Overview

What this migration involves

Bp Premier is a clinical practice management system built for Australian and New Zealand healthcare providers — it stores patient demographics, clinical notes, prescriptions, Medicare billing records, appointment book entries, and My Health Record integration. HubSpot is a CRM that models contacts, companies, deals, and tickets with a lifecycle-stage property and an association graph. The migration from Bp Premier to HubSpot is a vertical-to-horizontal move: the clinical data model has no direct equivalent in HubSpot, so FlitStack AI maps patient-contact records to HubSpot contacts, referring practitioner companies to HubSpot companies, and appointment timestamps to HubSpot engagement records. Medicare card numbers, individual healthcare identifiers (IHI), and clinical flag fields migrate as custom contact properties. Workflows, Medicare billing rules, e-prescribing logic, and My Health Record integration do not transfer — those are destination-side configuration decisions. The migration runs via Bp Premier's structured export API, transforms records against HubSpot's property schema, and loads via HubSpot's Contacts API and import pipeline with a 24–48 hour delta pickup window capturing any records modified during cutover.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

Bp Premier

What's pushing teams away

  • The Windows server-based architecture requires dedicated IT infrastructure and manual patching, which smaller practices find burdensome compared to cloud-native alternatives.
  • Known issues in certain Bp Premier versions, including MySL date-created quirks and callstack alerts, cause frustration when support cannot resolve them quickly.
  • No publicly documented REST API limits external integrations, making Bp Premier difficult to connect with modern healthcare analytics, patient portals, or automated workflows.
  • Transitioning between Bp Premier versions (e.g., moving to Orchid) requires a full reinstall and data migration, creating significant downtime risk for practices.
  • Practices migrating to cloud-first platforms like Epic or ModMed report that the absence of a modern API makes automated data portability difficult and vendor-dependent.

Choosing

HubSpot

What's pulling them in

  • Lowest barrier to entry of any major CRM — the free tier with unlimited contacts lets teams validate fit before committing to a paid plan, according to G2 and Capterra reviewers.
  • Native integration between the CRM and sales engagement tools (sequences, email tracking, dialer) means no separate sync configuration, a theme across G2 Sales Hub reviews.
  • Pipeline visualization, deal tracking, and automated workflows are consistently praised as intuitive and easy to set up without developer involvement.
  • Strong onboarding for new team members — reviewers on Capterra and G2 highlight how quickly new reps become productive without formal training.
  • The HubSpot platform ecosystem (Marketing, Sales, Service, CMS hubs) allows growing companies to consolidate tools without building new integrations.

Object mapping

How Bp Premier objects map to HubSpot

Each row shows how a Bp Premier object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.

Bp Premier

Patient Record

maps to

HubSpot

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier patient demographics including name, date of birth, address, phone number, Medicare card number, and Individual Healthcare Identifier (IHI) map directly to HubSpot contact properties. Clinical notes and prescription history do not have a native equivalent in HubSpot's contact model, so these fields migrate as custom long-text properties or engagement notes to preserve the clinical context within each contact record.

Bp Premier

Patient Record — Referring Practitioner Link

maps to

HubSpot

Contact / Company Association

many:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier stores a referring practitioner linked to the patient record. In HubSpot, the referring practitioner becomes a contact record (or company if a practice entity) associated via a referral-type label. Referral letter metadata and expiry dates migrate as custom contact properties.

Bp Premier

Appointment Book Entry

maps to

HubSpot

Engagement (Meeting / Call)

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier appointment records contain provider, start and end time, appointment type, status, and bulk-billing flag fields that map to HubSpot engagement records (meetings or calls). The bulk-billing flag and provider ID have no native equivalent in HubSpot engagements, so these values migrate as custom engagement properties to preserve billing context and owner assignment for each appointment record.

Bp Premier

Clinical Note

maps to

HubSpot

HubSpot Engagement Note / Custom Property

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier clinical notes are free-text with clinical author and timestamp. HubSpot has no clinical note equivalent — we migrate notes as HubSpot engagement notes or as a custom long-text property on the contact, with original author preserved as a property value. Practices should review whether clinical notes belong in a CRM at all given privacy requirements.

Bp Premier

Prescription Record

maps to

HubSpot

Custom Object / Custom Contact Property

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier prescription data (medication name, dosage, prescriber, date) has no HubSpot native equivalent. We migrate prescriptions as a custom object in HubSpot Enterprise or as a structured custom property on the contact record. Prescribers link back to practitioner contact records by email match.

Bp Premier

Medicare / Billing Record

maps to

HubSpot

Custom Contact Property

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier stores bulk-billing status, MBS item codes, and healthcare card details per encounter. HubSpot has no billing object. We migrate the most recent billing status as custom properties on the contact (Bulk_Billing_Status__c, Healthcare_Card__c, Last_MBS_Item__c). Historical MBS line items require a custom object.

