Piedmont Tech Stack
27-hospital Georgia health system serving 4.5M patients across 2,100+ locations
Piedmont operates one of Georgia's largest integrated health systems, anchored by Epic Systems for clinical operations and a surgical-device-heavy stack (da Vinci, Impella, GlideScope) reflecting its specialization in high-acuity care—cardiology, transplant, cancer, neurology. Hiring remains heavily clinical (1,442 healthcare roles) with persistent staffing shortages and discharge-timing friction listed as top operational pain points, suggesting the system is scaling bed capacity and care volume faster than it can staff them.
