When a healthcare organization moves on from an EMR or practice management system, the clinical work may stop happening in that platform — but the responsibility to retain, access, and produce historical records does not go away.

Legacy systems often stay online for one reason: the patient, clinical, financial, and compliance data locked inside. But keeping those systems alive can create ongoing costs, including maintenance contracts, server infrastructure, security patching, and staff time spent supporting technology that is no longer actively used.

MDemr is hosting a live webinar focused on how healthcare organizations can break that dependency by moving legacy data into a dedicated archive.

Webinar: MDemr Archive — Keep Your Records Compliant

This session will walk through why a dedicated EMR archive matters, what record retention can require after a system has been decommissioned, and how the right archival strategy can help organizations shut down legacy platforms while preserving secure, searchable access to the records they still need.

Attendees will also see a live demonstration of MDemr Archive, including patient search, document retrieval, lab results, and patient chart export designed to support compliance and audit requests.

What You’ll Learn

• Why retired EMR and practice management systems can still carry retention, audit, and clinical reference obligations
• How legacy platforms may continue to create unnecessary cost and security exposure
• How a FHIR-based archive can preserve access to historical data while helping eliminate outdated infrastructure
• What secure, searchable, audit-ready record access can look like in practice
• How MDemr Archive supports patient search, document retrieval, lab results, and full chart export

For CHUG members evaluating legacy system retirement, EMR migration, data retention, or long-term compliance planning, this webinar may be a useful resource to review.

Bring your questions. The MDemr team will be answering attendee questions live.

I wanted to reach out to see if there are any athenaPractice / athenaFlow users here who would be interested in connecting around custom HTML encounter forms and other custom content.

After attending the in-person event last month in Atlanta for athenaPractice / athenaFlow users I discovered many practices were facing identical issues and desired features that are implemented in the clinical content I create for our practice.

For several months, I’ve been developing an online application specifically for athenaPractice / athenaFlow that delivers pre-made HTML Encounter Forms to practices that want advanced functionality and features that go well above what’s available out of the box. I’ve had some great conversations with several individuals and a few practices and have received really encouraging feedback.

I’m looking to see if there is interest in an application like this, connect with practices who are interested about improving their clinical workflows, and would love to hear your thoughts, share what I’ve built, and explore how this could benefit your practice.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to reply here or reach out to me directly.
