CHICAGO, Aug. 01, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In the second quarter of 2016, Wyckoff Heights Medical Center expanded its relationship with Allscripts MDRX by selecting the Sunrise solution to replace its legacy electronic health record (EHR) and provide an integrated patient record and support revenue cycle management.
