Epic and Cerner have been around since before UX and SDLC were common parlance, so their software and processes are likely locked into what we consider bad practices today.

Healthcare software exists in a weird trap where it can't move too quickly because hospitals are resistant to change, but it's software, and the software world normally moves quickly (including things around software like UX and SDLC concepts and ideas).

Simultaneously, hospitals can be slow getting off of deprecated platforms because of dysfunctional IT leadership, bad budgeting, and staff that can't or don't want to learn new software.
