Archive Retired Healthcare Data Systems: Pitfalls to Avoid

There’s a strange give and take happening in healthcare, and it has to do with the technology systems organizations use to store and access patient data and more.

Some of these legacy systems are astronomically expensive by today’s standards, making them obsolete and setting up a clear need for transition. However, many healthcare organizations are afraid to make such a change for fear of losing the patient data stored within the soon-to-be retired system.

In addition, transitions can be overly complex, adding another burden to teams already spread thin in the wake of COVID-19 and increasing patient expectations.

Here we talk with Norman Efroymson, VP of Micro-Office Systems (a Division of Medsphere) about key strategies for leveraging a straightforward, affordable solution, and how to avoid common pitfalls when transitioning away from overly expensive solutions.