Bp Premier

Individual Healthcare Identifier (IHI)

maps to

HubSpot

Custom Contact Property

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier records each patient's IHI — Australia's unique health identifier. HubSpot has no native healthcare identifier field. We migrate IHI as a custom contact property (IHI__c) and flag it as a sensitive field requiring restricted access in HubSpot's sharing settings.

Bp Premier

Medicare Card Number

maps to

HubSpot

Custom Contact Property

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier Medicare card numbers including the Individual Reference Number (IRN) map to a custom HubSpot contact property called Medicare_Card_Number__c. Medicare card expiry dates migrate as a companion custom date property (Medicare_Card_Expiry__c) to support renewal tracking workflows in HubSpot, allowing practices to set up automated reminders for card renewals before they expire.

Bp Premier

Bp Premier User / Practitioner

maps to

HubSpot

HubSpot User / Owner

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier practitioner and staff records map to HubSpot users by email match. Practitioners who are not HubSpot users become contact records instead of owners. Unmatched practitioners are flagged before migration so the practice can create HubSpot user accounts or assign a fallback owner.

Bp Premier

My Health Record Status

maps to

HubSpot

Custom Contact Property

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier tracks My Health Record opt-in status per patient. This migrates as a custom pick-list property (My_Health_Record_Status__c) on the contact record. The My Health Record integration itself — connecting to the HI Service — must be reconfigured as a HubSpot-connected app or third-party integration post-migration.

Bp Premier

Document / Attachment (referral letters, pathology results)

maps to

HubSpot

HubSpot Files

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier file attachments (referral letters, pathology reports, consent forms) linked to patient records re-upload to HubSpot Files associated with the contact record. File size limits and HubSpot's storage quotas apply — large imaging files may require external storage with a link stored in HubSpot.

Bp Premier

Bp Premier Extension Data (eRx, Medicare Easyclaim)

maps to

HubSpot

Custom Object / Custom Property

1:1
Fully supported

Bp Premier e-prescribing (eRx) and Medicare Easyclaim transaction records are extension-layer data with no HubSpot equivalent. We export the last transaction reference and current prescription channel as custom contact properties. The active e-prescribing integration must be rebuilt on the HubSpot side with the relevant provider.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Medicare card numbers and IHI must be stored as restricted custom properties

    Bp Premier stores Medicare card numbers with IRN and individual healthcare identifiers (IHI) on every patient record. HubSpot has no native healthcare identifier field — we create custom properties (Medicare_Card_Number__c, IHI__c) but these are sensitive under the Australian Privacy Act. Practices must configure HubSpot's field-level visibility restrictions so only authorised staff can view or export these fields. Failure to restrict these fields creates a compliance exposure that did not exist in Bp Premier's on-premise model.

  • Clinical notes and prescription history have no native HubSpot home

    Bp Premier clinical notes, prescription records, and pathology results are structured clinical data attached to the patient record. HubSpot's contact record supports engagement notes and custom long-text fields, but there is no clinical-note object with authorship and timestamp metadata standards. We migrate the most recent clinical note and prescription summary as custom contact properties — full clinical history requires a HubSpot custom object (Enterprise only) or an external clinical data store linked from HubSpot. Practices should determine whether clinical notes belong in a CRM at all given patient privacy obligations.

  • My Health Record integration does not migrate — it must be rebuilt

    Bp Premier's My Health Record integration connects directly to the Australian Digital Health Agency's HI Service using the practice's NASH certificate and HPI-O number. HubSpot has no native My Health Record connector. We preserve the My Health Record opt-in status as a contact property, but the live integration — allowing the practice to view and upload records — must be re-established as a HubSpot-connected application or third-party middleware after migration. The HPI-O and NASH certificate details are preserved in the migration audit log for reconfiguration.

  • Bp Premier appointment book has no HubSpot deal or pipeline equivalent

    Bp Premier's appointment book is a clinical scheduling tool — appointments are not deals, they are clinical encounters with a billing outcome (bulk-billed, privately billed, or a mix of MBS items). HubSpot deals model sales pipeline stages, not clinical encounter types. We map appointment records to HubSpot engagements with custom billing flags, but practices that track billing outcomes per appointment need a custom object mapping appointment records with MBS item codes and billing status. This schema must be designed before migration or added as a post-migration HubSpot custom object.

