To convert this context from medicalese to technese - when a hospital (system) buys an EMR (medical record system), it's like purchasing a very fancy version of "vim" or "emacs"
As all of you know, vanilla vim or emacs can be a very different experience from a polished and tuned up config file version.
So doctors are at the whims of their hospitals high (or often low) quality vim/emacs config, or .rc file of your choice - that's what "implementation" means
Some systems like Kaiser are famous for having super duper special high quality epic configuration, making epic famous for quality, though implementations (vimrc) in other hospitals, most other hospitals, is shite
