The CHNA Opportunity in the ACA
• Community health needs assessments (CHNA)
are now required every three years of
not-for-profit health entities in order to
maintain their tax-free status
• CHNA and implementation strategy required
for each facility
Atlanta Regional Collaborative for Health Improvement
The CHNA Opportunity in the ACA
• CHNA:
– A description of “community” and how it was
determined
– A description of process and methods, including
data used and information gaps
– A description of how input was gathered from
those with a broad interest in the community
– A prioritized list of community health needs,
including how the list was prioritized
Atlanta Regional Collaborative for Health Improvement
The CHNA Opportunity in the ACA
• Implementation plan:
– Must describe how each health need
identified in the CHNA will be met, or
– Describe identified needs that will not be met
by that hospital and why
– Must be approved by a governing body
– Collaboration is encouraged

1959 – We have long known that health care facilities should be adapted to the
patients rather than the opposite.
1967 - To avoid becoming sick may be the greatest health and medical challenge
to contemporary society.
1968 - Sooner or later some group will find out how to build, organize and
operate a hospital which will be better and more flexible than at present, and
at a lower cost.
1968 - The greatest opportunity people have to achieve and maintain good
health and well-being, at the lowest possible cost, is by their own intelligent
methods of daily living habits.
1969 - We need to develop a health care system which will be recognized as
distinct from medical care. This is a real key to solving our “medical problem.”
1969 - We must have substantially new manners of thinking to enable mankind
to bridge the gap between the things that have been and the things which will
be.

•
Unsustainable program financing
•
Spreading resources over too many initiatives
•
Lopsided investments downstream or upstream
•
Triggering “supply push” responses to declining
utilization
•
Exacerbating capacity bottlenecks
•
Perpetuating inequity
•
Neglecting or focusing only on disadvantaged, children,
or seniors
•
Pursuing narrow goals and short-term impacts
•
Concentrating only on small sub-systems

•
Hard to see the bigger system and where things/we fit
Stakeholders see different problems and solutions
Stakeholders speak different languages
Don’t recognize that not all solutions are equal – good / bad
Real conversations about money, priorities, strategy, etc. are difficult
Alignment from the community to policy levels is challenging
Pressure for short term results with limited evidence for better planning
System is complex and hard to predict
