The West Virginia Medical Institute (a member of the Quality Insights family of companies that includes Quality Insights of Pennsylvania/PA REACH), the Claude Worthington Benedum Foundation, CAMC Institute, and Partners in Health Network are teaming up to offer a FREE two-day learning session aimed at helping primary care practices position themselves for success in the changing healthcare environment.

Centering on Quality Care for Patients, Transforming Health Care for the Future, scheduled for September 18-19, 2015 at The Resort at Glade Springs in Daniels, WV, will focus on value based purchasing and the benefits of achieving Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) status. PCMH is offered by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) and signifies that a medical practice has implemented a number of standards and processes around quality and efficiency of care.
