2018 Advocacy Agenda
America’s hospitals and health systems are shaping our future to fulfill our vision of a society of healthy communities where all individuals reach their highest potential for health.
To reach that vision, the AHA and our members are committed to:
- Coverage and access for all;
- High-value care;
- Patients, families and other stakeholders being involved as partners;
- Well-being and prevention; and
- Providing services in a coordinated, seamless manner.
For 2018, we have developed a forward-thinking advocacy agenda to positively influence the environment for patients, communities and the health care field. We will work hand in hand with our members; the state, regional and metropolitan hospital associations; national health care organizations; and other stakeholders to develop and implement an advocacy strategy to fulfill our vision.
