Community Health Needs Assessments: Getting More Value for Your Community and Your Hospital

In addition to identifying priority health needs and aligning partners and resources to address community needs, CHNAs are a vital tool for informing population health management. Your CHNA will provide valuable data to direct resources toward high-risk populations, identify opportunities to enhance care delivery, inform patient engagement initiatives and direct overall strategic planning.

In this joint HPOE and ACHI webinar, CHNA experts discuss ways to build upon your previous CHNA to bring more value to your community and your hospital. Specific examples are presented on how hospitals are using CHNAs to inform population health management initiatives and on the intersection between community health needs and care delivery.
