Protect patient care and access.
Connecticut hospitals advocate for policies that protect healthcare access, affordability, and equity.
Advocacy through CHA remains vital to amplifying the collective voices of hospitals and health systems across the state on key issues, especially as they face ongoing challenges.
CHA is an unwavering, highly respected force and voice at the state Capitol when it comes to advocating for patients, hospitals, healthcare providers, and supporting strong and healthy communities.
CHA has been at the forefront working with partners across the continuum to ensure state policymakers understand the challenges hospitals and other providers face every day and the critical value of keeping hospitals and the healthcare delivery system sustainable so they can continue supporting healthy communities and a strong state – providing high-quality care 24/7, supporting nearly 260,000 jobs, and bolstering the economy and local communities.
Protecting Medicaid
Ensuring that the state Medicaid program pays rates that cover the cost of care is a critical piece of ongoing advocacy, as is working with state and community partners to build a future in which Medicaid works better for all people and communities.
Protecting Patients
CHA remains focused on monitoring and providing guidance on federal policy changes under a new administration and being a critical partner to the state in
protecting patient care, especially as states face federal changes to Medicaid.