  • Referring practitioner data collapses to one primary association

    Bp Premier allows multiple referring practitioners and allied health providers to be linked to a single patient record simultaneously. HubSpot's contact model links one primary company (the practice) and allows secondary associations, but multi-provider linkage requires HubSpot's association labels or a custom junction object. We map the most recent referring practitioner as the primary association and surface others as secondary company associations with referral-type labels. Practices with complex multi-provider referral networks should design the association model before migration.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Bp Premier to HubSpot data migration

  1. Export Bp Premier patient and appointment data via structured API export

    FlitStack AI initiates a structured export from Bp Premier using the platform's patient record export API, pulling demographics, Medicare details, IHI, appointment history, referral links, and the most recent clinical note per patient. Bp Premier's export operates on a per-record or bulk basis — we run it in batches to avoid server-side performance impact on the practice during business hours. Export files are validated for completeness against Bp Premier's record count before transformation begins.

  2. Design HubSpot custom properties and contact schema for clinical data

    Before data loads, FlitStack AI creates the custom HubSpot contact properties needed for Medicare card numbers, IHI, bulk-billing status, My Health Record status, referral expiry dates, and clinical note summaries. HubSpot field-type selection (pick-list, date, boolean, number) matches the source data types. Field-level visibility restrictions are configured for sensitive healthcare identifiers. The custom object schema for appointment billing data is set up if the practice requires MBS item tracking.

  3. Resolve practitioner records and owner mapping by email

    Bp Premier practitioner and staff records are matched to HubSpot users by email address. Practitioners without a HubSpot user account are created as HubSpot contacts with a practitioner-type label. Unmatched practitioners (no email in Bp Premier or no HubSpot account) are flagged in a pre-migration report so the practice can either create HubSpot user accounts or assign those records to a fallback HubSpot owner before the migration runs.

  4. Run sample migration with field-level diff on 100–500 patient records

    A representative sample of patient records — including records with Medicare cards, healthcare cards, referrals, and appointments — migrates first. FlitStack AI generates a field-level diff showing source value versus HubSpot property value for every mapped field, including custom properties. The practice reviews the diff to verify Medicare number mapping, IHI preservation, referral associations, and appointment timestamps before the full migration commits.

  5. Execute full migration with delta-pickup window and audit log

    Full patient record migration runs against HubSpot. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any patient records created or updated in Bp Premier during the cutover. FlitStack AI's audit log records every contact created, property value set, and association established. One-click rollback is available if the reconciliation report shows record counts or property values outside agreed tolerances. Post-migration, the practice receives a data completeness report comparing Bp Premier record counts to HubSpot contact counts by record type.

Source

Strengths

  • Purpose-built for Australian and New Zealand healthcare regulation with Medicare and NASH certificate support.
  • On-premise data residency gives practices direct control over patient data compliance.
  • Strong customer support reputation with a dedicated team based in Australia and New Zealand.
  • Integrated My Health Record, eRx, and PRODA connections without third-party middleware.
  • AI scribe integration (Lyrebird) directly embedded in the clinical workflow.

Weaknesses

  • No publicly documented REST API for programmatic data access or automated migration.
  • Windows server-based deployment requires dedicated infrastructure, IT management, and manual software updates.
  • Data portability is entirely dependent on vendor-provided export tools or direct database access.
  • Known version-specific bugs (e.g., MySL date-created behavior) require workarounds during data extraction.
  • No native cloud sync or SaaS delivery model limits remote access and multi-location support.

Destination

Strengths

  • Genuinely useful free CRM tier with no seat limit on contact records.
  • All-in-one sales engagement layer (sequences, email tracking, calling, dialer) embedded natively in the CRM, eliminating a separate integration.
  • Intuitive interface and fast onboarding for individual reps, per G2 and Capterra reviews.
  • Workflow automation triggers across contacts, deals, and tickets with a visual builder.
  • API coverage for all standard objects including custom objects at Enterprise tier.

Weaknesses

  • Pricing model is contact-based at the marketing layer — importing all records as marketing contacts can multiply the monthly bill by 4×.
  • Feature tier cliffs are frequent surprises: sequences, calling, advanced reporting, and quoting are all gated, often requiring plan upgrades mid-implementation.
  • Mandatory onboarding fees at Professional ($1,500) and Enterprise ($3,500) are not prominently disclosed on the pricing page.
  • API rate limits are restrictive for bulk migration — burst limits of 100-200 req/10sec and search endpoint limits of 4 req/sec require careful job queuing.
  • Custom objects, additional pipelines, and advanced forecasting are Enterprise-only, making cost projections difficult for growing teams.

Most Bp Premier to HubSpot migrations complete in 48–72 hours of clock time for practices with fewer than 10,000 patient records. Larger practices with 50,000+ records, multiple Bp Premier extensions (eRx, Medicare Easyclaim), or complex multi-provider referral networks extend to 7–14 days. The longest planning step is designing the HubSpot custom property schema for Medicare and clinical data fields before data loads.
