Epic and POC

For those of you who may be using Epic as your HIS/LIS - does anyone utilize this platform for tracking or performance of POC QC, maintenance and function checks for devices, or things of that nature? I am trying to find a way I can have people that run QC for POC tests can log their results directly into Epic instead of keeping manual logs out in a bunch of units. Not sure if that is even doable on Epic but hoping someone has some tips/tricks.
