St. Luke’s Medical Center Selects Allscripts Sunrise™
Allscripts client in Philippines to provide first-of-its-kind acute care services
CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#cardiology–St. Luke’s Medical Center, located in the Philippines, has selected Allscripts (NASDAQ: MDRX) Sunrise™ Acute Care as its electronic health record (EHR) to achieve the goal of standardization across its facilities via a single, integrated EHR. St. Luke’s Medical Center further represents the company’s growing momentum in territories outside of the United States.
St. Luke’s Medical Center is recognized as the leading and most respected healthcare institution in the Philippines, having a total of 1,146 rooms with its Quezon City and Global City sites.

It is the most reliable accrediting body in the medical field that evaluates institutions outside the United States, based on stringent evidence-based global standards. St. Luke’s Quezon City became the first JCI-accredited hospital in the Philippines in 2003. In 2016, it also became the first JCI-accredited academic medical center in the country. St. Luke’s Global City, on the other hand, was granted the JCI accreditation in 2012.

Implementing Allscripts Sunrise EHR will help us achieve this goal by providing a single patient record with standardized data,” said President and CEO Dr. Arturo De La Peña. “In addition, we believe Allscripts Sunrise will help elevate the medical center to the HIMSS EMRAM digital maturity model, significantly improving the quality of care we provide.”
