History
Allscripts began in 1986 as a medications management company. In 1997, the company began focusing on information technology, and in 1998 launched an electronic prescribing solution for physicians. In the following years, Allscripts acquired a series of ambulatory electronic medical record companies.[9]
Medic Computer Systems was founded in 1982 and later began offering practice management solutions to physician practices. The company was acquired by Misys Group in November 1997 and became Misys Physician Systems in 2002. Later in 2002, the company entered the home health and hospice information technology markets through the acquisition of Home Care Information Systems. In 2005, the company became Misys Healthcare Systems and, that same year, acquired Payerpath to bolster its practice management and revenue cycle management offerings.[10]
Eclipsys was founded in 1995 by Harvey Wilson. In 2008, Eclipsys acquired physician practice management software company MediNotes.[11] In 2010, Eclipsys announced a strategic partnership with Microsoft, in which the companies will share technology and promote healthcare information technology interoperability.[12]
