Epic system in electronic health record business I know has a non-compete in their contract that forbid its consultants to work on their clients’ epic software for 1 year(heard might be 2 now) after they quit.

They enforce it by charging the client a large fee if they find out, and since Epic system pretty much has a monopoly, most clients just don’t want deal with the trouble of hiring an ex-employee before their non-compete expires.
