It's easy to convert and own your data!   ACC CathPCI participants using the CathPCI online data collection tool who wish to convert to heartbase have been given an easy to use process. 

Beginning this week, online participants will see an additional link on the left navigation of the "Data" page, "Data Migration (v4.0)".  This link will allow hospitals to migrate their data entered into the online data collection tool into a file that can easily be imported into heartbase.  When hospitals click on the link, there are directions that tell users how to create the migration file. Once you have created this file, it is simple to import it into heartbase.

Please note that you should migrate data at the beginning or the end of a quarter. You can only use one source to submit your data to the CathPCI Registry, either heartbase or the CathPCI Registry online data collection tool. This process will give you a clean break from the online data collection software.
