title: VA uses Web to share best practice lessons.
abstract: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) established the Virtual Learning Center Web site (www.va.gov/vlc) three years ago to facilitate sharing of "informal knowledge" among health care professionals in the VA's medical centers. The site gives all health care organizations free access to benchmarking and best practice data.
