ATLANTA -- NOTE: In a recent press release, Surgical Information Systems (SIS) indicated that its technology solution for the surgery department was selected by Bronx-Lebanon Hospital Center as part of a total enterprise package through a strategic partnership with Eclipsys.

We regret this error, and have republished the corrected press release below.

"Once we got involved, we identified the need for tailored, prompt and comprehensive reporting capabilities; without them, it is impossible for hospitals to make significant clinical, operational and financial process improvements in the O.R." added L'Heureux.
