"Vy is a proven leader in the healthcare space and a perfect match for our team," said Ryan Howard, CEO of Practice Fusion. "There are hundreds of thousands of doctors, nurses and practice staff members making the switch from paper charts to Electronic Medical Records in the next few years and millions of patients who want to take control of their health data. Vy is going to show them the way."

Prior to joining Practice Fusion, Vy was the Chief Operations Officer for Current Health Medical Group, which she held since 2006. Working directly with physicians and patients, Vy led Current Health's innovation in patient-driven healthcare, medical technology and primary care delivery.

"I'm excited to be a part of the solution. Being in the trenches with physicians and private practices over the last four years, I became quite intimate with the challenges physicians and their staff faced in providing quality healthcare due to lack of funds or systems," said Vy. "Practice Fusion removes the barrier to quality patient care by providing doctors a free solution to the day-to-day operational challenges. "

• Joined Practice Fusion May 1, 2010 as Vice President of Training

• Continuing as a board member of Current Health and Private Medical Marketing Group
