Develop a Strategy for Legacy Data
Implementing a legacy data strategy is best practice when migrating to a future-oriented EHR (NextGen or others). Healthcare providers in merger and acquisition mode must rationalize technology to select a future-oriented EHR application.
- Take a System Inventory
Capture the details of the source systems you plan to retire. Our inventory tool logs legacy system details to help scope data extraction, migration and retention. This includes identifying contract renewal dates, system static dates, and A/R wind-down plans to prioritize the order of system decommissioning. - Identify Active and Archive Data
Determine which data will be migrated and which will be archived. Our experts can help guide your EHR change management planning and inform system decommissioning and data archive initiatives.
Typically, we convert one to two years of clinical data to the selected EHR. The rest of the clinical data—along with historical enterprise resource planning (ERP), revenue cycle, and other system data—is extracted and consolidated into our active archive, HealthData Archiver®. The archived data is available to clinicians at time of care through secure Single Sign-On capabilities.
Our Team Will Work With You to:
- Manage data from NextGen Enterprise, Ambient Assist, Mobile, Virtual Visits, or Office SaaS.
- Extract, convert, and archive data from NextGen and/or other legacy EHRs to ensure the accessibility and compliance of clinical, financial, and business records.
- Convert NextGen-generated documents and screeners in HighEdit, including developmental screenings for children.
- Ensure MIDMARK or Welch Allyn Spirometry images are accessible.
- Include dental data such as an odontogram.
- Customize the archive by encounter records rather than chronologically.

Tackling Complex Data Images: AltaMed
NextGen and the vendor have a hard-coded dental module for dentograms. The vendors could not extract the data for us, but Harmony was able to replicate the images. That was a huge win for our dental providers.
Emmet Jacobs
IT Applications Director, AltaMed
We came across a problem statement in the extraction process. NexGen, the vendor and their product have a hard coded dental module which is the dentagrams or images of the jaw line, the teeth and then the markings that the providers could be marking if they find anomalies or issues with the teeth or cup lines. Harmony was able to engage their Engineering Team and replicate the images that were hard coded in. Next, the vendors themselves could not extract the data for us. So, that was a huge win for our providers to have a seamless transition and those dentagrams or images available within Harmony due to the success of their engineers that redesigned successfully and had the data available.
