Windows Login (Healthcare) - How to Configure Custom Factor for Epic EHR in Tenant Admin Portal

Introduction

The Epic EHR Re-Authentication Workflow for the Windows Login application lets admins define which authentication factors users must complete when Epic prompts them to re-authenticate. Admins configure this workflow from the Epic EHR section of the Configure tab in the Tenant Admin Portal. Admins can select one or more custom factors for each context.
