As Virginia Health Information’s (VHI) new President, I welcome you to our 2020 Annual Report & Strategic Plan Update. In this report, you will find highlights of VHI’s projects, new initiatives, our Strategic Plan and how we united to support care, especially during these uncertain times.

With the spread of COVID-19, many industries and communities had to pivot and adapt to a new world of quarantining, masks and social distancing. In addition, healthcare information has been more crucial than ever in today’s society, and VHI has stepped up to the plate to provide meaningful data for the public. Given the challenges we faced this past year, the need for VHI’s products and services has never been greater. In the face of these challenges, VHI has continued to demonstrate it’s up for the task by consistently providing innovative data solutions aimed at enhancing the quality and value of healthcare delivery, and promoting informed healthcare decisions of consumers and other stakeholders through creation and dissemination of healthcare information.

At Newport News Shipbuilding, I follow our corporate motto of “Hard Stuff, Done Right" and VHI has certainly exemplified a similar mindset this past year. I am honored to be a part of this team, and assist in fulfilling their mission and vision, especially during this critical time.

/s/ TJ Smith
VHI President
