The Connecticut Hospital Association (CHA)
has been dedicated to representing and serving Connecticut's hospitals since it was established in 1919. While CHA's membership has expanded to other health-related member organizations over the past 88
years, its core focus remains hospital advocacy, representation, and services.
CHA's services are divided into two broad categories of Advocacy and Member Services.
Advocacy is the core of CHA's business and is its primary and most critical function.
CHA engages in advocacy on behalf of its members on both state and national level,
providing input into the various legislative, regulatory and other processes that impact
hospitals. CHA's advocacy efforts are classified into four areas: Finance, Patient Care
Regulation, Quality and Performance Reporting, and Human Resources.
CHA's Member Services are businesses and activities that CHA developed at different
times in response to particular membership needs. |
