The following is a transcript of a voicemail that was delivered to certain employees of Allscripts on June 9, 2010:
Good morning. This is Glen Tullman. I have some exciting news to share with you.
Early this morning we announced that Allscripts and Eclipsys have agreed to merge, creating the clear leader in healthcare information technology, with the most comprehensive solution offering for healthcare organizations of every size and setting. Eclipsys is an industry-leading provider of solutions and services for hospitals that is known for having the highest Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) utilization in the market.
The bottom line is that this merger will form one company with the industry’s largest network of clients on the most advanced product platform resulting in a single patient record. One network, one platform, one patient. That’s a great vision and it is going to quickly become a reality.
To give you a perspective on the scale of this agreement, our combined company will now have the largest client base in healthcare … 180,000 physicians, 1,500 hospitals and 10,000 post acute care organizations. Incredible.
So this is exciting news. It means new opportunities for our company, for our clients and for you. There are a few ways for you to get more information:
First - look in your inbox for an email from me. It describes the merger in more detail and it will point you to our merger website at www.oneallscriptseclipsys.com.
Second - join us for a companywide Town Hall Meeting this morning at 11am Eastern. During the meeting, Phil Pead, Eclipsys’s Chief Executive Officer, and I will share the details of the agreement, the strategic rationale and our vision for the combined with employees of both organizations. I’ve known Phil for years and watched him successfully operate a number of technology companies in this space. He became Chief Executive Officer of Eclipsys after successfully running Per-Se for a number of years.
Instructions for joining the conference call are in the email.
So, again, great news for all of us but, more importantly, for our clients and healthcare. Please look for my email, visit the website, and plan to join us for the Town Hall.
Have a great day and I look forward to connecting with you later.
