Why they chose Nabla
Built for clinicians
Nabla adapted to how McFarland clinicians already work—supporting complex visits, streamlining documentation for new encounters, and improving note quality without the need for pre-charting.
Immediate impact
Clinicians reported time savings from day one. Many reported finishing charts on time, reducing evening work, and feeling less stressed at the end of the day.
Seamless Epic integration
Nabla integrates directly into Epic Hyperdrive and was adopted quickly across specialties. Clinicians reported experiencing the shortest learning curve with any technology.
Leadership Perspective
"As part of our commitment to value-based care, we’re investing in tools that ease the pressure on providers and strengthen the patient relationship. Nabla is helping us do both by making documentation feel less burdensome and more aligned with how our clinicians want to practice."
