UNC Health Tech Stack
Major academic health system serving North Carolina with 40,000-person workforce
UNC Health operates North Carolina's largest academic medical center, serving all 100 counties with 40,000 staff across patient care, research translation, and medical education. The stack reveals a classic health-system architecture—Epic for EHR, PACS/SECTRA for imaging, Workday for HR, Tableau for analytics—but the hiring velocity (162 roles in the last 30 days, accelerating) and the concentration of open positions in healthcare operations (510 of 567) suggest active scaling of clinical capacity rather than IT transformation. Pain-point data shows the organization is currently focused on surgical workflow optimization, capacity management, and clinical policy standardization rather than technical modernization.
