FAQs


An EMR is the digital version of a patient’s chart and contains the medical and treatment history of the patient within a practice. It is primarily used by providers for diagnosis and treatment. EMR’s are designed to be used within a single practice or clinic and not designed to share information outside the practice.

An EHR is a more comprehensive system that contains patient information from multiple doctors and is a more longitudinal view of a patient’s care. EHR’s are designed to share information with other healthcare organizations and providers, like other clinics, laboratories, imaging facilities, pharmacies, and specialists.


EHR data migration involves transferring data from one system to another, while data conversion focuses on transforming data into a compatible format for the new system. Migrating EHR data requires comprehensive planning, including extracting data from the legacy system, transforming it, and loading it into the new platform. Data conversion, a critical part of migration that involves changing the structure, format to ensure compatibility with the new EHR system. Successful data migration and conversion projects are essential for maintaining data integrity and seamless transitions between healthcare IT systems.


Transferring data from one Electronic Health Record (EHR) system to another is complex and requires meticulous planning to make sure the data remains complete, accurate and secure. The process usually involves multiple steps, including a preparation phase, mapping, conversion and validation of the data within the new EHR. It is often advised to consult with healthcare data experts who specialize in data migration to ensure the transition goes smoothly.


EHR Conversion is the process of moving patient and health data from one EHR system to another or from paper records into an EHR system. This process involves more than just transferring data elements, it also includes transforming the data into a usable format for the new system, ensuring that all important information is accurately and securely carried over into the new system. The primary aim is to enhance clinical operations, improve patient care and meet evolving regulatory requirements.


Best practices for healthcare data conversion projects include ensuring data integrity and accuracy by thoroughly mapping and validating data before conversion. It’s essential to use secure, HIPAA-compliant tools to protect sensitive patient information during the process. Testing converted data in the target system, performing quality checks, and working with experienced vendors are crucial to minimize errors and downtime. Proper documentation and staff training ensure a smooth transition and ongoing data management efficiency.

Not necessarily. And most likely not at all. Most organizations choose to migrate only recent, active patient data (typically 2-5 years) to keep their new system fast and uncluttered. Older records can be stored in KeenaArchive for compliance and access when needed. We help you determine the right strategy based on your specialty, patient population and regulatory requirements.
