EHR Migration - CapMinds
EHR migration involves the data transfer from the existing system to the new system. This usually happens when providers switch vendors or upgrade systems.
EHR Data Migration consists of 7 step process:
Planning & Assessment - Identify the need for migration, data formats, structures, interoperability, and functionalities.
Data cleanup - Removes duplicate data and inconsistent data. Convert the data into standardized formats like HL7, FHIR, or CSV.
System Configuration - Configure the data from the existing system to the current EHR to meet organizational needs.
Migration - Develop a migration strategy for data transfer. Transfer all the data from the old system. Transfer the entire data set to decrease the downtime.
Data Validation & Testing - Check with a sample amount of data to validate the accuracy. Confirm whether all the data are transferred correctly. Fix the issues before going to live.
Training & Implementation - Provide training to staff for using the new system. Transforming to the new system and offering ongoing technical support. Make the system live access.
Post Implementation - Track the monitor performance, speed, and data retrieval. Identify the challenges and fix them accordingly. Optimise workflows for better user experience.
Data Migration is an important process that ensures data transfer, and compatibility. Proper planning, migration, and post-implementation support are required for a successful EHR migration.
