Story Context

As more Americans gain health coverage, hospitals are shifting their charitable dollars towards community health initiatives

The Affordable Care Act’s requirement for nonprofit hospitals to conduct Community Health Needs Assessments (CHNAs) further catalyzes a focus on community health

Most nonprofit hospitals rely on hospital-based data -- such as readmission rates – when conducting CHNAs

Hospitals should look at upstream health factors -- such as access to healthy foods or safe neighborhoods -- to get a complete picture of community health needs
