NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital Uses Eclipsys` Remote Hosting Services

Successful Migration Coincides with Sunrise Clinical Manager Upgrade; Enables
Hospital to Focus on Applications While Gaining System Performance and
Predictive IT Expenditures

ATLANTA--(Business Wire)--
Eclipsys Corporation® (NASDAQ:ECLP), The Outcomes Company®, today announced that
NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital (NewYork-Presbyterian), one of the nation`s
largest not-for-profit, non-sectarian hospitals, has successfully migrated a
significant portion of its enterprise-wide information technology (IT) server
processing and storage infrastructure to Eclipsys` Remote Hosting Services.
Coinciding with the migration of mission-critical applications to the Eclipsys
Technology Solutions Center in New Jersey, NewYork-Presbyterian also upgraded to
the latest version of the Sunrise Clinical Manager suite of solutions in use at
the Hospital`s five major medical centers.

"Electing to have a portion of our technology infrastructure hosted offsite is
cost effective and removes the burden of day-to-day maintenance. This allows us
to focus on making improvements to applications that help our clinicians deliver
high quality patient care," said Aurelia G. Boyer, senior vice president and
chief information officer, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital. "Eclipsys has made
this migration seamless and cost-effective."

High Level of System Availability and Predictive Expenditures

By opting to use Eclipsys` Remote Hosting Services applications for systems
formerly housed within the Hospital, NewYork Presbyterian also gains a level of
system availability backed by the source of its software, along with monitoring,
reporting, disaster recovery and response-time warranties for a predictable
monthly service fee Remote hosting is intended to reduce IT infrastructure
expenditures and open up valuable floor space currently occupied by hardware
devoted to Eclipsys within the Hospital`s internal data center.

NewYork-Presbyterian joins a growing number of hospitals that have elected to
outsource the hosting of a portion of their IT infrastructure to Eclipsys.
Currently 40 percent of the Eclipsys` U.S.-based clients rely upon its
world-class, ISO 9001:2000-certified, 24/7 data center to provide mission
critical application performance, customer support, security and disaster
recovery. With Eclipsys Remote Hosting Services, clients can offload all or part
of their server processing and storage infrastructure to Eclipsys, which
provides access to powerful CPU processing, fast storage and dedicated
point-to-point communications.

"In the rapidly changing healthcare technology market, maintaining an up-to-date
IT infrastructure is difficult on a day-to-day basis, let alone when a hospital
or health system endeavors to enhance current system functionality," said John
McAuley, Eclipsys` senior vice president, Outsourcing and Support. "The great
challenge in finding experienced and knowledgeable IT resources to assure system
availability makes Eclipsys remote hosting services an attractive option. We
provide the experience and scale to help our clients accelerate the value from
their investment in technology with a predictable price and a track record of
positive outcomes."
