Epic Systems Analyst Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a epic systems analyst in Pennsylvania?
Most Pennsylvania employers require a bachelor's degree in health informatics, nursing, information systems, or a related field, plus Epic certification in at least one module. There is no Pennsylvania state license specific to this role, but analysts who enter from clinical backgrounds may hold active Pennsylvania clinical licenses that strengthen their candidacy. Large Pennsylvania health systems such as Penn Medicine and UPMC run internal Epic training pipelines, and Epic itself issues module certifications through its Verona, Wisconsin-based training program.
How much do epic systems analysts make in Pennsylvania?
Epic systems analysts in Pennsylvania earn a median of about $98,550 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $63,910 for the lowest 10% to over $133,670 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire epic systems analysts in Pennsylvania?
Employers hiring epic systems analysts in Pennsylvania right now include United Concordia Dental, UPMC, and Penn State Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Pennsylvania's concentration of large integrated health systems and academic medical centers means demand is relatively stable year-round compared with smaller states.
Which Pennsylvania cities have the most epic systems analyst jobs?
Pennsylvania, Hershey, and Pittsburgh have the most epic systems analyst openings in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia leads because of the density of large academic medical centers and regional health plans headquartered there, Pittsburgh follows due to UPMC's scale as one of the country's largest integrated health systems, and the Lehigh Valley draws openings from Geisinger's regional operations and St. Luke's University Health Network.
Are there remote epic systems analyst jobs in Pennsylvania?
Yes, and more than most healthcare IT roles, since much of the work involves system configuration, reporting, and stakeholder communication rather than bedside or on-site support. About 100% of epic systems analyst openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how far health systems have shifted analyst work off-site post-implementation. Go-live support and training roles are the most likely to require on-site presence.
How can I get hired as a epic systems analyst in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a support or help-desk role within a Pennsylvania health system's IT department, where you gain exposure to Epic ticketing and end-user troubleshooting before moving into an analyst track. UPMC and Penn Medicine both run IT associate programs that bring in candidates without deep Epic backgrounds. Holding an Epic certification in a high-demand module, or transitioning from a clinical role such as registered nurse or medical coder, significantly improves your chances at Pennsylvania employers.
Where can I find and apply to epic systems analyst jobs in Pennsylvania?
