We did the upgrade on 5/14/24. Below is summary of our experience:
1. Upgrade itself was not bad and very typical. 2. After upgrade we faced with the need to map and migrate over 2500 Meds and allergiies from Lexi to First Data Bank. 3. We are doing it patient by patient but it adds over an hour to our everyday workflow for the patients scheduled for a given day. 4. And yes once the migration is done for one case it will not pop up anymore for other patients
5. Doing the upgrade now rather than waiting would save scrambling towards June 30, 2024 milestone date, if AC holds tight the deadline. 6. There is an AC video tutorial and a PDF file tutorial.
7. Even if AC does the upgrade for the server and the clients, not sure they will map thousands of meds and allergiesfor a clinic, that activity may still say with the clinic staff.
