LexisNexis® Risk Solutions has announced that its Identity Proofing for MyChart solution is now available in the Epic Toolbox Program under the Identity Verification for MyChart category, enabling U.S. hospitals and health systems using Epic electronic health record systems to deploy modular identity verification tools without custom development via the Epic Connection Hub. The integration leverages AI and machine learning to analyze global transaction patterns, delivering multi-signal intelligence across digital identity, email, phone, and biometrics to counter emerging threats like bot attacks, synthetic identity fraud, forged documents, and deepfakes while supporting NIST IAL2-level assurance. Highlighting the implementation efficiency for healthcare IT departments, Brad Bauer, SVP and general manager, healthcare, LexisNexis Risk Solutions, stated:

“Being in the Epic Toolbox Program validates that our solution seamlessly aligns with Epic technical blueprints, providing healthcare IT teams with a predictable, repeatable deployment process. By removing implementation complexity, we enable health systems to quickly protect patient accounts with robust identity proofing that preserves intuitive user workflows.” Emphasizing the balance between digital trust and patient accessibility, Bauer added: “These capabilities help health systems strengthen trust in digital access while preserving the usability patients and workforces expect. The configurability of the suite of solutions allows healthcare organizations to keep routine interactions relatively simple while managing higher-risk interactions with stronger verification to help defend against emerging threats like synthetic identity fraud, forged documents and deepfake-enabled impersonations.” Ultimately, this native integration empowers enterprise healthcare networks to enforce risk-based, adaptive identity access controls that secure patient portals without introducing user friction.
