at low-cost in an environment that encourages
rapid best practice adoption Strategy Simplify
EHR acquisition, drive public sector adoption,
and promote rural economic development
In October, 2006, Virginia invested 150K in the

The VHEN Charter
Following an initial summit in Richmond with
Virginia payers and providers discussing scope
and focus for a Virginia Administrative Exchange

charter in October 2007 charter members include
9 health plans and 7 health systems including
MCV, UVA, Riverside, Anthem-Wellpoint, Aetna, and
DMAS

Seeding Innovation
Evidence-Based Medicine a Key Pillar of
Innovative Programs
Finalists Award Expected Winter 2008
Health Plan IT-Related Services Virginia
Department of Human Resources
  • DHRM has accepted an unsolicited proposal under
    the PPEA act to provide wrap-around services for
    the Employee Health Plan
  • Many firms have proposed to lower costs for the
    Commonwealth by creating a data warehouse with
    business intelligence and a customer service
    center to help advise state employees on the
    intervention that will most likely resolve their
    problem at the lowest cost
  • Goal to prevent duplicative care and minimize
    challenges felt by employees navigating the
    complex healthcare system

DHRMs comprehensive care management vision is
truly ground breaking. Once operational, it will
mark COVA as a leader among state employee
medical plans and private industry Joe

Case Study Delivering Better Cardiac Care
Situation Patient John Smith has a heart attack
and is cared for by Dr. Cardiologist X whose
practice is enrolled in IC3 Value Following
discharge, during a follow-up visit, Dr. X is
prompted to ask
1) Have you truly stopped smoking? 2) Are you
enrolled in a cardiac rehab program? 3) If yes,
are you taking the beta blockers, aspirin, and
clopidigrel as recommended? If not, why
not? Transition Data uploaded directly to Heart
House and clinical guidelines available
real-time Outcomes Dr. X can document Patient
Smiths performance over time and allow the Heart
House to continuously improve guidelines based on
aggregated data
