Rutgers does not “own” the electronic medical record systems used at our partner hospital systems, so does not control training or access to the systems.

University Hospital-Newark – EPIC EMR

For information on how to request access to University Hospital-Newark, Epic EMR system for research (and NOT clinical) purposes see instructions on the NJMS-OCRA website.

 

RWJBarnabas Health - EPIC EMR

A necessary first step for a Rutgers researcher to request access to RWJBarnabas Health – EPIC EMR system, is to complete a CAM (Centralized Access Management) request.  This creates a guest account for the RWJBH network and serves as the conduit to request access to Epic and other required applications.   RWJBH has delegated authority to a number of Rutgers employees to facilitate CAM requests.  For RWJMS employees, a clinical department administrator generally serves in this role.  The steps to make a CAM request are as follows:

 

  1. Find your appropriate Rutgers CAM liaison.
  2. Provide them the following information:
    1. Name
    2. Email
    3. Phone Number
    4. Job Title
    5. Last 4 Digits of SSN

 

Should you encounter any issues with these initial steps, or if you have specific questions about Epic access, you may contact the Enterprise Help Desk at 1-855-453-1950.
