Syracuse, NY -- Upstate Medical’s hospitals and vast network of outpatient facilities are operating as normal Wednesday morning following a major tech outage less than 24 hours before, officials said. The phone and computer outage in the noontime hour Tuesday brought the hospital network to its knees, canceling all outpatient appointments for the remainder of the day, preventing visitors from seeing loved ones and closing the emergency room to all but the most serious cases.
