( George Harper presents check to Susan Hill & Dr. Gossom of SJC Health Care Associates)

The SJC Board of Health was the scene on Tuesday for a presentation of a $20,000.00 check to SJ Health Care Associates. The money was in the form of a grant to fund a program to improve, and aid, in the use of digital technology to store and share medical records

The grants have been awarded to ten small physician practices in Washington State, and are intended to aid these practices in the use of this technology. The grant was awarded by First Choice Health Network as a part of a "joint quality initiative between First Choice and Qualis Health", which will provide the support and consultation necessary to utilize the program
