As your trusted voice, we led successful advocacy efforts to: • Secure state funding for hospitals and defeat Medicaid cuts • Address problems in the state’s Medicaid Managed Care Program • Defeat the repeal of the Affordable Care Act TRUSTED RESOURCE Our business lines serve as a trusted resource for IHA members and a growing number of non-acute organizations, returning millions of dollars in dividends and providing valuable cost-saving measures. Several IHA quality and performance improvement initiatives saw positive results—from the federally funded Great Lakes Partners for Patients Hospital Improvement Innovation Network to the Midwest Alliance for Patient Safety, an IHA company.
