Though I have bad mouthed Misys a tad (my sincere apologies), I wish them both all the success as a merger. Best wishes to both, and may you have great success. Their products are great, they deserve to move forward. Best of luck! Regards! I truly enjoyed and appreciated the transcriapt from Glen Tullman, Allscripts, chat session.

Attach it to HIMSS? Not a good idea. HIMSS is already out of control and a good ole boy system of rubbing elbows. At least at AHIMA we still get CE credits and information that is actual useful.

I chuckle b/c at Misys, it was always the number of clients sold. Even if a customer left (which has been known to happen over the last few years), it was never reflected in the number of providers. Also, if you sold the product into a 200 doc IPA, but only 5 docs were using, I'll let you guess how many docs were counted in the total physicians using Misys products. I'd love to know the true number of "prospects" that Allscripts has. I sincerely doubt it is 90,000 physicians.

So how did they measure this? “Eclipsys announces that the University of Michigan Health System recently deployed Sunrise Acute Care across its 913-bed system and has seen a 29% decrease in medical errors.”
