Data Continuing / Split / Removal

If your practice is relocating to a different physical location, there is generally nothing you need to do regarding preparing your financial and/or clinical data, beyond conducting a full backup before the move takes place.

Likewise, if your Business has changed hands, and the new Business entity is simply adopting all of the existing financial/clinical heritage and responsibilities, there is nothing you need to do to prepare your data.

The practice location remains the same, but the Business has changed hands, and the new Business entity wantes to clear the old financials, and start fresh.
The practice is splitting into two or more completely independent Businesses/Practices. In this instance:
- It is not possible to split financial data i.e. one practice must retain the financial heritage and continue to conduct business with it, and the other practice(s) must start fresh.
- Clinical data can be split into two or more independent patient databases.
  If your practice falls into any of these latter scenarios, you must contact MedicalDirector Customer Care for advice and assistance. This assistance may require you sending your patient/practice database to MedicalDirector for analysis/splitting, and this process can take some time. Please contact MedicalDirector several weeks in advance of your change-over date.
