Senior Business Analyst / Consultant – Belgian Hospital ADT Workflows
Description
The hospital is modernizing its Hospital Information System and rolling out the Epic platform across the enterprise. This assignment focuses on Patient Admission, Discharge and Transfer workflows and their migration to Epic Prelude. The consultant will document current and target processes while ensuring strict alignment with Belgian regulatory, insurance and technology frameworks. The work sits at the intersection of hospital operations, functional analysis and healthcare interoperability.
The consultant will lead workshops with Emergency, Inpatient, Day Hospital and Outpatient admissions teams, as well as billing, invoicing and IT leadership. The scope includes identity verification, insurance eligibility, regional and national health platforms, and the integrations needed to support them. Direct coordination with Epic specialists will assess the Belgian localization package and mechanisms such as HL7, FHIR and custom APIs. Business-critical flows and continuity risks must also be identified and addressed.
The assignment must result in a detailed target blueprint, a fit/gap and feasibility matrix, and a strategic migration and rollout plan. Recommendations may include customizations, middleware solutions or process adaptations where standard Epic capabilities do not meet Belgian needs. The roadmap must cover phasing, technical prerequisites, dependencies, dual-run considerations, data remediation and cut-over. The engagement runs for roughly two months in a hybrid model with on-site stakeholder workshops and steering meetings.
