Get answers from your Epic data without waiting on a Clarity specialist.
Epic holds the clinical, financial and operational data your people need. Getting it out takes a Clarity specialist, an IT ticket and, more often than not, three weeks. The researcher waits, and the finance team rebuilds the same report by hand.
Databasin began inside the data group at Washington University School of Medicine, which handled those requests every day. We built it to shorten the wait, and it runs in production there today.

Three people who need Epic data, and what changes for each
Show me sepsis encounters in the last 12 months, by unit.
Types exactly that into Databasin One and gets a governed answer, with the query attached. They don’t need to know Clarity’s table names or file a ticket.
Did last night’s refresh actually run?
When an Epic upgrade changes a table, Databasin catches the change and logs it before it reaches a report, so the overnight refresh keeps running.
Why doesn’t my readmission number match the CMO’s?
Because somebody built the calculation twice. Databasin keeps one definition of readmission, length of stay and denial, and every report draws from it.
Your team can ask Epic questions directly
Clarity expertise is rare, and the few people who have it are already stretched. Databasin brings Chronicles, Clarity and Caboodle in through one pipeline, with REDCap, FHIR and Workday beside them, and turns them into clean tables people can ask about in plain English.
When the answer is worth keeping, it becomes a Data App: a live page your department opens with a link. Bring the Power BI report your team already maintains and Databasin rebuilds it on the governed tables. Tableau is next.
The first step does take a conversation: someone on your side grants read access to Clarity or Caboodle, which usually involves IT and security. We’ve helped with many of these and are glad to join that call.

In production at three health systems today
Databasin runs at WashU Medicine, KU Medical Center and St. Francis Medical Center today. In each, it supports clinical research and operations. Microsoft and Databricks featured it at HIMSS in 2023, 2024 and 2025.
See it with your own Epic questions
Chris Lundeberg, who co-created the original Epic pipeline at WashU Medicine, runs the technical demo himself. Bring your Clarity questions and your security team.
