Overview

What this migration involves

NeoDeck Holdings operates a healthcare EHR and practice-management stack (NeoMed EHR, NeoBiller, Clinical Vault) whose data model centers on patients, providers, encounters, prescriptions, and insurance claims. Nutshell is a small-to-medium-business CRM built around People, Companies, Leads, and Deals with a JSON-RPC API and per-object custom fields on People, Companies, and Leads. These models share no native object equivalence — patient records have no direct CRM counterpart, facility hierarchies map loosely to Companies, and encounter-level clinical data requires Nutshell custom fields or Activity Notes. FlitStack AI extracts NeoDeck data via your API access or structured export, transforms it into Nutshell's People/Companies/Deals structure, creates custom fields for clinical attributes that lack CRM-native equivalents (allergies, diagnoses, insurance payers), and loads everything through Nutshell's API with a delta-pickup window capturing in-flight changes. Workflows, e-prescribing logic, and claim-processing rules have no Nutshell equivalent and must be rebuilt or handled outside the CRM. The migration requires careful mapping of clinical data to commercial CRM structures while preserving data integrity and audit trails.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

NeoDeck Holdings

What's pushing teams away

  • Healthcare focus means CRM-classified pages are misaligned — NeoDeck does not offer a general CRM product, so buyers seeking sales-CRM functionality should look elsewhere.
  • Regional focus on Puerto Rico/Caribbean limits suitability for practices expanding to mainland US or international markets where local-regulatory specialization is required.
  • No published pricing — every deal is sales-led, creating procurement friction vs. published-price EHR vendors.
  • Limited public API and integration documentation makes connecting NeoMed to lab systems, modern HL7-FHIR integrations, or analytics platforms harder than with API-first EHRs.
  • Smaller market footprint than mainstream EHRs (Epic, Cerner, Athenahealth, eClinicalWorks) means fewer third-party connectors and less community implementation knowledge.

Choosing

Nutshell logo

Nutshell

What's pulling them in

  • Lowest cost entry point among mid-market CRMs—Foundation plan starts at $13/user/month, making it accessible for teams validating CRM fit before committing.
  • Integrated sales automation and email sequencing on Pro plans without requiring a separate email marketing platform, per verified Capterra reviews.
  • Consistently praised for intuitive interface and fast onboarding, with case studies reporting 100% team adoption rates within initial deployment periods.
  • Strong customer support responsiveness cited across G2 reviews, with dedicated support tiers available on Enterprise plans.
  • Native integrations with WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and Slack reduce reliance on third-party middleware for common communication channels.

Object mapping

How NeoDeck Holdings objects map to Nutshell

Each row shows how a NeoDeck Holdings object lands in Nutshell, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

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

NeoDeck Holdings

Patient

maps to

Nutshell

Person

1:1
Fully supported

NeoDeck patient records map to Nutshell People. Fields like first name, last name, date of birth, phone, and address transfer directly. Clinical properties (allergies, blood type, insurance) require Nutshell custom fields since Nutshell has no native clinical attribute model on Person records.

NeoDeck Holdings

Patient.allergies

maps to

Nutshell

Person (custom field)

1:1
Fully supported

Allergy data stored in NeoDeck as structured text per patient has no Nutshell native field equivalent. FlitStack creates a custom multi-value or text field (Patient_Allergies__c) on the Person object to capture this information. The original allergen names and reaction descriptions are preserved verbatim during the transformation, ensuring clinical accuracy is maintained in the target system.

NeoDeck Holdings

Patient.diagnoses

maps to

Nutshell

Person (custom field)

1:1
Fully supported

ICD codes and diagnosis descriptions from NeoDesk encounter records are consolidated onto the Person record as a custom text or multi-select field (Diagnoses__c). Each unique diagnosis is appended as a semicolon-delimited value or separate row in a linked custom object.

NeoDeck Holdings

Patient.insurance

maps to

Nutshell

Person (custom fields) + Company

1:1
Fully supported

Insurance payer name from NeoDeck maps to a custom field on the Person record (Insurance_Payer__c). The payer organization is also created or matched to a Nutshell Company record representing the insurance carrier, enabling reporting by payer across the person portfolio.

NeoDeck Holdings

Provider

maps to

Nutshell

Person

1:1
Fully supported

NeoDeck providers (physicians, nurses, billing staff) map to Nutshell People with the Provider_Flag__c custom field set to true. Provider specialty, license number, and NPI are stored as custom fields on the Person record. Provider email is used for Nutshell user matching.

