Data migration: migrating from Blueprint

A full breakdown of what Suno migrates from Blueprint, what is not included, and how to prepare before your go-live date.

Written by Jay Sharma

Migrating from Blueprint moves your patient records, appointments, financial history, and clinical documentation into Suno before your go-live date. Blueprint has the most detailed financial migration of any system we support — this guide covers exactly what is and is not migrated, and what you need to do to prepare.


How Blueprint migration works

Blueprint migrations use an automated orchestrator that runs all steps in a single sequence. Your onboarding specialist initiates and monitors the full process.

As part of migration, any test patients or billing records entered in Suno during your onboarding setup phase are removed before go-live. This is expected — only your migrated production data will remain.

Note: Staff in Suno are linked to patients, appointments, and invoices by name. All active staff must have Suno accounts set up before migration runs.


What we migrate

Staff

  • Names, email addresses, job titles, qualifications, NPI numbers, and active or inactive status

  • Default clinic assignment

Patients

  • Demographics — name, date of birth, sex

  • Contact information — mobile, home, and work phone numbers; email address; and primary address

  • Patient status (Active, Inactive)

  • Health card number

  • Do-not-mail, do-not-text, and do-not-email flags

  • Preferred provider and preferred clinic

  • Referral source and referring physician

  • Emergency contact — name, relationship, and phone numbers

  • Patient tags and grouping

  • Patient documents — files attached to a patient in Blueprint are migrated and stored against the patient in Suno

Appointments

  • Date, start time, end time, clinic, assigned staff, and appointment type

  • Appointment status, description, and notes

  • Schedule blocks (personal and off-time events)

Products and pricing

Product type

What is included

Hearing aids

Manufacturer, model, retail price, cost, active status

Batteries

Description, battery size, quantity per pack, catalog number

Accessories

Description, category, vendor price, retail price, active status

Services

Name, service group, retail price, active status

Dispensed devices and accessories

  • Hearing aids — manufacturer, model, serial number, ear, color, and size

  • Purchase date, order date, received date, and delivery date

  • Warranty expiry, loss and damage warranty expiry, service plan name, and service plan expiry

  • Device status and notes; most recent active device per ear automatically flagged

  • Dispensed accessories — domes, receivers, earmolds, and tubes attached to a patient are migrated alongside their hearing aids

Financial records

Blueprint tracks all financial record types separately. We migrate each of the following:

  • Invoices — date, clinic, provider, total, and tax

  • Invoice status — zero-balance invoices marked Completed; outstanding invoices marked Ready to Bill

  • Line items — products and services, with price, quantity, cost, tax, discount, ear side, and serial number

  • Patient payments and insurance payments

  • Patient credits and insurance credits (migrated as adjustments)

  • Patient refunds and insurance refunds

  • Returned invoice flag

Note: If your practice uses QuickBooks, financial migration data will need to be synced to QuickBooks separately after go-live. Your onboarding specialist will coordinate this.

Clinical documentation

  • Journal entries migrated as chart notes — with original entry date, author, and entry type

  • Deleted journal entries are not migrated

  • Notes linked to appointments where a matching appointment date exists

Insurance policies

  • US policies — insurer, member ID, group number, plan name, policyholder details, copay, deductible, and estimated benefit

  • Canadian policies — insurer name, policy number, ID number, and insurer type

Recalls and touchpoints

  • Blueprint recalls are migrated as Touchpoints in Suno — including recall date, type, and patient link

Clinic stock

  • Clinic stock devices — manufacturer, model, serial number, color, size, status, and cost

Administrative data

  • Referring physicians (name, NPI, phone, and address) and referral sources


What we do not migrate

  • Staff passwords — every staff member will have a new account setup in Suno

  • System configuration — workflow settings, custom templates, and report templates

  • Structured audiogram records — any audiogram information in journal notes is migrated as text in chart notes

  • Patient photos — not migrated from Blueprint

  • Insurance claim submission history — ERA/EOB files and clearinghouse records

  • Hearing aid programming data — fitting software files (e.g., Noah files)

  • Custom report definitions

  • Test and demo data — records entered in Suno during onboarding setup are removed as part of the migration process

  • Email and communication history


Before you begin

  1. Export your data from Blueprint — your onboarding specialist will provide the list of CSV files needed and guide you through the export process.

  2. Confirm all active staff have Suno accounts — Blueprint links patients, appointments, and invoices to staff by name.

  3. Confirm clinic names — let your specialist know if location names in Blueprint differ from what is set up in Suno.

  4. Note any test data entered in Suno during setup — this will be removed as part of the prelaunch process.

  5. Notify your team — staff will receive a Suno invite to set up their account; passwords do not transfer.
