders, Listings, FinancialEvents) <-> iPaaS (Connectors, Transformations, Orchestration, AI) <-> Epic EHR (Patient, ServiceRequest, Inventory, Financials). Event-driven triggers initiate real-time synchronization, while batch processes handle large data volumes."

Automated Medical Supply Reordering & Inventory Sync
Optimize your healthcare supply chain by connecting Epic's inventory needs with Amazon Marketplace's procurement capabilities. When Epic indicates low stock for critical medical supplies, the integration automatically triggers a purchase order on Amazon. Upon shipment, Epic's inventory is updated in real-time, preventing stockouts and ensuring continuous patient care.
Integration Steps:
- 0 Epic's inventory management system (or related module) identifies a supply item (e.g., a specific sterile bandage with `sellerSKU` and `quantity`) falling below its reorder threshold.
- 1 An iPaaS-configured event listener or scheduled check queries Epic (via `ServiceRequest` or custom inventory API) for these low-stock items.
- 2 For each item, the iPaaS transforms the Epic supply item data into an Amazon `Order` request, mapping Epic's internal identifiers to Amazon `sellerSKU` or `ASIN`.
- 3 The iPaaS submits the order to Amazon Marketplace via `/orders/v0/orders` or `/listings/2021-08-01/items` (for specific buying channels).
- 4 Amazon processes the order, and the iPaaS subscribes to `Shipment` notifications (via `/notifications/v1/subscriptions`).
- 5 Upon shipment from Amazon, the iPaaS updates Epic's inventory (`Inventory` entity) with inbound quantities and tracking details (`Shipment` entity), and potentially adjusts `ServiceRequest` status in Epic.
Business Outcome
Minimized stockouts for essential medical supplies, improved inventory turnover, reduced manual procurement effort, and enhanced operational resilience.

API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- Unit Conversion: Convert Amazon's standard units (e.g., 'each') to Epic's clinical units (e.g., 'box of 10') for supply items.
- Status Mapping: Translate Amazon's `orderStatus` (e.g., 'Shipped', 'Partially Shipped') to Epic's internal `ServiceRequest.status` codes.
- Financial Event Categorization: Map Amazon's diverse `FinancialEvent.type` and `feeType` values to specific General Ledger accounts in Epic's financial system.
- Address Standardization: Harmonize shipping addresses from Amazon to match Epic's structured address formats.
- Product Attribute Enrichment: Enrich Amazon product listings with additional clinical details or internal codes from Epic's product master.
🛡️ Error Handling
- Amazon SP-API rate limit exceeded during peak order volume.
- Epic FHIR API returns a validation error for an incorrect patient ID.
- Network connectivity issue between iPaaS and Amazon/Epic.
- Data transformation logic fails due to unexpected input format.
- Duplicate Amazon order received and blocked by Epic's uniqueness constraints.
- Unforeseen `FinancialEvent.type` in Amazon settlement report.
