Troubleshooting CRM and EMR Data Discrepancies

This guide helps resolve data discrepancies between your CRM and EMR systems, including integration mapping errors, missing admissions, field mismatches, and duplicate records from step-down scenarios.

Common Symptoms

You may experience one or more of these issues:

  • CRM reports showing data mismatches with EMR

  • Integration mapping errors

  • Missing admissions in either system

  • Field mismatches between CRM and EMR records

  • Duplicate patient records due to step-down logic

  • Census reports not aligning between systems

Cause

Data discrepancies typically occur when CRM Intake Opportunities are not properly linked to corresponding EMR charts, or when step-down scenarios create multiple opportunities that aren't properly managed across both systems.

Solution

Follow these steps to systematically resolve CRM-EMR data discrepancies:

  1. Verify Patient-by-Patient Linking
    Check that each Intake Opportunity in your CRM is properly linked to the corresponding EMR chart. Review the census carefully to identify any unlinked records.

  2. Address Duplicate Intake Opportunities
    For patients with multiple Intake Opportunities:

    • Determine if they represent legitimate separate admissions

    • If duplicates exist, decide which opportunity should be kept and merge accordingly

    • Verify admission dates match between systems

  3. Handle Step-Down Scenarios
    When step-down scenarios create multiple opportunities but the patient declines:

    • Either discharge the declined opportunity in CRM with appropriate notes

    • Or create a corresponding chart in EMR and link it properly

    • Document the step-down situation clearly in patient notes

  4. Review Field Alignment
    Ensure critical fields (admission dates, discharge dates, patient status) match between CRM and EMR for all linked records.

  5. Request Backend Integration Review
    If systematic discrepancies persist after manual corrections, contact Dazos support for backend integration fixes to prevent ongoing synchronization issues.

Verification

After completing the above steps:

  • Run census reports in both CRM and EMR

  • Verify patient counts match between systems

  • Confirm all active patients have properly linked records

  • Check that discharge dates and statuses align correctly

When to Contact Support

Contact Dazos support if you experience:

  • Persistent integration mapping errors after manual corrections

  • Systematic data sync failures affecting multiple patients

  • Backend integration issues requiring technical intervention

  • Complex step-down scenarios requiring system configuration changes
