West Virginia Regional Health Information Technology Extension Center (WVRHITEC) has selected health IT software developer athenahealth’s EHR platform athenaClinicals as a Five Star vendor in its EHR Vendor Recognition Program (VRP).

WVRHITEC is a Charleston-based federally funded project to assist health care providers with EHR use and to prepare them to qualify for federal EHR incentive payments.

The center’s VRP is designed to help connect healthcare providers interested in acquiring an EHR system with vendors who have met certain thresholds of clinical functionality and service developed by the WVRHITEC, as well as The Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC) requirements for providers, to achieve meaningful use, athenahealth, of Watertown, Mass., stated.

The WVRHITEC will work closely with athenahealth through the implementation process.
