EHR Migration without the mayhem

Migration designed for clinical readiness. We transfer your patient data with 99% completeness and 98% availability at point of care, so your clinicians walk into go-live ready to deliver care.

Designed for clinical readiness

Clean data. Seamless transitions. Clinical confidence.

IKS Health Migrate goes further than moving records from one system to another. We transform raw transferred data into validated, clinically organized information that’s immediately usable by care teams. The result is accelerated adoption with minimal disruption to your providers, your coders, and your patients.

Clinical governance and SOP sign-off

Every migration protocol is defined with your clinical leads and signed off before extraction begins.

Each data element checked for accuracy

Corrections happen in-flight as part of our QA process, not flagged for someone else to fix after go-live.

Clinically trained data teams

Structured, protocol-driven migration delivered by people who understand how clinical workflows actually run.

EHR-agnostic implementation

Adaptable to any legacy system or target environment, from a single specialty practice to a full enterprise consolidation.

Health systems that trusted IKS Migrate at the most consequential moment of their EHR journey.

Epic Migration

65,387 pregnancy records transferred with precision

A leading multi-hospital health system approaching Epic go-live needed to transfer pregnancy records for over 65,000 patients with zero margin for error. IKS Migrate triaged active pregnancy patients first, transformed unstructured records into structured fields, and used dual-EHR verification to eliminate duplicates.

Northeast Academic System

45,000 clinician hours saved on a $700M Epic transition

A large integrated health system in the Northeast with a teaching association and major medical school invested over $700M to migrate to Epic across the enterprise. IKS Migrate handled clinical data validation end to end, freeing physicians to focus on patient care through the transition.

Complete and successful data migration with IKS Health Migrate

Most migrations land in 8 to 20 weeks. The variable is rarely the data. Project duration depends on data volume, source complexity, and the number of legacy systems involved.

EHR Data Migration FAQs

What exactly does EHR data migration involve?

EHR data migration is the structured transfer of patient data and clinical records from one electronic health record system to another. A complete migration covers structured fields like demographics, allergies, immunizations, problem lists, labs, imaging, and coding data, alongside unstructured content like clinical notes, attachments, and free-text histories. The goal is not just to move data but to deliver it in a format that clinicians and coders can use immediately on go-live day.

How does IKS Health make sure the migration process is smooth?

Every data set we transfer is governed by clinical protocols that we establish and your team signs off on before extraction begins. Each data element is checked for accuracy, and corrections are made as needed. We convert unstructured data into discrete, searchable fields so providers find what they need in the right place inside the new EHR. We also run dual-EHR verification before go-live, so your clinicians aren’t catching defects in production.

Which EHRs do you migrate from and to?

IKS Migrate is system-agnostic. We’ve executed migrations across Epic, Oracle Health (Cerner), Athena, Allscripts, NextGen, eClinicalWorks, and many others. The vast majority of our work involves moves to or between major enterprise EHRs, but we also support migrations from smaller specialty platforms and home-grown systems.

Can IKS Migrate handle a multi-entity consolidation or M&A scenario?

Most migrations complete in 8 to 20 weeks. Duration depends on the volume of historical data, the complexity and number of source systems, and the destination EHR’s ingestion requirements. The single biggest accelerator is early stakeholder alignment on what’s in scope. We help you get that alignment right in the first two weeks.
