Migrated, and reconciled first.

EHR and practice-management moves where the reconciliation happens before the cutover, not after the complaints.

The actual problem

Every failed migration was signed off as complete.

Migrations do not usually fail loudly. They fail as a slow accumulation of records that came across subtly wrong, discovered months later by the people trying to bill against them.

What we run

The whole job, not the convenient half.

Anyone can take the easy part. The value is in owning what happens when something does not fit the process, which is where most outsourcing arrangements quietly hand the work back.

Data audit

What you actually have, including the parts of it that were already wrong.

Mapping

Field by field, with the judgement calls written down and agreed rather than made silently.

Reconciliation

Counts and values checked against source before anybody signs anything.

Rehearsal

A full dry run against real data, because the first real attempt should not be the first attempt.

Cutover plan

Sequenced, with a rollback that has been tested rather than assumed.

Post-cutover support

We stay through the first billing cycle, which is when the truth arrives.

A migration is proven by a billing cycle, not by a completion email.

How it starts

Nobody hands this over on day one.

We take work in stages, each with a written definition of done and a clean rollback point. If we are wrong about something, you find out early.

Weeks 1–3

Audit

Source data profiled honestly, including existing quality problems you may not know about.

Weeks 4–7

Map and rehearse

Full dry run, reconciled, with the gaps listed and resolved.

Week 8

Cutover

Sequenced, scheduled, and reversible.

Weeks 9–12

Stay through the first cycle

Because a migration is proven by a billing cycle, not by a completion email.

The people doing your work have names and a shift.

You get the same team, in your working hours, with a named owner per queue. Not a ticket pool that rotates every quarter.

Straight answers

System migration, specifically.

The questions that come up on every first call about this one.

How long does a migration take?
Typically a few months, and most of that is audit and rehearsal rather than the move itself. Anyone quoting a two-week EHR migration is quoting for the export, not the reconciliation.
What about historical data?
We will tell you honestly what is worth bringing and what is better archived. Migrating everything is usually a way to move existing mess into a more expensive system.
Can you migrate us and then run the billing?
Yes, and it is a good combination, the team that reconciled the data is the team that has to bill against it, which concentrates the mind.
