Electronic Health Record Adoption

Grant Information

We are pleased to announce the grant awards for the second phase of the California Networks for EHR Adoption initiative. The CNEA program was initiated in 2006 to speed adoption and lower the overall cost of electronic health records in California community clinics and health centers. The Blue Shield of California Foundation, the California HealthCare Foundation and the Community Clinics Initiative, a joint project of Tides and The California Endowment, are funding this project. In 2006, each organization committed approximately $1.5 million to a three-year effort to assist community clinics in implementing EHR systems in a networked fashion.

The following chart lists CNEA Grantees for the most recent round of funding completed in 2008:
