2008 IHA Hospital Community Benefits ReportIntroduction and OverviewWhat Are Community Benefits?Results TableMedicare/Medicaid and Bad Debt
The IHA Community Benefits survey results are a voluntary effort undertaken by IHA to collect information about the benefits Iowa hospitals return to their communities. Community benefits are programs and services that address identified community health needs, regardless of source or availability of payment, and provide measurable improvement in health care access, health status, and the use of health care resources. Community benefits are those services that go beyond direct, mission-driven patient care activities.
