Throughout your time in medical school rotations and IM residency training, you should have been exposed to different EHR programs and learned to work effectively on each. Your interviewers want to know that you can quickly learn the system they use.

"During medical school, I was fortunate to learn EPIC, Cerner, and a custom system the hospital created. During my Internal Medicine training, I worked solely within EPIC. I learned how to look up patient records, chart notes, order labs, and prescribe medications. While all systems had the same end goals, they operated very differently. I am very computer savvy and picked up on each program quickly. I'm happy to hear that your institution uses EPIC because I am very comfortable in the system and confident in my ability to pick up on things quickly once training starts."

First, speak openly and honestly about your experiences with different EHR programs during your training by describing each program you trained on and the role you played working within each. Then ensure your interviewers know you are comfortable working on their system by expressing your ability to learn any program in short order.
"I have gained valuable experience using EHRs over the past seven years. I worked on EPIC and Cerner during my clinical rotations and residency training and have a lot of confidence in my ability to learn and master any system."