NeoDeck Holdings

Facility / Organization

maps to

Nutshell

Company

1:1
Fully supported

NeoDeck facilities (hospitals, clinics, private practices) map directly to Nutshell Companies. Company name, address, phone, and website transfer directly as standard fields. Facility license numbers and taxonomy codes are stored as custom Company fields (Facility_License__c, Taxonomy_Code__c), enabling compliance tracking and regulatory verification post-migration.

NeoDeck Holdings

Encounter

maps to

Nutshell

Activity (Note / Task)

1:1
Fully supported

NeoDeck clinical encounters (office visits, telemedicine sessions) have no direct Nutshell equivalent. Each encounter is stored as a Nutshell Note attached to the Person record, with encounter date, type (office, telehealth, urgent), and provider as note metadata. High-priority encounters become Nutshell Tasks.

NeoDeck Holdings

Prescription

maps to

Nutshell

Person (custom field)

1:1
Fully supported

Active prescriptions from NeoDeck are stored as a custom text field (Active_Medications__c) on the Person record, listing medication name, dosage, frequency, and prescribing provider. Historical prescriptions are appended to the Person's Notes section rather than stored as individual fields, preserving the complete medication history for reference.

NeoDeck Holdings

Insurance Claim

maps to

Nutshell

Deal

1:1
Fully supported

NeoDeck insurance claims map to Nutshell Deals. Claim number becomes the Deal name, claim amount maps to Deal value, and claim status (submitted, paid, denied, appealed) maps to Nutshell pipeline stage values. The related Patient person and Facility company are linked via Nutshell's standard Person/Company associations.

NeoDeck Holdings

NeoDeck User / Owner

maps to

Nutshell

Nutshell User (owner assignment)

1:1
Fully supported

NeoDeck user email addresses are matched against Nutshell user emails for owner assignment. Unmatched users are flagged before migration; your team either creates Nutshell accounts for them or assigns records to a fallback owner. No record lands without a valid Nutshell owner.

NeoDeck Holdings

Patient Portal Login / Access Record

maps to

Nutshell

Activity (Note)

1:1
Fully supported

NeoDeck patient portal access logs and login timestamps have no CRM equivalent in Nutshell. These records are not migrated as operational CRM data but are preserved as a separate custom data export file for compliance documentation, audit trail purposes, and regulatory requirements outside the standard CRM workflow.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Clinical encounter records have no native Nutshell object — they become Notes or Tasks

    NeoDeck encounter records (office visits, telemedicine sessions, lab visits) carry clinical context that Nutshell cannot represent structurally. There is no Nutshell equivalent of a clinical encounter object — appointments and visits cannot map to a native entity. FlitStack converts each NeoDeck encounter into a Nutshell Note attached to the corresponding Person record, with encounter date, type, and provider embedded in the note body. High-urgency or flagged encounters are converted to Nutshell Tasks with the patient as the related Person. This means encounter history is searchable in Nutshell as Notes but does not appear in Nutshell's standard Activity timeline views designed for sales activities.

  • Nutshell Deals do not support custom fields — clinical claim data must attach to Person records

    Nutshell's Deal object does not support custom fields, which constrains how insurance claim data from NeoDeck can be stored. NeoDeck insurance claims (with claim number, amount, status, and payer) map to Nutshell Deals for pipeline tracking, but payer names, insurance policy numbers, and authorization codes cannot be stored on the Deal itself. FlitStack resolves this by storing payer names on the related Person record (Insurance_Payer__c) and keeping claim-level metadata in the Deal name and stage. If your team needs claim-level detail visible on the Deal record, that information must be surfaced via a linked Note or managed outside Nutshell in a spreadsheet export.

  • NeoDeck API access is not publicly documented — export path determines migration timeline

    NeoDeck Holdings provides no publicly documented REST API for programmatic data extraction. The platform is a web application backed by a database; data access requires either a structured export from within the application (if the export feature is enabled for your account), a direct database query (if you have DB credentials and your contract permits access), or screen-scraping of exported reports. FlitStack begins every engagement with a scoping call to identify the available export path and any contractual constraints on data extraction. The chosen export method is the primary variable that determines scoping hours and whether the migration qualifies for the standard timeline or requires extended planning.

