Who runs Epieme

Epieme is an independent project that started at Johns Hopkins University. It's run by a small team of volunteers who believe patient-safety information should be open to everyone, not just well-funded lobbying groups.

Common questions

Is my gift tax-deductible?

No. Epieme is an independent project, not a registered charity, so gifts aren't tax-deductible. We're exploring 501(c)(3) status and will update this page if that changes.

How do I cancel a monthly gift?

Email support@epieme.org from the address you used at checkout and we'll cancel it. No questions asked.

Can I get a refund?

Gifts are non-refundable. If you were charged by mistake, for example twice for the same gift, email support@epieme.org within 30 days and we'll refund the mistaken charge. See the terms.

Where does the money go?

It pays for running Epieme: the legislative data, hosting, and the email alerts. Nothing on the site is behind a paywall.

Why doesn't Epieme run ads?

Healthcare legislation affects the same companies that would want to advertise here. Taking their money could compromise how we cover bills that affect them. We'd rather be funded by the people we serve.
