Overview
Quanum Practice Management from Quest Diagnostics stores the complete operational data of a medical office: patient demographics, appointment schedules, insurance verifications, billing claims, lab order history, and referring provider records. Quest discontinued the product in 2023 and provided data exports in Microsoft Access database format and Continuity of Care Document (CCDA) format before the read-only cutoff date. Migrating that export into Salesforce Sales Cloud is not a direct object-to-object translation because Salesforce's standard data model — built around Accounts, Contacts, Leads, and Opportunities — has no native concept of patient records, insurance eligibility, or clinical scheduling. FlitStack AI maps Quanum's patient records to Salesforce Contacts, appointment slots to Tasks and Events, insurance carrier data to custom fields on Account and Contact objects, and creates custom objects for billing claims and encounter notes. We handle the Microsoft Access schema extraction, transform the flat export into Salesforce's relational structure, and preserve the original CCDAs as Salesforce Files attached to the relevant Contact records. Workflows, practice-specific scheduling rules, and billing automation do not migrate — those must be rebuilt in Salesforce's Flow tool or documented for your implementation team. We sequence the migration so that parent records (facilities, insurance carriers) load before child records (patients, appointments) so foreign-key relationships resolve correctly. A delta-pickup window captures any records modified between the export date and go-live.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Quanum Practice Management object lands in Salesforce Sales Cloud, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Quanum Practice Management
Patient Record
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact
1:1Quanum patient records map directly to Salesforce Contacts using the patient's medical record number as an external identifier. First name, last name, date of birth, address, phone, and email transfer as standard Contact fields. The Quanum Patient_ID becomes Source_System_ID__c for deduplication in delta runs.
Quanum Practice Management
Patient Record (Guarantor)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1When the guarantor (responsible party) differs from the patient, the guarantor's name and address map to a Salesforce Account record. The Account record type is set to 'Practice' or 'Patient Guarantor' to distinguish it from commercial Account records. Patient Contacts are linked via AccountId lookup.
Quanum Practice Management
Appointment
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task / Event
1:1Quanum appointments contain provider name, appointment type, duration, and status. These map to Salesforce Events for scheduled visits with start/end times, or Tasks for unscheduled callbacks. Appointment status (Confirmed, Cancelled, No-Show) maps to Salesforce Task status or Event subject prefix for quick filtering.
Quanum Practice Management
Insurance Record
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Insurance Object + Account
1:1Quanum stores insurance carrier, plan type, group number, and member ID per patient. We create a custom Insurance__c object with a lookup to Account (carrier) and to Contact (patient). Member_ID__c, Group_Number__c, Plan_Type__c, and Eligibility_Status__c are custom fields. Insurance carrier names load as Account records of type 'Insurance Carrier' first.
Quanum Practice Management
Billing Claim
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Billing_Claim__c Object
1:1Quanum charge records, claim status, payment postings, and denial codes do not have a Salesforce standard equivalent. We create Billing_Claim__c with a lookup to Contact (patient), Account (guarantor), and Insurance__c (carrier). Fields include Claim_Number__c, Service_Date__c, Charge_Amount__c, Payment_Amount__c, Denial_Reason__c, and Status__c.
Quanum Practice Management
Lab Order
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Lab_Order__c Object
1:1Quest Diagnostics lab orders attached to Quanum patients migrate to a custom Lab_Order__c object. The object links to Contact and includes Order_Date__c, Test_Code__c, Test_Name__c, Result_Value__c, Result_Date__c, and Result_Status__c. If Quest's Quanum Lab Services Manager API is active, we map the external lab order ID for traceability.
Quanum Practice Management
Referring Provider
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact (Referrer record type)
1:1Quanum's referring provider list maps to Salesforce Contacts with a custom RecordType of 'Referring Provider'. Provider name, NPI number, specialty, address, and phone transfer as standard and custom Contact fields. The referring provider Contact is linked to the patient Contact via a custom Referring_Provider__c lookup on the patient Contact record.
Quanum Practice Management
CCDA Document
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Salesforce Files (ContentDocument / ContentVersion)
1:1Quanum exports patient Continuity of Care Documents as XML files. We download each CCDA, upload it as a Salesforce File (ContentVersion with FirstPublishLocationId pointing to the patient Contact), and store the original filename as a custom Content_Title__c field. This preserves the ONC-compliant clinical summary for reference without rebuilding it in Salesforce fields.
