For those that have visited our site in the past, you will see that we have redesigned our site.  If you tried to visit our site in the last several days, you noticed that our site was down.  This was due  to our hosting company going out of business.  We took that opportunity to redesign the site and switch hosting service.  We will be working on expanding the site in the weeks to come.

The Physicians' Electronic Health Record Coalition (PEHRC) represents over 600,000 physicians, through its over 20 medical society members, in the arena of health information technology. This coalition helps physicians, particularly those in small- and medium-sized ambulatory care medical practice, to acquire and use affordable, standards-based electronic health records (EHRs) and other health information technology to improve quality, enhance patient safety, and increase efficiency.  PEHRC is committed to taking practical steps to educate physicians about the value and best use of EHRs, to help them select systems, and to focus the market on high-quality and affordable products.

Mission Statement
