    Will ASAP cause confusion since we have an ASAP clinic on campus?

      Hello! We discussed your question and we don't think it will cause confusion since the ASAP clinic on campus that you're talking about is the Asthma, Sinus, Allergy Program. The ASAP Epic term relates to an Emergency Room application which will only be used internally by Emergency Department staff. When communicating about Epic more globally/generally to the entire organization, we won’t be referring to individual application names. Instead, we’ll continue to refer to the entire health record system as "Epic."
