The West Virginia Medical Foundation is very appreciative of the support of the Physicians' Foundation for Health Systems Excellence to establish the Center for Electronic Health Best Practices.  In the interest of improving the efficiency of patient care, the safety of that care, and its affordability, the West Virginia Medical Foundation is committed to helping physicians improve patient care and outcomes through health information technology.  Specifically, we want to enhance the adoption and networking of electronic health record technology in West Virginia.
