Cook Children's Health Care System Tech Stack
Pediatric health system with 10,000+ employees across Texas clinics and specialty centers
Cook Children's is a large nonprofit health system operating Level II trauma, oncology, cardiac, and neuroscience centers across Texas. The tech stack reveals a heavily clinical-IT operation: Epic Systems and Meditech for EHR, Workday for HR, Snowflake + Tableau + SAP BusinessObjects for analytics and reporting, with older business-process tools (Excel, Access, Crystal Reports, EDI) still embedded in workflows. Active hiring skews 52% junior/mid-level clinical staff, paired with current projects in epilepsy and transplant programs, denial management, and accounts-receivable optimization — signaling a system managing both clinical expansion and revenue-cycle pressure.
