Oct. 13, 2009 (Business Wire) -- Eclipsys Corporation^® (NASDAQ:ECLP), The Outcomes Company^®, today announced upcoming highlights for its 2009 Eclipsys User Network (EUN) Outcomes Conference, October 14-17 in Dallas, TX. The EUN conference creates an annual forum of thousands of Eclipsys user representatives from world-renown healthcare systems, including 40 percent of “America’s Best Hospitals,” according to the U.S. News & World Report’s 2009 ranking. The elite community of Eclipsys users also represents 45 percent of all organizations accepted into the Magnet Recognition Program®, which recognizes health care organizations that provide nursing excellence.

New this year to EUN is an executive leadership agenda to provide details of Eclipsys’ American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA) programs, including special available financing, the company’s ARRA-HITECH warranty and a preview of the Sunrise Enterprise™ 5.5 solution, slated as Eclipsys’ ARRA 2011 Certified EHR (electronic health record) Technology.

With more than 160 sessions scheduled over the course of four days, this year’s EUN also will feature new Oncology, Pediatrics, and Academic specialty tracks, reflecting the fact that Eclipsys offers some of the most advanced computerized physician order entry (CPOE) functionality in the market, including support for complicated treatment plans commonplace in oncology and pediatric care environments. Eclipsys was cited in the KLAS CPOE Digest 2009: Meaningful Use and Physician Adoption report (KLAS CPOE Digest 2009) issued by KLAS Enterprises, Inc. (KLAS), as having invested more time and effort in building an oncology extension into its clinical information system than other companies due to its physician adoption formula.

• A company update from Eclipsys President and CEO, Phil Pead;
• An overview of the freely available Eclipsys Outcomes Toolkits, which support Eclipsys client collaboration and sharing of best practices for care, including the company’s HINI Toolkit developed in April 2009;
