On Tuesday, a regulatory filing revealed Allscripts expects its adjusted revenue to grow between 5 and 8 percent from 2014 to 2016, higher than the 5 percent growth analysts were expecting, according to an NBC News report.

Although Allscripts’ bookings were down in 2012 and early this year, the company got a boost from increased business in the past two quarters. Allscripts’ biggest customer, Great Lake, N.Y.-based North Shore-LIJ Health System, also extended its contract, according to the report.
