Oracle Cerner, the nation’s second-largest hospital electronic health record (EHR) vendor, is growing.
Harmony Healthcare IT has in-depth experience with Cerner Millennium® modules, data types, and third-party software. Legacy data management with HealthData Platform™ supports migrations to and from Oracle Cerner and other EHR vendor solutions.

Healthcare providers in merger and acquisition mode will need to rationalize its technology to select a go-forward EHR application. Typically, two years of clinical data is converted 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 an active archive like HealthData Archiver® . Through secure Single Sign-On capabilities from Oracle Cerner or another go-forward EHR, the archived clinical data is then available to clinicians at time of care.

When a decision is made to migrate to Oracle Cerner or another new go-forward EHR, developing strategy for legacy data is a best practice. Here are three steps to help you successfully convert to a new EHR and ensure your legacy data is in sync.
It is vital to know the details of source systems you are targeting for retirement when switching EHRs. This inventory tool will log legacy system details to help scope the required levels of effort for data extraction, migration and retention. You can also identify contract renewal dates, system static dates and A/R wind down plans to prioritize the order in which systems will be targeted for decommission dates.
It is important to have a plan for what data will be migrated to Oracle Cerner (or any other go-forward EHR) and what data will need to be retained and accessed in an archive solution. This tool can help guide your EHR change management planning and inform system decommissioning and data archive initiatives.
Consider the most important factors in choosing your partner, such as security posture, product features, system experience, and project management philosophy. This RFP template can help inform your request for information or proposal solicitation for a vendor to secure your records long term.
