WA hospital receives a donation, can now implement an EHR system
EHR Connection, January 6, 2005
Sky Valley Family Medicine clinic in Sultan, WA, will implement a new electronic health records system using $80,000 of donation money from the Valley General Hospital Foundation, reports the Seattle Times.
The clinic was recently sold to a group of local doctors and is affiliated with Valley General Hospital.
"It's a priority for the hospital board to provide quality care for patients and the doctors," hospital spokeswoman Tina Ross told the Times. "Money is so very tight at the hospital that if the foundation isn't doing what it's doing, we wouldn't have this new technology."
