Overview

Are you replacing your computer system? What will happen to all of your vital data? How will you extract the data from your legacy system? Will your new system even be able to import the data you need?

We are experts in the field of medical data conversions. We will work with you and the vendor of your new system to analyze your legacy data, extract, and convert to a format that can be imported into your new database.

We use the latest data mining tools to extract and convert data from any system to any system. If your new system does not import vital data, we can provide you with a database customized to your needs. Data conversions are not a plug-and-play process; many factors must be considered. We have helped hundreds of hospitals migrate millions of records of data from one system to another. Let our experience help you find the best solution for your data migration project.

Process

In any data migration, there are three steps:

• Extract data from the legacy system
• Transform the data to vendor's file specifications
• Import the data into the new system or database.

The data conversions services purchased from system vendors typically only include one of these steps. Korchek's conversion process is a turn-key solution.

Korchek will work with your hospital to:

• Establish connectivity to your legacy system
• Extract data from your legacy system
• Develop a repeatable process to transform that data into vendor's file specifications
• Perform a complete "mock" or test conversion of the data prior to the activation of your new system
• Make changes and revisions to the process until you are satisfied with the results
• Schedule and plan a final extraction and conversion with the aim of minimizing downtime while the data is migrated

Custom Solutions

When your new system vendor does not provide a process to import all of your data from your old system, you could be left supporting your old system to meet regulations. Korchek can develop custom databases and user interfaces to store and maintain these records. Our experience in the industry gives us an intimate understanding of what health care professionals need as end-users.
