Misys awarded Big Apple storage pact

Misys Healthcare Systems has signed with New York City Health & Hospitals Corp. (HHC) to use Misys' Data Warehouse.

Data Warehouse is designed as an advanced clinical decision support application that provides outcomes management tools for critical data analysis. The system helps healthcare providers to monitor, report and improve clinical practice across the healthcare enterprise. Clinicians also can analyze clinical and operational data by patient populations and perform data mining and retrospective clinical decision support.

HHC is integrating Misys Data Warehouse with Misys CPR (computerized patient record) at six of THC's healthcare networks.

 Misys is based on Raleigh, N.C.
