Project ECHO at UVA
Make an Appointment
Project ECHO® (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) helps democratize medical knowledge and develops specialty care capacity in underserved communities. At UVA, Project ECHO programs use Zoom® videoconferencing technology to connect our specialists to primary care providers around Virginia.
About the Trainings
Our ECHO programs recruit a cohort of participants for regular remote mentoring sessions, usually weekly or biweekly. Each session is comprised of a brief didactic presentation by the specialist expert, followed by the presentation and discussion of de-identified sample cases. The specialist experts act as mentors, training community providers to provide care in clinical areas previously outside their expertise.
Learn more: Watch the ECHO video.
CME Credits
Most sessions offer continuing medical education (CME) credits, maintenance of certification (MOC) credits, and continuing nursing education (CNE) credits.
