provide the development and systems integration expertise to build
the new and improved EHR. The product will optimize the user

“We are excited about the possibilities that this alliance with

EHR while continuing to support and enhance Allscripts Sunrise™,
the EHR platform currently in use at the 19 Northwell hospitals and
