Judith Faulkner, founder and CEO of Epic Systems, an electronic health software company that facilitates separating parents from children in medical decision-making, is a major donor to left-wing candidates, a dcexaminer investigation revealed.

A Washington Examiner investigation revealed that Faulkner's company has been used by doctors as the conduit, often through minor consent laws, to allow children to pursue medical pathways like cross-sex hormones and genital mutilation surgeries without the knowledge or consent of their parents.

Faulkner's Epic empire grew to be the records software of choice for hospital systems representing 305 million patients, including Johns Hopkins, Children's Hospital, and Cleveland Clinic. Controlling 36% of market share for hospitals, Epic has an 11% advantage over the next closest competitor, Oracle Cerner.

Children's Hospital New Orleans was able to use one of Epic's products, MyChart, to enable 13-year-old girl Violet to access doctors without having to even go to the hospital, something parents Tandy Lynn Hebert and Sean Chiasson say denied them a say in their child's medical decisions.
