The impact of EHR Migrations
EHR migrations are among the most complex data projects
in healthcare. They combine sensitive patient data, regulatory
requirements, clinical semantics, and operational risk.
Light-it helps digital health companies and provider
organizations migrate EHR data and build clinical integrations
with auditability, HIPAA alignment, and clinical continuity
built in from day one.

Where we apply these solutions
From early-stage digital health startups to established health systems, our solutions are built to fit the complexity of your environment.
EHR Data Migration
e help healthcare organizations move patient data between EHR platforms while preserving clinical meaning, referential integrity, and compliance.
Our migrations go beyond data transfer. We analyze source systems, define semantic mappings, transform data to fit the target model, validate results against operational metrics, and support post-migration stabilization.
Clinical Platform Integrations
Healthcare platforms don't operate in isolation. An EHR connects to, and depends on, a surrounding ecosystem of clinical and operational tools.
We design and build integrations that allow EHRs to exchange data reliably with adjacent systems, following interoperability standards where applicable and building custom connectors where needed.
Legacy System Decommissioning & Data Preservation
Many organizations need to shut down legacy EHR systems but can't lose the data they contain for regulatory, legal, or clinical continuity reasons.
We extract, transform, and archive legacy data into accessible, compliant formats that support ongoing needs without maintaining expensive legacy infrastructure. This often includes building lightweight read-only access layers or migrating historical data into the new primary system with appropriate flagging and segregation.
Data Quality, Validation & Reconciliation
Data quality isn't a final step. It's embedded throughout the migration and integration process.
Our validation work includes record count and field-level completeness checks, cross-entity referential integrity validation, reconciliation against known operational metrics, automated regression testing for downstream compatibility, and duplicate detection and MPI cleanup.
This is also available as a standalone engagement for organizations that need to assess data quality before committing to a migration.
Post-Migration Support & Stabilization
Migrations don't end at cutover. The 30–90 days after go-live are critical.
We provide structured post-migration support to monitor data accuracy in production, identify and remediate edge cases, validate that downstream systems are functioning correctly, and document the migration for audit and compliance purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Learn everything about us and the way we work
EHR migration timelines depend on data volume, source system complexity, and the number of connected integrations. Most mid-market EHR migrations run 8–20 weeks from discovery to post-migration stabilization. Projects involving legacy decommissioning, multi-site consolidation, or complex integration dependencies typically run longer. Discovery is where scope and timeline get defined.
Active data needed for immediate care, billing, and compliance migrates to the production EHR. Legacy historical data that isn't operationally active gets offloaded to a secure, searchable archive. This distinction — between active migration and archival preservation — is defined during the Discovery phase based on clinical and operational requirements.
All migration and integration work operates with least-privilege access, encryption at rest and in transit, comprehensive audit logging, and full data lineage from source to target. Migration workloads run in isolated cloud environments and temporary processing infrastructure is fully decommissioned after migration. We operate under BAA and align to HIPAA technical and administrative safeguards throughout.
Yes. Clinical platform integrations are a core part of our offering — as a standalone engagement or as part of a migration project. We've built integrations between EHRs and RCM platforms, billing systems, patient engagement tools, analytics platforms, and custom internal systems.
The 30–90 days after go-live are where edge cases surface. We provide structured post-migration support to monitor data accuracy, identify and remediate issues, and validate downstream systems. The migration isn't complete until production is stable.