  • Patient consent and HIPAA obligations are not handled by the migration tool

    NeoDeck Holdings stores protected health information (PHI) subject to HIPAA. Nutshell is a general-purpose CRM with no HIPAA-specific controls, business associate agreements, or audit logging for PHI access. Migrating patient records (names, DOB, diagnoses, allergies, insurance information) from NeoDeck to Nutshell transfers data from a HIPAA-regulated environment to a standard commercial CRM. Your organization is responsible for determining whether this transfer is permissible under your HIPAA compliance program, including obtaining any required patient authorizations and executing a business associate agreement if Nutshell will receive PHI. FlitStack can migrate the data but does not provide HIPAA compliance advisory services.

  • Prescription and lab result data maps to freeform text fields with no structured retrieval

    NeoDeck stores prescription details (medication name, dosage, frequency, prescriber, pharmacy) and lab results (test name, result value, reference range, units) as structured clinical fields. Nutshell has no native field types for medication lists or lab result sets — these must be stored as custom text fields on the Person record. There is no way to retrieve individual prescriptions or lab values as separate records in Nutshell; they are concatenated into a single text value. This means a provider looking for a specific historical medication in Nutshell must search within a text block rather than query a structured field. FlitStack preserves the data completely but cannot create structured retrieval for fields that Nutshell does not support.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful NeoDeck Holdings to Nutshell data migration

  1. Identify the NeoDeck data export path and scope the record inventory

    FlitStack opens every engagement by determining how NeoDeck data can be extracted. We review your NeoDeck account's available export options (application-level export, direct DB access, or third-party report extraction), count the record volumes for patients, providers, facilities, encounters, prescriptions, and claims, and identify any contractual constraints on data extraction. This produces a scoping document that confirms which objects are migratable and which (such as audit logs and system configuration) are excluded.

  2. Define the Nutshell schema and create custom fields for clinical data

    Before any data moves, we define the Nutshell custom fields needed to receive clinical properties: Patient_Allergies__c, Diagnoses__c, Active_Medications__c, Insurance_Payer__c, Insurance_Policy_Number__c, Blood_Type__c, NPI__c, DEA_Number__c, Specialty__c, Facility_License__c, Taxonomy_Code__c, Created_Date_Source__c, and Source_System_ID__c. We deliver a setup plan specifying field types (text, date, multi-select) and which Nutshell object each field belongs to. We also configure the Nutshell Deal pipeline stages to accommodate insurance claim statuses (Submitted, Paid, Denied, Appealed) before validation runs.

  3. Extract, transform, and load patient, provider, and facility records into Nutshell People and Companies

    FlitStack extracts patient, provider, and facility records from NeoDeck in the format identified during scoping, transforms them into Nutshell Person and Company records, and loads them via the Nutshell JSON-RPC API. Email addresses are used to match providers to Nutshell users for owner assignment. NeoDeck's patient ID is stored as Source_System_ID__c on every record for traceability. Any NeoDeck records that cannot be matched to a Nutshell user for ownership are flagged before the full load, giving your team a chance to provision accounts or assign fallback owners.

  4. Run a sample migration and generate a field-level diff for verification

    A representative sample — typically 100–500 records spanning patients, providers, facilities, and a subset of encounters and claims — migrates first. FlitStack generates a field-level diff between the source NeoDeck export and the resulting Nutshell records so you can verify that allergy text, diagnosis codes, insurance fields, and encounter Notes appear correctly in Nutshell. This is the point at which you confirm that the clinical-to-Note conversion for encounters meets your team's expectations before the full run commits.

  5. Execute full migration with delta-pickup and post-migration validation

    The full record set loads into Nutshell. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any new or modified patient records, prescriptions, or claims created in NeoDeck during the cutover. FlitStack produces a reconciliation report comparing record counts, field-population rates, and owner-assignment percentages against the source export. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation reveals unexpected gaps. We also deliver a compliance data map showing where each NeoDeck field landed in Nutshell, which is critical documentation if your HIPAA review requires it.

Most NeoDeck-to-Nutshell migrations complete within 48–72 hours of clock time for setups under 25,000 total records. The critical variable is the NeoDeck export path: if your account supports application-level export, scoping takes 1–2 days; if direct database access is required, planning extends to 5–7 days. Larger setups with 100,000+ records or complex multi-object linkages (encounter-to-patient, claim-to-facility) extend to 7–10 days. The Nutshell API load rate typically does not constrain the migration — the source extraction phase is the rate-limiting step.
