Trustee Education Certification
IHA has provided a framework to support Iowa hospitals in developing effective board members. IHA has designed the governance education certification program to help hospitals use governance best practices, promote the coordination of care and the best use of resources and demonstrate to lawmakers, regulators, physicians, employees, the business community and other community stakeholders that Iowa hospitals:
- Understand and embrace the need for governance accountability.
- Govern according to a standard of excellence.
- Are willing to formally certify their adherence to governance best practices.
- Are committed to coordination of resources in their communities.
- Embrace community accountability and transparency.
- Structure their community benefit and outreach programs to meet identified community needs.
- Utilize data from IHA to identify and address areas of need, especially regarding the uninsured and underinsured.
- Utilize performance data to identify opportunities for improvement and monitor progress that improves quality and safety.
- Integrate local health efforts with state programs.
