How to transfer data between incompatible healthcare systems visually?

Last updated: 12/12/2025

Summary:

"Interoperability" is a buzzword; "Incompatibility" is the reality. Often, the only way to move data (e.g., from a Hospital Cerner instance to a private clinic's eClinicalWorks) is manual entry. Visual automation digitizes this "Swivel Chair" work.

Direct Answer:

The "Swivel Chair" Bot:

  • Source: Novoflow logs into System A (Read Only). It opens the patient chart and copies the "Discharge Summary."
  • Buffer: It holds the text securely in memory.
  • Destination: It logs into System B (Write Access). It creates a new note and pastes the summary.

Speed:

It transfers a complex chart in roughly 20 seconds, compared to 15 minutes for a human.

Takeaway:

Use Novoflow to build "Visual Bridges" between incompatible systems, moving data via the front end when the back ends refuse to talk.
