EHR Imports

Interested in importing your client data? Start here!

Written by Catherine Yanowski

We make it easy to bring your existing client data into Blueprint through a secure and structured import process. During the import, client demographic information and any clinical documentation associated with each client profile can be seamlessly carried over into Blueprint, helping you get set up quickly without losing important historical records.

All EHR imports are:

  • Encrypted and HIPAA-compliant

  • Processed only by trained staff

  • Deleted after migration is complete

🚀 How to Start an Import

To begin your import:

  1. Go to Settings

  2. Select EHR Import (located under “My Account” in the left sidebar)

  3. Choose your current EHR

  4. Follow the prompts and upload your export file (typically a .zip file)

📋 Supported EHRs

You can currently import data from:

  • SimplePractice

  • TheraNest

  • TherapyNotes

If your EHR is not listed, rest assured that we’re actively working on adding additional import options in the future!

📁 EHR-Specific Instructions

SimplePractice

Important: When exporting from SimplePractice, you must select “Complete” export.

This ensures your export includes:

  • Client contact information

  • Documentation and clinical data

Exports using “Sessions” or “Contacts” only will be missing key information.

Follow SimplePractice’s export instructions here:

Once exported, upload the resulting .zip file in Blueprint.


TheraNest

To import from TheraNest:

  • Enter your TheraNest login credentials during the import process

  • These credentials are used securely and deleted once the import is complete


TherapyNotes

To import from TherapyNotes:

  • Enter your TherapyNotes login credentials during setup

  • These credentials are securely removed after import completion

  • It’s recommended to log out of TherapyNotes during the import, as remaining logged in may cause pauses or interruptions


⏳ Upload Limits & Timing

  • Maximum upload size: 10 GB per zip file

    • If needed, large exports may be split into multiple files

  • Imports are typically quite fast, but some can take 24–48 hours

    • Larger datasets may take longer


⚠️ Important Notes

  • TheraNest and TherapyNotes imports can only run one export at a time

    • This is intentional to prevent system overload

    • Overnight processing may be required

  • During import, clinicians may be temporarily logged out of their non-Blueprint EHR account

  • After upload, you’ll review a client matching screen:

    • On this screen, you’ll match clients from your previous EHR to their corresponding profiles in Blueprint.

    • You may also see an option to import client contacts as separate clients. To ensure your documentation is correctly linked, we recommend not importing contacts as clients, as this can result in records being associated with the incorrect client chart.

  • Contacts can be added manually to the client profiles later


If you run into any issues during the import process, our support team is happy to help!
