CHA’s mission is to advance the health of individuals and our communities. We do this by leading, representing, and serving hospitals and healthcare providers across the continuum of care that are accountable to the community and committed to health improvement.
CHA is focused on supporting healthcare workers, patients, and care delivery for every Connecticut resident.
The latest legislative testimony from the Connecticut Hospital Association.
CHA works collaboratively with lawmakers to advance policies that best support healthcare.
Every year, hospitals across the state provide care and services to millions of patients.
Connecticut hospitals are being asked to shoulder higher state taxes even as the state does little to invest in patient care. That means fewer resources at the bedside, harder choices for hospitals, and rising healthcare costs.
An outstanding hospital system is one that not only supports patient well-being but also invests in local communities by partnering with others to improve health outcomes.
Birthing hospitals across the state are providing postpartum patients with an orange bracelet as a reminder to watch for urgent maternal warning signs and get help quickly if they appear.
