MEMBERS: CURRENT FEDERAL HEALTH REFORM RESOURCES
OAHHS partners with the American Hospital Association (AHA) and with other state, regional, and metropolitan associations in representing hospitals and health systems across the country. AHA provides strong leadership in the development and coordination of activities in federal relations, policy development, education, research, and other priority areas.
The AHA is the voice of hospitals and health systems in Washington, earning respect and attention from political and opinion leaders and the media. AHA's vigilant focus on federal relations, policy and communications has resulted in a strong record of changing the thinking of Congress and the executive branch.
Often, AHA plays a key role in building coalitions among other national organizations to amplify our message. By advocating in the courts and in the halls of Congress, providing national leadership on legal issues that affect health care, and acting forcefully on quality and accreditation issues, we bring the hospital and health system voice to bear on decisions that affect them.
