Frequently Asked Questions

How is COLAB different from working with a traditional vendor?

Traditional vendors sell fixed, one-size-fits-all software with long procurement cycles. Commure CoLab is different—we work side-by-side with your hospital to build exactly what you need, iterate quickly, and ensure seamless integration into your EMR and operations.

How many CoLab opportunities are available?

We only accept five CoLab partners per cycle, twice a year (semi-annually). This ensures that our engineering team can deliver high-quality, focused work and provide each hospital with full attention, hands-on collaboration, and white-glove support throughout the process. Spots fill up quickly—secure your place in the next CoLab cycle!

Who should apply for CoLab?

CoLab is ideal for forward-thinking hospital leaders who:

  • Have a high-priority operational challenge that needs a fast solution.
  • Want custom AI and automation, to help optimize labor inefficiencies
  • Need seamless integration into their EMR and hospital systems’ workflows
  • Are looking to build out a solution that they may not be able to find off-the-shelf

Does Commure CoLab integrate with Epic, Cerner, Meditech, or other EHRs?

Yes, seamless EMR integration is a core part of every CoLab project. We work with Epic, Cerner, Meditech, Athena, eCW, and more, ensuring zero disruption to existing workflows.

How much does it cost?

Our pricing depends on the project scope and hospital size, but your initial engagement is completely free. You'll receive a prototype, onsite support, and a risk-free pilot—no financial commitment required. We focus on delivering measurable value before any investment.

How does Commure handle security and compliance?

All CoLab solutions follow strict healthcare security standards, including HIPAA compliance, SOC2 certification, and security best practices. Our technology is built to meet enterprise security requirements from day one.

Do hospitals need in-house technical teams to participate?

No—CoLab is designed to handle the heavy lifting. While we can collaborate with hospital IT teams for integration, our engineers build, test, and deploy the solution without requiring major technical investment from your team.
