Tufts Medical Center & NEQCA receive EHR Adoption Award

Tufts Medical Center and New England Quality Care Alliance (NEQCA) were awarded the eHealth (eHI) Organization of the Year-Adoption Award.  This is very exciting news for NEQCA and Tufts Medical Center!

The award was presented to Dr. Jeffrey Lasker, CEO/CMO of NEQCA and Eric Beyer, CEO of Tufts Medical Center Physician Organization, at the eHealth Initiative 2010 Annual Conference and Awards Reception in Washington, DC on January 25, 2010.

NEQCA is very unique as one of the first physician networks to implement one system across community and academic providers, believing that a single EHR system across our entire network will help us to integrate and coordinate care better and achieve high patient experience.  Our focus on minimizing cost and practice disruption and on achieving our business strategy differentiated us for this award.  This remarkable strategy has been recognized in this award.
