Healthcare Merger Technology Integration

A comprehensive system for merging Electronic Health Records (EHR) and analyzing imaging contracts during healthcare practice acquisitions.

Features

EHR Integration

• Merges patient data from multiple practice management systems
• Intelligent patient matching using email, DOB, and name combinations
• Preserves data provenance and prevents data loss
• Generates detailed match reports and consolidated patient records

Contract Analysis

• Parses DOCX contract documents
• Extracts key commercial terms (fees, SLAs, termination clauses)
• Compares multiple vendor contracts with scoring algorithm
• Provides merger recommendations based on financial and technical factors
