What is the Epic Fhir MCP Server?
Connect Epic electronic health records to any AI agent and query clinical data through natural conversation instead of navigating complex EHR interfaces.
What you can do
- Patient Search — Find patients by name, date of birth, or medical record number across your Epic system
- Clinical Encounters — Review admissions, ER visits, and outpatient appointments with dates, reasons, and locations
- Lab Results & Vitals — Pull observations including blood work, vital signs, and social history with reference ranges
- Diagnoses & Conditions — List active and resolved conditions with ICD-10 codes, onset dates, and severity
- Medications & Allergies — View current prescriptions, dosage instructions, and documented allergic reactions
- Appointments & Immunizations — Check upcoming schedules and full vaccination history with lot numbers
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your FHIR Server URL, Client ID, and Access Token from your Epic App Orchard registration
- Start querying patient records from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Epic is the world's most widely used electronic health record system, serving over 305 million patients worldwide.
Who is this for?
- Clinical Informaticists — extract patient cohort data and clinical metrics without writing SQL against the data warehouse
- Care Coordinators — quickly review a patient's full medical timeline before a care transition meeting
- Health IT Developers — prototype FHIR-based workflows and validate API responses interactively

Frequently asked questions
Can I search for a patient and instantly see their full medical timeline?
Yes! Use search_patients with name or MRN to find the patient, then chain list_encounters, list_conditions, and list_medications to build a full clinical picture. Your agent compiles everything in seconds — no chart-clicking required.
How do I prepare a patient summary before a care coordination meeting?
Ask your agent to pull everything at once: 'Show me the full medical history for patient ID abc123.' It will call get_patient for demographics, list_conditions for active diagnoses, list_medications for current prescriptions, and list_allergies for safety alerts — delivering a structured briefing ready for your meeting.
Is this integration read-only? Can it modify patient data?
This integration is entirely read-only. All 10 tools are query operations — search, list, and retrieve. No tool can create, update, or delete any clinical data. Your Epic FHIR access token controls exactly which patients and resources are visible, enforcing your existing HIPAA access controls.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
