Does anyone know in what form the data is transferred back to you. One would think that reinstalling AC on a local server and reviving from a backup(from the cloud version, that maybe AC can provide) would be possible. Or if you decide to go with another EMR , if your data is provided to you, is it useful to start the new EMR.
Lots of questions, HOPEFULLY answers can be provided.
I would imagine they just send you the ENC file as if you were restoring/installing AC to a new server. They would also need to credential whatever new machine you are moving to. Once restored, AC uses standard MS SQL Server.
The new EMR/EHR company can import the data from there provided they have the ability to work with SQL. If not, perhaps a third party IT person like JamesNT can transfer the data to your new EHR. MS SQL and Oracle DB are the two biggest database engines in use today. So it shouldn't be too hard to find someone that can import the data.
