About Epieme
Civic intelligence for patient-safety records.
Epieme makes public patient-safety policy records searchable, source-linked, and visible before the hearing, vote, or comment period is already over.
It started with an ICU physician, a retaliation story, and 22,000 people asking for answers.
Epieme began after Samson Cournane watched his mother, pediatric critical care physician Dr. Anne Yered, raise patient-safety concerns in Maine and face retaliation.
The public record was technically available, but it was spread across committee pages, calendars, public documents, and advocacy threads. Samson organized the trail by hand and launched a petition to Rep. Jared Golden calling for an investigation into local hospital safety conditions.
A record that exists after the deadline is not meaningful access.

Unlike generic bill trackers, every Epieme summary stays attached to the public source.
Source-linked patient-safety records with official URLs, update cadence, and a visible hearing deadline in the same view.

Where does Epieme get records?
Public state legislative pages, hearing calendars, source documents, petitions, and related policy records. Each surfaced claim should link back to the underlying source.
Who is the first customer?
Patient-safety advocates and policy teams who need to verify public records quickly. Hospital and institutional pilots should use the same source-first workflow.
What is defensible?
The moat is trust: source provenance, repeatable methodology, update discipline, and a civic distribution path grounded in patient-safety advocacy.
Is this medical advice?
No. Epieme tracks public policy and accountability records. It does not provide clinical guidance, diagnosis, or legal advice.