Quanum Practice Management
Practice / Facility
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account (Facility record type)
1:1Quanum's practice or facility record maps to a Salesforce Account with a custom 'Facility' record type. Facility name, address, phone, and tax ID transfer as Account fields. Multiple locations create multiple Account records. Provider staff Contacts are associated to the relevant Facility Account via the AccountId field.
Quanum Practice Management
Staff / User Record
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact (Staff record type) + Salesforce User
1:1Quanum staff records lack email addresses in the standard export. We match staff by name against Salesforce Users if email is available, otherwise create Contact records with a custom 'Staff' record type. Staff Contacts without Salesforce User assignments receive a Staff_Role__c custom field and are flagged for manual user provisioning in Salesforce.
Quanum Practice Management
Encounter / Visit Note
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Encounter__c Object / Event
1:1Clinical encounter notes from Quanum migrate as a custom Encounter__c object linked to Contact (patient) and Contact (provider). Fields include Encounter_Date__c, Chief_Complaint__c, Diagnosis_Codes__c (ICD-10), and Notes__c. If the note contains only free text with no structured data, it is stored as a Salesforce Note attached to the Contact.
Quanum Practice Management
Prescription Record
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Prescription__c Object
1:1Quanum prescription data (medication name, dosage, prescriber, date, pharmacy) migrates to a custom Prescription__c object with a lookup to Contact (patient) and Contact (prescriber). Fields include Medication_Name__c, Dosage__c, Frequency__c, Pharmacy__c, and Written_Date__c. Controlled substance details are stored in encrypted custom fields for HIPAA compliance.

Migration approach
Parse Quanum Microsoft Access export and extract CCDA attachments
FlitStack AI connects to the Quanum Microsoft Access .mdb database using a read-only connection. We extract all tables (patients, appointments, insurance, billing, lab orders, providers, facilities) and write them to an intermediate CSV representation. We separately download all CCDA XML files associated with patient records and pair them to patient IDs for later Salesforce Files upload. This step produces a data manifest showing record counts per object so your team can verify completeness before any transformation begins.
Design Salesforce custom object schema and create fields in sandbox
Based on the extracted data model, FlitStack delivers a custom object schema document listing every custom object, field name, data type, pick-list value set, and relationship required in Salesforce. Your admin creates Insurance__c, Billing_Claim__c, Lab_Order__c, Encounter__c, and Prescription__c objects in a Salesforce sandbox first. We validate the schema in sandbox before any production migration run so field-level mapping can be tested end-to-end.
Build owner resolution map from Quanum staff IDs to Salesforce User IDs
Quanum staff records are extracted and matched to Salesforce Users by name. Where email is present, we use email matching. Where email is absent, we generate a bulk owner mapping worksheet listing every Quanum staff ID, name, and role alongside a Salesforce User lookup field for your admin to complete. Any patient or appointment without a resolved owner receives a designated fallback Contact owner and is flagged in the migration report for post-migration reassignment.
Run sample migration with field-level diff in Salesforce sandbox
We migrate a representative slice — typically 200–500 records per object — into the Salesforce sandbox first. The field-level diff report shows every source field, the mapped Salesforce field, the transferred value, and any transformation applied. You verify that patient demographics landed correctly, insurance carriers resolved as Account records, billing claims linked to the right Contact, and CCDA files attached to the correct patient. Any mapping errors are corrected before the full run commits.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window and audit log
The full migration runs against production Salesforce using Bulk API 2.0 for high-volume objects (Contacts, Events) and REST API for custom objects with complex relationship requirements. A delta-pickup window — typically 24–48 hours after the initial export date — captures any records created or modified in the Quanum system during the cutover period. Every operation is logged to an audit CSV: source record ID, destination record ID, operation type, timestamp, and user. One-click rollback is available if record counts or relationship integrity checks fail post-migration.
Validate record counts, relationship integrity, and CCDA attachment linking
Post-migration validation compares source record counts against Salesforce record counts for every object. Relationship integrity checks verify that every Billing_Claim__c record has a valid ContactId lookup, every Lab_Order__c links to a Contact, and every Insurance__c record has both a carrier Account and a patient Contact. CCDA file attachments are spot-checked for correct ContentDocument linking. FlitStack delivers a validation summary report and a remediation worksheet for any records that failed validation rules.
